ribrienI went with a discounted high end wifi 6e router a couple months ago and have been very pleased. Netgear nighthawk RAXE500
shartywaffles0069I did a bunch of searching before I ended up with my nighthawk RAX30, my brother in law is also tech savvy and most of the complaints I read about he confirmed. My nighthawk is at my ex-wives place, I now live with my sister and brother in law and we use his nighthawk RAXE500, their house is a large ranch style home and I have great WiFi all the way across the house. About the same speeds on my Xbox on WiFi that got at my apartment direct wired, but obviously more buffering time. Trying to get them to let me run a cable through the attic to hardwire lol but this does just fine for me. They had an ASUS and a TP link previously and they both were meh.
tazman137Nighthawk, I’ve got a rs700 but the 500 is good too. I wanted the best I could get so I went with a refurb 700. Love it.
Netgear nighthawk. Spend what you can afford for the coverage you need.
240hzghostNetgear Nighthawk AX12 is really great router and can easily handle more than 10 users. Though if you want to change and If budget is not an issue then, I would suggest you to get Mesh Router with Wifi 6 or 6E like TP Link Deco series or Netgear Orbi series.
Yes, definitely Netgear Nighthawk AX12 will perform way better than TP link.
Adventure-BackpackerYou were right. The Netgear blows the TP Link out of the water!
MK_LBrand only matters for the ui you like. Ausu tends to have more controls, netgear is the more "user friendly", tplink is the half way point. Netgear tends to ship with netgear armor or what ever they call it. Good but annoying that once its on you pretty much have to do a reset to factory to get rid of it . Netgear and sus will let you fully control through the web ui and limited controls on a app so you'd have both. I never used the tplink app if they have one so I dont know about how it works. That said, your requirements seem to be wifi 6 and longevity. So really any netgear AFTER r8000 would do what you want. Netgear: R7xxx <-- no Rax50<-- yes So as only as a 2018 ax8; Ax8/ax12 Rax40, rax50, rax200, ect Asus: Rt-ACxx<-- no Rt-AXxx<--yes Rt-ax88u Gt-ax11000 Rt-ax92u Rt-ax58u
