I need help deciding between these routers (I will also take other suggestions but these are my top two so far)
Only 2 people live here so there is not a bunch of people sharing internet.
However, I game on consoles/PC, upload youtube videos, do college work, and everyday normal uses. I can use wired connections, but if I have to temporarily not be able to do so I need it to work well wireless.
The other person mostly occasionally watches Netflix or plays on their phone.
The main reason I am upgrading is because I recently purchases an xbox 360, and I can not stay connected to online games. I have tried to manually port forward and nothing works.
Our current router is very old anyway, so it is a good time for us to upgrade.
Although I want it to work well, and perform quickly, I am more concerned with it keeping me connected online., and actually able to connect to friends/games.
So anyway I do look at speed as a factor, but that is definitely not my biggest concern.
Any opinions are greatly appreciated.
