re: Best or Recommended Wifi 6 router with 1900 sq ft house with wifi signal outwards

I'm eventually going to have to get a dedicated ap for my house but haven't decided what I want. I've currently got two old all in one routers I've repurposed as APs but they're fairly old now and require reboots more often than I care for. One of them used to be my gateway but I replaced that with an ERX which for the price is an awesome device.
What I need is something that can cover ~3k sqft over two floors. My network hub is right in the middle of the house so I think I could do it with just one device but I'd be willing to tack on a second ap if it came down to it. Not interested in mesh; I'd hard wire the second ap if I had to go that route. I also really prefer to have multiple SSIDs with different vlans for each. I'm sure I could find what I want I just haven't had the time to really look very hard

Just out of curiosity.. why?
You definitely can't do that with the google wifi unless all you need is private wifi and guest (internet-only) wifi. I'm doubtful you can do it with the Orbi, but it is a bit more advanced so maybe? I 100% do that with the Ruckus Unleashed though. If you also screw around with active directory at home, you can hook it all together with a radius/NPS server and enable 802.1x.
You can always hang two different wifi's off of your network. I personally think a single SSID is the best experience if you have multiple APs.
