Hello,
I am looking to buy an AC-1750 router, and the TP-Link Archer C7 V2 and D-Link DIR-868l are the ones that fit in my budget, I will flash custom firmware such as gargoyle on archer c7 and tomato/dd-wrt on d-link 868l but it's gonna be tough for archer due TP- link lockdown but since I am outside U.S I don't think it's much of an issue anyways looking to buy whichever has the best range in both 2.4 and 5 ghz and custom firmware compatibility.
