Hello, I'm new here. I'm going to change my Internet ISP and speed soon (offering 300Mbits).
First of all, I have only few devices that can handle 802.11ac, I want to use that standard for them, but I need internet connection on my other devices at 802.11n. Are these routers capable of sharing 2 networks with different standards?
Secondly, my apartment is quite big (100 square meters), L-shaped and with current router (some terrible device - Thompson TWG870 from ISP) I have really bad to no connection at all, at the ends of the flat (within 10 meters from router). The old router is placed in a commode ((even when it was outside of it, signal was really bad), in the center of apartment , but new one will be placed somewhere on the wall. So getting to the point, i want the router to output a strong signal.
Last but not least, I want to store data, backups on additional 2TB hard drive, connected to the router. I've seen tests of both devices and I know that Archer is faster, but I don't know about it's functionality. I've seen AiCloud from ASUS and it looked quite useful.
Sooo, which of these routers (or maybe sth else) would you recommend for me and why? If you could share some useful informations about them, it would be cool too
Thanks in advance
