  1. I am currently looking for a good router and wi-fi antenna adapter/card for my Desktop, as soon I will be moving home and the new Landlord does not allow me to drill the walls to have a cable in the 'office room'. Living room has plenty of space, but no space for my Destop (so far... dueling with my fiance). The distance from the possible router location and the desktop is between 10-15m with a few walls which are not as thick, something like this in my poorly draw/not to scale blueprint. I still don't really know how will be the behavior for the 5 GHz network, as I am still in my old apartment and a wired connection. Do you guys think that the Asus PCE-AC68 will be good with a good router with beamforming capability such as the TP-Link AC5400 or Asus RT-AC3200 (in case one these are actually good)? The house is bigger than this terrible blueprint, and I also want to have a decent signal in our bedroom (only for phone and browsing on laptop) which is about another 10m and a few more walls further away. My budget for this 'project' is about £300. Edit: In my current apartment the walls have some weird metallic mesh which completely destroys my 4G signal and Wi-Fi inside the place. In the new apartment there is no such thing and I have great 4G inside it inside every room of the house.
