Hi guys,

Im on 500mbps plan and seeking suggestions on the right router since the plans have been upgraded.

Im using ASUS RT-N56U and my max speed is at 160mbps at most on my Android and my pc/iphone in my room max 60 mbps. On top of that im using 2 powerlines as the the wifi is very weak.

Hence, I need to upgrade my router to a better one and keen on Asus or perhaps a mesh wifi. If i do purchase a better router, do i need to search for cat 6 copper cable separately as the cables provided with router is not cat 6?

Thanks all

How's the performance for the powerline?

How fast is the speed ? I know expensive routers are the way to go but I have many walls in my home so even the most expensive wireless router will not give me the speeds I desire at the rooms located far away from the router. I'm using the Tenda AC 15 router - was good before - now with the 500 Mbps speed I can't achieve the published speed unless I'm very close to the router when on 5Ghz.

I suggest mesh wifi instead of powerline.

If it doesn't involve running cables then I'm ok - but need to figure out how it works for some places with no power adapter where I want to locate the module for the mesh wifi...

I used this Router in our Office - wireless signal strength very capable - at home I'm using the Tenda AC-15 previous generation - very good also.

For the price you're paying for this router, I believe its very good.
