Howdy y'all! I found this forum through a 1 star amazon review on a router I was going to purchase, the Asus ac-88u. I've been looking for a router I can use to game with, one that is VPN enabled and will make my gaming anonymous (so strangers can't snag my IP address). I've signed up with express VPN but realized I couldn't attach it to my ISP's modem/router so am looking to "daisy chain" a new VPN router to that modem and plug my gaming console via ethernet/LAN cable into the new VPN router.
If you haven't noticed by now, yes. I am a rookie and have no idea what I'm doing. But we all start somewhere!
If I hadn't had read awful reviews on the Linksys WRT 3200 or the Netgear Nighthawk R7000, I wouldn't be here. But every website says these routers are the best of the best!
So I thought I'd ask the gurus what routers they would recommend for this situation. I'd like a router that can reach at least (or close to) 100 Mbps with a LAN cable, as my current internet is roughly 150-250 Mbps.
ANY help is appreciated. Go easy on this rookie!
