But that was for a corporation with hundreds of IT folks on it and over a thousand servers communicating on it.
I don't know of any ISP's that offer more than 1GBps incoming, so trying to understand what having 2.5GBps wired offers that can't be handled with ease over 750MBps wireless. A mesh system, set up properly will provide coverage over the entire home and yard.

A backup of terrabytes of data from one computer to a Local NAS over the LAN takes much less time and and rarely fails over a very fast wired LAN as opposed to a wireless mesh network.
Also, replacing the phone jacks with Cat 6 jacks is substantially cheaper than a good wireless mesh router system.
