Currently, I have an ethernet cable going along my ceiling all the way to the back of my desk. I used to have a Xiaomi Mi Router 3 placed on top of my desk, which supplies my whole room with wifi coverage. But now, I threw that router away because I couldn't get a stable connection to it, and it was difficult connecting to the router itself. I even tried my old adsl N300 router, and I could connect to the router no problem ( but no internet because it didnt use a rj45 connection to receive data.) But still way better than the experience I had with my Xiaomi router which was AC1200




Now, Im looking for a new router that will replace the Xiaomi router. It will only serve 1 or 2 devices at a time. My phone and a laptop. My budget is around $50 max because the Xiaomi router only cost me $20 . N300 is enough for 1 gaming laptop and 1 phone right?
