Running Ubuntu 16.04, 8GB ram, AMD 6 core processor, 2TB WD hard disk.
Hello to all. I read a review of the Asus AC56U Router and it seemed to be awesome except for it's speeds so I would like to get the opinions for using one for a home router. I need a router for streaming HD Video/Movies to my TV and Internet activities. Right now I am just downloading to the computer and watching them on a 16" View Sonic monitor. I do this through YouTube free movie site, and it's awesome.
Currently using a D-Link DSL-2750B Rental router from Verizon through their DSL line. The DSL line is rated for up to 3Mb/s download and under 1Mb/s upload. I know these speeds are slow but the cost is $45.00 to $50.00 per month just for that, with my phone (cheapest plan they have) it comes to about $85.00 per month.
So, I want to get rid of the rental router and buy my own. there fore the question on the above Asus AC56U.
I previously was considering the New Asus RT 88 but I believe that would be way overkill for my current needs.
