Do you have any wifi6 compatible devices?
I have one. My new phone.

Does your ISP provide higher than gigabit speed?
They do, but I didn't sign up for that plan.

But given that you're considering a mesh system, I'm guessing coverage isn't all that great currently.
It's fine. My teenage boys just want faster Wi-Fi upstairs when they are playing online. I planned on setting them up with an access point upstairs and plugging in the other one downstairs. The main issue I'm going to run into is the builder only put in one wall jack for the fiber into the house and it's in the freaking kitchen. So I have to plug the Nest router into the modem in the kitchen.
My house is a little over 3,000 sq ft so the Nest should offer ample coverage.
Thanks for the advice.

You can have the fiber provider move the ONT to somewhere else for a fee. If your house is relatively new and has phone jacks they were probably wired with CAT5E which you can convert into gigabit ethernet jacks.
