Can anyone give me any advice on Mesh wifi systems?

We are having the loft converted and I need to get wifi up there. It is also at the back of the house where wifi from the existing router is weaker.

So I have been looking at various options and the mesh system appeals over range extenders (which I have tried before and been underwhelmed by).

The problem is that I still need to use ethernet cables for some devices, such as a NAS drive and a streamer.

The question is, can I still use my existing Virgin router to wire said devices to and just use the mesh system for wìfi for other devices like phones and laptops?

I know different mesh systems are configured differently so this may affect the choice of which one to choose.

Cheers
