I'm looking to purchase a new router as my current one is not working correctly.

 

My price is limited to $150, my current speeds are 20down - 1up.

 

I plan to get nbn in the future which will increase my speeds to 100down - 40up.( I live in aus so this quite high for me )

 

 Recommendations?

 

Asus RT-N66U.

http://www.amazon.com/RT-N66U-Dual-Band-Wireless-N900-Gigabit-Router/dp/B006QB1RPY/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1410706899&sr=8-5&keywords=router is probably your best bet. Amazon has it for the cheapest (that I can find)

802.11n: up to 450Mbps ; 802.11a/g: up to 54Mbps; 802.11b: up to 11Mbps

 

There is an updated version http://www.amazon.com/RT-AC66U-Dual-Band-Wireless-AC1750-Gigabit-Router/dp/B008ABOJKS/ref=dp_ob_title_ce but it's over your budget.

Another vote for the Asus RT-N66U as well. It's been a great router for me and I've never had a problem with it dealing with my 50down/10up connection.
