Ubiquiti FTTP/Full Fibre connectivity question

[#1]

Hello. If all goes to plan in the near future I'll be getting FTTP/Full Fibre and for various reasons I need to up my WiFi game. A few of my friends have Ubiquiti kit and seem quite happy, so I thought I may join them.

I've been doing a bit of research and I guess I'll be looking at something like UniFi Express or Cloud Gateway with an AP/switch/etc where needed (as Dream Routers seem to be mythicaly rare). I believe they do PPPoE, but do they connect straight to the Openreach ONT, or would I have to do something involving the PlusNet Hub?

@shardlojik as along as they can be configured for PPPoE, then connect straight to the ONT

The YouTube channel "CrossTalk Solutions" has a lot of useful videos on Ubiquiti kit,

this video might be a good place to start from - UniFi Basics: Start the Right Way Without Breaking the Bank!

I am looking at doing the same once I have FTTP. It seems that you just need the equipment below (at least this is what I am going to get):

Unifi Cloud Gateway Max 

Unifi U7 Pro Access Point

Unfit PoE Injector to power the AP as my switch does not do PoE.

I was doing some research yesterday and I pretty much came up with the same kit list (I may add in a further switch, depends on whwer I can get cabling to go). Nice to know I'm on the right track, thanks!

I am planning on putting 1 ap in one of the indicated locations and am hoping it will cover the whole flat which is 90m2 as the ubiquiti access points say they cover 140m2
