Hi,
I'm new here and live in the netherlands, excuse me to start this topic and not read all the other topics first about the 2 different router models. But i can't find a good answer for my question. Also i have read different reviews about the two types.
I'm in doubt for an new router. Specially for gaming on my PS4 and Xbox One (i have them both). On this moment i own a Netgear R7000 Nighthawk but its not my thing, i have a weak signal and with gaming its lagging the most of time. I try different settings but don't work. My consoles saying that i have an open connection but its too bad. (think of port forwarding, dmz, upnp, nat open etc. but my connection lags). All my devices are hardwired to the router.
Before the Netgear Nighthawk i have owned an Asus N66u that was better then now. But i want a top class router for the next couple of years without switching of brands and types.
I have an 15 mbit down / 2,5 mbit up cable connection with a cisco modem (not a modem router). In my opinion is that enough for lag-free gaming..?
But which one is better the Asus AC87U or the Linksys WRT1900AC?
I know that the Linksys work with chipset of Marvell..
Can somebody tell me what's better Broadcom or Marvell.
Thanks in advance. I'll hope for a reaction!
