its not a whole lot. It does have a better processor, slightly faster wifi (AC2600), and the capability to run plex media server.
The whole AD part of it was basically pointless. It was a failed wireless spectrum that was made obsolete by Wifi 6 (AX).
There was very few devices made the could utilize AD.
If you're looking for a router that runs Plex Media Server, then its a solid choice.
Why are you looking for an upgrade? What need is your current router not meeting?
Maybe a descreption of whats going on can help with a better recommendation.
