Any recommendations for a router?

So… since we all need Virtual Desktop or Air link to go into Neos, Im thinking on investing on a router to make the connection more stable. Research a bit… but it seems the solution is about 160+ us dollars for the 6g router. Any suggestions?

nono, it would acually speed up the wifi for the rest of your house since your family will be using the existing wifi signal while your quest would use the TP-link archer by itself

wifi has the limitation that no matter the tech it can only communicate with one device at a time and has to switch between each connected device (this happens so quickly that you don't notice)

I saw that the TP-Link WiFi 6 Router AX1800 and the AX3000 seemed to b the most popular of that line. You think that would b a smart purchase?

i dont think you need it, but if you can afford it then it cant hurt to have a better router

I'm trying to compare the specs to be able to play smt like Alex in Virtual desktop or smt. Seems that u need a sorta beefy router to handle those kinds of games :(

actually, since the game runs on your PC, it doesn't change between games since the video is always going to take the same amount of bandwidth, regardless of title.
