currently on Unifi 100Mbps plan, plan to upgrade current ,modem/ router to replace old D-link DIR850L. Dont plan to get WIfi mesh, prefer one single device to power up the whole house .... Can anyone suggest any good router / modem below RM150  to cover 2 storey terrace ?

I think it would be quite hard, but can search for tp link or dlink i suppose. Doubt so can find a router which can support a 2 storey house with that budget, maybe around 200-250 can bro. IMO la.. Not so sure, but can search for those 2 brands. Currently using Asus AC-RT86U as main router, now also selling at RM400 online, can cover even up to outside my house gate for 5Ghz connection. 2.4Ghz i think further. Can reach up to my room, main router downstairs and still have 4 bar wifi strength. smile.gif

Honestly Im no router expert, i just assumed a medium range priced router would do it.. sweat.gif But my house has 2 routers. xD One for my room with my PCs. And one for general, parents and guests when they come. haha. So no one messes with my router lel xD sweat.gif but dont get me wrong, my AX56U can give me range outside my house up to 3/4 houses away.. lol. 5Ghz speed. sweat.gif
