Depending on how far apart your rooms are, it's not too difficult to wire up a long, flat ribbon ethernet cable[1] between rooms. They usually come with clips to help install it cleanly as a fixture. Then you can just connect it to a separate switch/WiFI access point in the other room and have the same connection speeds. However, if you have two WiFI access points, you'll likely run into radio interference if they don't have mesh capabilities.
I use an 100ft cable to go from living room to basement, and have an mesh AP for each. The Eero devices are relatively affordable compared to Ubiquiti for how powerful they are, if you want a seamless experience using multiple WiFi APs.
