Sounds very similar to my setup. Upstairs is a pair of bedrooms and a large rectangular playroom. Downstairs is the living room and the master. I put my router upstairs on the wall above where the TV is downstairs. I also bought a dual band. I have my firestick set up on the 5G band, and run the phones and tablets on the 2.4G. The computer upstairs is also on the 5G. Both of those are the closest to the router, and usually not running at the same time. You can play with the settings and how you let each device connect. I went with the Archer C7 and didn't spend a ton of money. With the square feet you have and only two story it shouldn't be an issue. I can stream Pandora on the 2.4G connection on my phone way at the back of my yard.
