Help me pick a router!

[Phasio]

Hello everyone,

I've been looking at routers for the past 2-3 days, and I figured someone here might be able to give me some advise!

My needs:
1. My cable speeds are 100/100 .. So it's quite a fast connection, and I'll need a router that has allows me to have an ethernet connection that fully takes advantage of it.
2. A wireless connection. It does not have to able to take fully advantage of the connection, but I'd like for it to be quite reliable (hate rebooting routers) and with a somewhat decent range. I don't care if it's 2,4 ghz or 5
3. As cheap as possible!

Is gigabit recommendable?

So far I've looked at these two:
1. Wireless-N150 High Power Router & Access Point
2. TP-Link TL-WR1043ND


Thanks in advance

Kind regards,

The Dane!

Use the Router Charts to find routers with WAN to LAN and LAN to WAN speed > 100 Mbps.

Gigabit is helpful only if you have devices with Gigabit LAN ports.

Cheap and reliable don't necessarily go together.

I just ordered the Engenius ESR-9850, seemed like it's carrying the biggest bang for the buck
