Looking for a wireless router.

So, finnaly, I am switching ISP's from AT&T to Bright House. I'm currently signed up for 3 Up, and like 0.25 down, but with my new ISP we will be getting 35 up 2 down, which we hope we can see a big difference in. The thing is we arn't going to be buying the router from them to connect into the wall, but rather use our own. We currently have this, which we bought a long time ago and used it. It still works, but there's some weird stuff with it recently, and we probably want to buy something else. Our price range isn't that large, maybe around $50, though it rather has to be a strong router because sadly the wall plug-in is on the exact opposite side of the house of pretty much mine, my brothers, and the guest room's of the house (and there isn't any plugs in those rooms.)

 

So if anyone has any good suggestions, that would be nice. Thanks.

Intel i5-6600k (Cooled by a 212 evo) - Asus Z170-A - Asus Dual OC GTX 1060 - NZXT S340 - WD 1TB (Getting SSD this month, hopefully) - 8GB DDR4-2400

LG G4 - Asus Zenwatch 2

I'd reccomend a linksys router. [i don't know any, but they've been really good for me.}

I tried googling that, I cannot figure out anything lol. Too broad maybe?
