What is this 71 mW limit you speak of?
While the R6400 will probably be fine, I have a soft spot for the R7000. The R7000 has really good third party firmware support should you ever decide to go that route.

If this helps the house is a 1956 home and the room where the printer and computer lives is closed in carport so your going through a outside wall to reach but the wndr3400v1 can reach with it's outpower set for 521mwatts out on the 2.4 ghz band and gives a 54mbit wireless feed to the printer yes it uses dd-wrt firmware and has four 6db external antennas in place the internal ones most rooms have cat 6 lan port in the room.

If Wi-Fi is already working with your WNDR3400V1, then that's a good sign. Any of the Nighthawk routers will probably work.

So the limit 71 wmatt should be enough and are the r6400 or r7000 the right chooses for the job?
