Nice box, but a bit overpriced IMO

Re: Need help picking a new router

Asus have a 1900ac as well which should be pretty good and familiar to you as I seem to recall you having an Asus router the now (allthough probably got you mixed up with someone else)

Think this one is also supported by Merlin and his alternative AsusWRT firmware.

I have an ASUS RT-N66U and don't regret it I easily get 125meg download on my 120meg connection. Around £100 but well worth the outlay
