Thanks for getting connected.
Yah, I've heard about this one, the Nighthawk Pro, but it is a bit expensive. However, I'm not sure how well it will work with my old PC.

- 4 LAN and 1 WAN Gigabit Ethernet ports
- Powerful WiFi 6 Technology
- Triple-Core 1.5GHz Processor
- Latest DumaOS 3.0 Software
- Up to 5.4Gbps WiFi speeds

I found my XR1000 on Amazon used for cheap. Solid working router during my testing of it. Worked well when I have it online.
