Ok so I got tired of paying Comcast 10 bucks a month so I went out and bought a modem and got a great deal so im happy however because Comcast was renting me one fo those all in one router/modems I am now without wireless. The good news is I only use wireless for one thing and thats my blu-ray player for Netflix and a little Youtube. So here is my question, what would the perfect wireless router be for me? My blu-ray player is an Oppo BDP-103 which DOES NOT support 5GHZ and it is about 35 feet from where the router would go with nothing but a hallway and a door blocking it. My Comcast plan is 105Mbps. Which Router would give me the most range? Or the most output? My old wireless was actually giving me 50Mbps and the blu-ray player was picking up abut 85% of that according to the player. Im also not trying to spend a fortune but if you guys could give me a few options going from the lowest to highest that would be great.
I did read an article on wirecutters that said the TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router was solid but after reading many reviews I hear it has crappy range, as in only like 20Mbps 15 feet away. Also many reports of early failure and dropped signal.
