New Around Here
Long time visitor to this site but first time posting. I've probably gotten myself into a similar situation as many on here, information overload. Anyways, I'm in desperate need of a new wireless router for my home to take advantage of my gigabit internet (I hardwire what I can). Anyways, I've currently been using an Apple AirportExtreme (A1521) and while the performance has been okay, it just doesn't offer me the customization options as the newer stuff on the market.
I work from home (3 bedrooms, open floor plan about 2000 sq ft) for a major entertainment company testing video streaming from their app on a multitude of devices (Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV, mobile devices, game consoles, etc). Needless to say, I put a high demand on my network and could have upwards of 30 devices connected at once. On top of that, I have a 14-year-old daughter who is constantly streaming or gaming. I try to limit what I can at the router level, but I'm handcuffed by the AirPort Extreme. I'd like to keep my cost under $350 but I do have a little flexibility. I like what I read about of the R7800 but I'm concerned that its a fairly old device at this point. I'm definitely open to suggestions.
