Hi,
I have a 2 story house, 2300sqft. I've been using an Apple AE for years. It has been quite stable but, coverage upstairs in bedrooms isn't great. I recently upgraded to 150MBPS Comcast and got a new modem, SB6190.
I am getting ~170MPS in a wired connection which is great. Now, I want to replace my AE router with something that can provide close to 150MBPS throughout the house.
Priorities: coverage, stable, 150+MBPS Wifi speed.
My house isn't huge so I may not need a mesh solution. Still, I wand good coverage.
I am thinking perhaps a newer multiband router will suffice. Coverage is key.
I am not a gamer and the network load won't be heavy.
So, I was thinking of the following options:
1. Single Wifi router:
Netgear R8000 X6
Netgear R7000P
2. Mesh:
Orbi RBK50
Amplifi HD system
What do you think? Any other good recommendations?
Should I go with mesh?
Thx,
Rob
