sorry, I don't click on links from the forums. if you give me a brand/model, I can look it up.
the R7500 might work fine. But oculus recommends an AX/AXE router for optimal throughput for using it wireless. yours is an AC but might still work. You're not out anything to try gettings yours on the 5ghz.
Netgear Nighthawk WiFi 6E Router (RAXE500)
Will that work?
the RAXE500 is a rock solid router. The only thing I don't appreciate about it is the fact that it can't combine the 2.4/5/6ghz into a single network. It separates out the 6ghz.
for slightly less you can get the RS300 and for slightly more the RS500.
Both would have pretty similar performance for your goal, would be triband, and would be the latest Wifi 7 spec.
While the RS300 has slightly lower wireless specs, its updated wifi allows mixed 5/6ghz at the same time.
- I am asking what router do you recommend? That i should get...? Cause I really want to use my steam Games I purchased.
I can't tell you what to buy. I can recommend seeing if you can get your R7500 to work.
If that doesn't work and you're set on a new router. pick one that meets the specs you want. I suggested a few of the newer Wifi 7 routers for around the same price as the RAXE500 that you mentioned.
