Hi SmallNetBuilders!!!
Thanks for taking the time to read my question and give me a hand.
I live in Australia and am getting connected to our new "fast" broadband network called the NBN, which purportedly offers speeds up to 100 mbps (sad I know). Anyways, I'm taking this chance to upgrade to a newer wireless router that can handle multiple heavy simultaneous user access and that can be a bit more future proof.
I currently have the Nighthawk X6, but was looking at either upgrade to the Netgear Nighthawk X10 or Asus RT-AC5300.
I have read reviews (incl. the ones on SNB), but I still can't really decide between the two. For example, apparently the Asus router has loads of evidence of solid WiFi and Wired performance, whereas the Netgear being new doesn't have a lot of speedtest results, but does have a quad-core processor.
Basically, we have up to maybe 6 people in the house at any one time, with each doing either YouTube / Netflix / PS4 online gaming.
Which router do you guys think I should go for?
Thanks.
