re: Simple home networking for beginner

One thing to note about Unifi and TPlink. TPlink's Omada is a single setup point like Ubiquiti's, however with TPlink all their devices can be set up absent of the Omada controller. Ubiquiti you are required to have a controller on the network.

I've personally switched to TPlink instead of ubiquiti because I did not like running the.controller and had issues with the pairing on Ubiquiti. The TPlink devices have a bit of a learning curve to understand, but its not too bad if you want to build your knowledge up over time.
