- That AP is the U7 Pro XGS and it's placed in the center of the room.
- I bought a U7 pro XGS for the garage and I’m in two minds whether I need it or not due to the coverage of the E7 as I still get a good 300Mbps in the garage.

So you’d be fine mounting an XGS on the wall, ideally as high as possible to increase the unobstructed line of sight.
Still need to get the wife to let me properly mount my U7 Pro XGS in the family room for better coverage!
These days, I would use the UCG-Fiber or UCG-Max, a Flex 2.5G PoE w/210W power adapter, and U7 Pro XGs.
