Hello, welcome to the new year! I'm based in the UK and currently use EE as my ISP with their smart hub. We've encountered random device shutdowns, which might be due to heavy internet usage and multiple network equipment. I'm considering switching to a wireless router or modem combo, specifically an ASUS DSL-AC68U or TP-Link AC2800. Which one would you prefer? I have an Unraid server, Amazon and Roku gadgets, laptops, and plans to integrate smart home features. Here are some details about our connection: DSL uptime 5 days, 4 hours, 27 minutes, 17 seconds; data rates 20 Mbps / 80 Mbps max; noise margin 15.3/6.9; line attenuation 11.9/10.5; signal attenuation 11.8/10.5; data transfer 4.1 GB / 134.1 GB at 2.4 GHz; wireless SSIDs: 2.4 GHz (SSID) and 5 GHz (SSID), channels Smart and 48 respectively.
