Ishta2000 1 Posted April 26, 2017 Good Evening All, My home router Netgear N3700 has finally shat it's self and I am getting next to no wireless bandwith and Gigabyte ethernet is slow as a pug with a full belly! Looking at upgrading and need some suggestions please. Budget of around $200 and I would like it to have strong wifi connections through wood walls and up to 20 meters distance. As a bit of an idea what will be hooked up to it. Is an 8 port switch, which shares to my HDTV, PC, Receiver, NAS, DVD player and Printer via Ethernet and then wifi I have 1 laptop, 2 smart phones, 2 tablets and any guests that visit. Hope this helps and thanks for the assstance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Master_Scythe 531 Posted April 29, 2017 Is the router section PURELY for the 4 ethernet ports and to connect your ADSL? If so; you're WAY better off getting devices you KNOW are good for their job. First, for $39 http://www.msy.com.au/network-device/13139-tp-link-td-w8950n-150mbps-wireless-n-adsl2-modem-router.html Grab one of those, it's a Broadcom chipset, so it'll have the bes possible ADSL connection. Disable the wifi on it. Then get one of these for $179 Ubiquiti UniFi AP AC LR 802.11ac Access Point https://www.umart.com.au/umart1/pro/Products-details.phtml?id=10&id2=272&bid=2&sid=284932 You have NO IDEA what WiFi is, until you've used a UBIQUITI.
