Dont have a suggestion. But I have expirence with DLink and its craptastic firmware. I know the DIR835 I had did support 3rd party firmware which made that router barable. I have set up an TP Link Archer C7 once upon a time and the firmware was pretty basic.

Thanks for the comment

I added custom firmware because as the router gets old and install custom firmware to get some features

Usb support is optional I edit that post

At this price point, get what you can afford and what is available in your area.

 

When choosing features, wireless AC and MU-MIMO should be included.

WiFi 6

The specs not even complete. Buy a WiFi 6 router now and might loose out later.
