I favour Broadcom over Marvell, simply because Broadcom seems to have more customisability with third-party firmware.
You can't go wrong with either the two of the routers. However, in this scenario I think the WRT1900AC is a better buy than the AC87U as the latter is still really new and has...
Heyya byonik and thanks for your reply! :)

Considering I use mostly Apple this would make a lot of sense though I still think Apple is overpriced for their quality.
Will look into Linksys...
Hey SMB!
