Having a switch at home is something you will need sooner or later. Relying just on a router/ WiFi is not enough. In the best-case scenario, you would get 1GbE wirelessly, but in order to get 10GbE speeds, you need a cable. Either CAT6a or CAT7 or SFP+ type, whichever you like most.Temporarily you can always connect your NAS directly with your computer without a switch. But if it is located somewhere away, closer to the router then switch will be a way to do it.If you have an existing AMPLIFI HD mesh system, Qnap router would just complicate things. Rather get a switch instead of a router. Whichever is the cheapest https://www.qnap.com/en-uk/product/series/switchesYou can then maintain your WiFi6 and 10GbE simultaneously.I hope this helps.
