Hi Guys,
I'm really glad I found this forum because I've already read a lot of great info. I was hoping to get some suggestions though.
I'm in the market for a basic router with Link Aggregation as a feature. My main problem is that on Amazon or Newegg all the highest rated routers tend to have common problems (wifi radios dying, bad chipsets, etc.) or they seem solid but don't have an option for link aggregation. My ideal budget is around $150 max, but if it's worth it to spend a bit more I would. My main requirements are just having a 5ghz band (tri band would be a plus though, but I know those run pricier) and link aggregation. I'm not really looking to run anything custom like DD-WRT and I don't care about USB ports since I have more than one dedicated NAS. My house is about 1700sq ft so it isn't exactly huge and most standard antennas will cover it.
Honestly the Phicom K3C in the review section (I think it's listed at #3 overall?) was what I was considering after I read the review, but it doesn't look like it has link aggregation and the amazon reviews have a consistent trend of it dying after a short time of use.
