We been using this router that came with our internet service "arris DG860" For almost 2 years and the range has never been that great to begin with and lately it seems to be getting worse and its time for a Upgrade.
I dont know much about these so I figure I would ask before just buying something,This is just for home use but we run a lot of things,kids face timing on ipads,TV devices streaming ,Phones,games etc. We have cable internet and get speeds like 24MBPS, I did a speed test on my tv device over wifi and was only getting like 2.5mbps a room over from my router. So im not sure if the router was bogged down because of other things,or range but I would like a new router that will really give me enough range to cover our house and keep the speeds up pretty decent. What would you recommend?
I did a quick search for a good router and see a Netgear Nighthawk was rated pretty high,also pretty pricey at $200.00 would this be something that I would need or would this be overkill for my internet and home usage? Thanks!
