I have yet to deploy any APs in flex connect mode. This is as good a place to start as any as long as it can accomplish the goal.
I wish I could deploy a home mesh wifi solution, but unfortunately this house is a bit like a mullet, business up front party in the back.

I am trying to find information on settings to change and profiles to create to recreate the feel of a home router. My two areas of concern are mDNS and gaming. For mDNS we currently have to define individual services to permit. This SSID has to be open to any device / service that they want to connect: Apple product, Chromecast, speakers, cyborg guinea pigs, whatever... and I'm not sure how to provide that. As for gaming I know devices like the Nintendo Switch use PtP hosting mechanisms to establish some multiplayer games. We opted to dedicate 1-1 public IPs to resolve those issues on campus. At this location there will only be one IP to PAT, but I will still need to ensure devices like the Switch still work. I would appreciate any information or documentation that anyone can provide to point me towards this goal.
