Looking to buy a new modem and router package.
You’re considering a Netgear modem and an Asus router. I can suggest some reliable options for routers, and I’ll also explain how Netgear’s customer service works.
I use a Synology router and have never owned an Asus or Netgear model before. Asus is often criticized for poor customer service, though the products themselves can be reliable when functioning properly. Their support seems inconsistent, but I’m leaning toward recommending both Asus and Netgear routers in this situation.
They have security measures in place, but I'm not very experienced. Routers typically need port forwarding enabled.
It's tough to choose a router because most tech reviewers skip the user interface, making it difficult to assess the value.
