Router / modem help

Go to solution Solved by Blade of Grass,

Just a router with WAN connection :)

With a budget like that you can get pretty much whatever you want.

All of the manufacturers have top of the line models in that price range, so take your pick:

  • Netgear Nighthawk R8000
  • ASUS RT-AC3200
  • D-Link DIR-890L
  • Linksys EA9200

Sup dudes, 

 

I am getting a upgrade in my interwebs next week and i want to have a router to work with it. What do you guys recommend?

 

My network speed as advertised will be : 160 mbits down and 10 mbits up. Cable. Atm i have ADSL 16 mbits down and 0,7 mbits up 

 

My budget around 200-300€. 

Must haves: 

QoS

Dual band or tri band 

2,4 hz and 5Ghz 

Good range 

Maybe a alien UFO

 

have fun searching :D

 

Thanks in advance

Do you need both a modem and router or just a router?

I'd say one of these:

 

TP-LINK Archer C7. Wireless ac1750. Buy it and put the gargoyle firmware on it. I've got experience with gargoyle running on the older N600 version of this and it works amazingly.

gargoyle-firmware.com

 

Leaves you money for something else too! :)

 

edit: It may have QoS already without gargoyle but I can't remember. Haven't used TP-LINK's stock stuff much
