@Tech9 If you are going to purchase a new router that is going to make a noticeable performance improvement worth bothering to pay for then the best value right now is the AX86U. If you want a basic router then keep your current router or pay $40 USD on Ebay for a slightly better used AC router. Save the rest of your money in the future for the AX86U or newer/better router. Any other decision in my opinion is a waste of time and money.
