Mine died recently. I got this one to replace it. So far I've been impressed.

I had the same Linksys, and it was a beast. When it died, I replaced with the n version. It has worked very well, allowing me to use more devices and has a stronger signal. At the same time, I upgraded my service to a faster line. So I can't say for sure that the router was the sole reason for my better performance.

This is what I have and it's one badass router.

I am currently using a Cisco 2504 WLC and a 2821 router. I got tired of dealing with garbage home routers. Bought the stuff used on eBay and Amazon.

I upgraded from a WRT54G to a TP-Link AC router. It doesn't have the same bells and whistles as the Linksys with 3rd party firmware but I don't have any complaints with the price. I have 3 phones, 3 tablets, 3 laptops and 2 Google Chrome's beating on it.

I used a Netgear Nighthawk until the 5g radio went out on me.
Bought a Asus AC2400. It has been a awesome router. Great UI. QoS works very well. Range is great. Zero downtime other than power outages. It's right at your spending limit but I would buy another in a heart beat. Only thing better would be to build a Pfsense box or go enterprise quality. |

I currently have a Linksys WRT54G and it used to work fine bu,t with all the demands from netflix, amazon prime, pandora, phones, tablets and other devices, it seems that I need to reset it fairly often. I'm willing to spend around $250 for something that can run everything smoothly. What do you recommend? Thanks! Asus RT-N66U. IF you coming from the Classic Linksys, reliability is probably important to you. The RT-N66U seems to be the current benchmark for that. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833320091 |

I like to keep it simple-stupid at home. Apple AirPort Extreme (or Time Capsule) for the primary AP and AirPort Expresses for network expansion. I recently gave my parents the AirPort Extreme I've had for nearly five years when I upgraded to a Time Capsule. It had been rock solid without so much of a reboot outside of the times Apple pushed firmware upgrades or power loss.

I went with a Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite and a Unifi AP combination. No issues. Mounted the AP in the ceiling on the second floor with a long cable run from the switch in the basement which also helps.
