Router, Wireless gaming

[Maikelvn]

Hi guys,

 

I'm considering buying a new router since our old one doesnt support 120 mb/s wireless.

Do you guys know some good reliable routers from around 50 euro's, (70  us dollars) that can deliver good bandwidth.

I am not very familiar myself with routers

 

thanks in advance,

Can you connect one of the ports via Ethernet?

Use Ethernet for gaming never use wireless.

Unfortunatly I cannot get a ethernet cable to my desktop, since my rig is in the attick

I've had nothing but problems trying to run games with wireless. Unless nobody else is using the internet(very rare) I usually get unplayable pings(400ms).

The other people in my house dont use much internet, they watch youtube at most.

How far is this router going to be from your computer in a straight line distance? What's in between?

Can your computer connect to a 5GHz band? it would reduce interference but if the router is far or many walls between 5GHz band might not be a good option.

My room is directly above the router (so 3 meters one ceiling) , and my wifi card supports 5ghz

 

 

edit: did some research and found out my wifi card only supports 2.4 ghz

You can check the Netgear N300 for single band or go to the N600 that supports dual band if you plan to upgrade your wifi card.

Those are for some reason not available in my country, I think I might have found a good alternative. do you guys know if the 

D-Link DGL-4500 Extreme-N 

is a good router?
