Good routers for lots of devices?

I like ASUS routers/APs

I use a N66U but if I was going to get a new router today, it would be the AC66U, AC68U, or the AC87U

I push my 66U really hard. I am on the Comcast 105 package and I get 130 download near the router and 50 down through several walls and a refrigerator in the farthest part in the house.

Right now we have some crap router/ WAP that just sucks. 

 

We have around 12 wireless devices, about 8 of them running at the same time.

 

We get 55 down soon to be 105 down via comcast. Also we plan to move to google fiber as soon as the finish it here.

 

I need a good WAP that can handle all the devices and has a good connection in my house. The WAP is on the 2nd floor. The house is 2 floors.

 

Thanks for any help.

if you need any advice or assistance with configuring that router, feel free to ask. the configuration is pretty powerful if you know what you're doing. I've set mine up with the USB ports as an FTP server and I have my little sister's tablet set to lose internet at 10:00

I will say that if you are changing any of the wireless settings, I recommend making changes one at a time. at one point a setting I changed cut my downloads to 30mbps on the 5ghz band, but a configuration reset cleared it up.
