I want to build a home network (a hybrid of wired and wi-fi) for my home, which is 3 stories high, each floor approximately having an area of about a 1000 square feet. I want to connect about 4 PCs ( 2 in the 2nd floor, and 1 each in 1st and 0th floors), a television in the 1st floor, a home theater in the 2nd floor, and there are wireless devices scattered throughout the home.
We have CCTV cameras installed in our house, which upload the feed to a hard drive.
And, I am working on to automate my room ( like switching fan, lights and AC in my room on/off through my smartphone over the network).
The ground floor has an office which has a printer, and my 2nd floor computer has a printer too, which I want to connect over the network so that I can print from any printer from any computer or device I want.
I also want constant backup of all my documents, files, videos bla bla blah, and I also want the CCTVs to connect to my home network.
How can this be done? My best bet is to probably use a home-server, but I'm unsure of what type of server to use and how to connect all the components so that they work flawlessly. I'm not really on a budget here, though I don't want to spend on redundancies.
P.S. I already have two Netgear AC750s and one TP-link single antenna router (I have it in storage and forgot the name) respectively for the two top floors and the ground floor.
I'd really appreciate a connection diagram.
