RT-AX86U

I'm loving my Wifi6 Asus RT-AX86U. The signal is strong across the entire house (where I used to need multiple access points) and I can use all the bandwidth of my new 500/50 plan almost everywhere.

I bought the Asus RT-AX86U pro on JD. I installed Astrill vpn on it. Still has an applet. I’m not really tech savvy but can follow directions. It took me a couple of hours. It works well at steaming almost anything I throw at it.

Asus RT-AX86U Pro. There are better ones out now that will do a better job. I got this on a black Friday deal

When I got Greenlight four years ago you had to buy your own router. I bought a Asus RT-AX86U and nearly choked on the price, But it has been worth the money.

A lot of youfibre customers could do themselves a massive favour by simply ditching the supplied router, as they are barely adequate. Middling performance. I have two ASUS RT-AX86U Pro, for full house coverage, and they perform flawlessly.

Apart from ethernet cables, it is also important to use a proper router, such as Asus RT-AX86U (wifi-6) or Asus RT-BE86U (wifi-7).Not the cheap crap like the Vodafone Gigabollox, that can only do 5GHz.Or the out-dated Fritz!Box stuff from the likes of Digiweb and PureTelecom.

If you want to stay with ASUS, some good upgrade options to WiFi 6 include ASUS RT-AX86U Pro (if available in your region, otherwise just AX86U), or ASUS RT-AX58U (RT-AX3000) for a lower cost option. For WiFi 7: If you don't need the 6ghz band of WiFi 7 then ASUS RT-BE58U is a good entry level route
