Which router is best for me
I need to replace my old Netgear35. My ISP is Exede satellite 110.15 Kbps download. I have a modum and wireless router in my office, 25 ft. from the house. I have a laptop and ipad which work fine, but the TV is 48 ft. from the router. A gaming TV is even farther away. I have just purchased Fire TV & Acorn, but they are buffering while watching. I want the latest ac router, so which one will be adequate for my situation?
I recommend the R7000. It's still the best AC1900 class router and this class is still the most that makes sense. The R7000 also seems to receive updates more frequently than other models. Don't stare yourself at other models with bigger numbers. Most of the time you'll never utilize it as you not only need the hardware for it, but also (in case of MU-MIMO) you need 2 or more clients doing their job simultaneously
