New Around Here
I'm considering buying an RT-AX86S since it is at sale for 140 Euro, but there is a new model, which i haven't found much information about - RT-AX59U for 130 Euro. It seems, that AX59U has better processor (4 core 2 Ghz vs 2 cores at 1.8 Ghz), also newer hardware i suppose? how much processing power and newer hardware is important for future proof?
My current TP-Link 10+ year old cheap router is on it's last legs, because with current 300 mbps down speed from ISP, there is a bottleneck (wifi only at 100 mbps) and it started to crash quite frequently.
I do need something future proof (for at least +5 years) with light use (2 laptops, 3 phones, TV, few home gadgets, maybe Merlin for Adblocking).
Which one would be a better buy? maybe there are some better alternatives out there, for similar price point?
