This works very well and AirPort Utility makes the set up drop-dead simple. On the main level, I have an Airport Express that has my AppleTV connected to its WAN port. In my home office and in my bedroom (two different floors) I have two AirPort Extremes that then have my iMac and various other stationary devices connected via a wired connection.

This distribution block then has wires that go to various floors in the house for wired connections. I have my ISP provided router that connects to a simple Ethernet distribution block in the basement with it's four WAN ports. I have a home with thick concrete construction throughout (that is how they are here in Germany) so the signal attenuation is extreme.

I just put keystone jacks on them, labeled the wires and its awesome! The only thing I use wireless for are phones and some HomeKit Accessories that can't be wired in, but all of my computers, AppleTV, the TV itself, etc are all wired in. So I was able to run CAT6 through all of the holes in the floor to the 2nd bedroom closet where the cable modem and router are (kinda like a server closet). Luckily, it's the first floor of a house and I have access to the basement and there are already holes in the floors for the cableTV. This is exactly what I did in my apartment. I would like to run Ethernet out to the garage and to a POE switch where I can have a few outside POE IP camera's on the outside of my garage. That was 5 years ago and I haven't had to touch it sense. That as just getting wires from point A to point B. I was under my house for a couple days running a bunch of Ethernet, COAX cable for the Antenna, and ground wire for a couple rooms as I wanted grounded power outlets. Cutting a hole in the wall for a low voltage box, and connecting to keystones to pop into a wall plate is not hard at all. If you own your own place and can get under under your house or in the attic. These days are you get more and more devices that work only on wifi because of Home control, like myself with a growing Homekit house, getting as much OFF of Wifi that you can is even more important. Ethernet is just going to be faster and more reliable. There are some ways to wire up and be hidden without making holes everywhere. If you rent, generally you're out of luck. There are a number of tricks you can do to wire your house. You can run a single Ethernet cable into a room and then Plug a small 5 port Ethernet switch in that room and then plug all your devices into that and have a small Siwtch in all your rooms instead of a single Large switch. That's it, and you now have more ports depending on how large of a switch you get. Get a switch, and all you have to do is run a Ethernet cable from your router switch into your new Unmanaged Switch. For most home users, you don't need or want a managed switch. 7 ports or like me 24 ports, though I have since gotten a Managed Switch. You can get simple Unmanaged switches for cheap. Your Wifi Router normally has a Ethernet Switch built into it. I have a single ASUS router in that closet that handles my whole house, along with my Cable Modem and NAS and other things. So Xbox or AppleTV, etc that sit there are Plugged in. I always say, things that don't move, PLUG-IN, things that move around on Wifi. All going to keystones in the rooms where you can plug right in.

Some have 2 cables running into the room, some have 4, or more. I have run Cat6 from there into all my rooms. So all my Network stuff I have in that closet. Once got the wire there, I patched it back up as you can do that easy enough with drywall. Can only move around part way in the middle. I ran power to my Closet that is in the middle of my house, but to get power there, I had to cut out the ceiling, fish a power cable to that location because as I said, attic wasn't practical. I ran the cable under my house as my attic was just not practical. One of the first things I did besides throwing up a large Antenna as a cable cutter was to wire my house with Cat6.
