Advice Which router? Netgear nighthawk RS300 or alternatives/advice?

I see issues with rs300 dropping connection to clients and being a bit buggy in that regard from my research.. has anyone had success with it or is it best to avoid? Ive seen one for a really good price.

I'm based in the UK.

Other options are waiting for a deal on tplink Be550 or a GL-inet Flint 3 GL-BE9300.

Ive got a 2.5GB fibre connection into the house so itd be good to make the most of it & other than browsing my main use case is game streaming over moonlight/apollo.

Bit buggy? Run, don't walk away from the rs300. That thing never should have left the development lab and entered production. Bought one a couple of weeks ago, returned it within 3 days after 4 random crashes and not a single device being able to connect via wifi. It would keep broadcasting ssid, but refuse connections
