QUOTE(jack2 @ Jan 18 2017, 03:11 PM) Based on this review, the performance is overall the same, even compared to higher end Asus router.RT-N18U seems like too old now. But if you prefer reliability over performance, I'd say RT-N18U still a good buy. |

Keeping as Spare) > Asus RT-AC68U (Worth my every penny. No ping Spike and very good coverage.) Hello,How much is the Asus RT-AC68U ??? Thanks |

For cheap and reliable just get TP Link
C5 works great. C7 works better. If u got more budget and want more features such as QOS etc, get an Asus. If stay in double or triple storey house, a single wireless router is not enough to cover whole house. Even my Asus cannot cover my whole house. Definitely need an AP. From my own experience.
