Hi guys, would like to ask for your opinion...
I am not familiar and certainly no expert in WiFi router. Assuming the price of ASUS BlueCave AC2600 is just $30 cheaper than D-Link DIR-895L AC5300:
Looking at the specification, D-Link DIR-895L AC5300 win ASUS BlueCave AC2600 in all fields but I wonder what is the real world performance of ASUS BlueCave AC2600 vs D-Link DIR-895L AC5300.
I also not sure about Intel chipset vs Broadcom chipset.
About the stock firmware, ASUS BlueCave AC2600 has limited/not supported by most of the custom firmware like DD-WRT whereas D-Link DIR-895L AC5300 is supported therefore I am not so worry about D-Link's stock firmware limitation.
Another router pricing that come close ($30 higher than D-Link's) is TP-Link Archer AC5400. It has the same specification of D-Link DIR-895L AC5300 but the stock firmware has Trend Micro protection same as ASUS'. But if I am going to flash custom fireware into TP-Link's, then there is no different of the provision of Trend Micro protection anyway.
Appreciate if you could give some recommendation on which to buy.
Thank you in advanced!
