Hi sifus, I'm looking for a Mikrotik router to replace my dead n56u which served me well for 3 years plus as main router. I very new to networking world but would love to try new thing smile.gif

Currently using maxis stock thomsan router, luckily didn't throw away. laugh.gif ISP Maxis Fiber Home 10Mbps.

My house is double-storey, router is placed on center upper floor, right beside 2 PCs with TM decoder, will connect to 2 PCs with LAN, no gaming, 1 DIY NAS as local file backup (mostly photo), PLEX server, and will setup FreeNas with OwnCloud near future, no torrenting, 4 mobile devices mainly swiping social networks and 1 TV kodi streaming.

Most of the time just 1 PC, 1 mobile device and 1 TV connected, peak hour at night all devices working hard, 2 devices streaming Full HD video, other just normally surfing net, NAS occasionally does the file transfer. All devices is connected mostly within 10m radius from router. FYI, total of 2.4 and 5Ghz Wifi surround my house is less than 8 and total of my neighbors not more than 10ppl so suspected neighbors' devices is around 15.

Is RB952Ui-5ac2nD able to meet my requirements? Since it's now the cheapest offering in Lelong, my budget is below RM400. Not sure whether Gigabit LAN is necessary coz rarely transfer big files or needing 2.4Ghz high power for high coverage. hmm.gif

Hope to get some advice from sifus here. Thanks! notworthy.gif
