Core2Extreme
New Around Here
Hello everybody,
I've recently upgraded my internet at home to a 100Mbps VDSL2 line and I would like to make some changes to my network as it no longer covers my internet speed nor my new needs ( streaming blu-ray to the HTPC wirelessly ).
Some necessary details:
1) There's a download server running downloads/uploads & Torrents 24/7 *I would freeze operation only when watching a movie in the Home Theater room if deemed necessary*
2) For the time being and the foreseeable future ( 12-24 months ) I will not be able to go with wired ( ethernet ) networking.
When I renovate the house I will install networking cables all over the place, but for now EVERYTHING HAS GOT TO BE WIRELESS.
3) I would like to stream full blu-ray movies ( maximum 54Mbps bandwidth ) wirelessly from the server in the server room to the HTPC in the Home Theater room
4) All the PCs except the office 1 have the Asus PCE-AC68 802.11ac WiFi PCI-Express adapter
5) Obviously I would like the download PC to have all 100Mbps of download speed available whenever it's downloading, a speed limit imposed by the WiFi network is not acceptable.
My house is like this ( excuse my drawing skills, I suck at it ):
Which AP/Router do you think will cover all my needs/requirements above ?
I've been eyeballing the Asus RT-AC68U, but also thought about the Netgear R7000.
Thank you very much in advance!
