Router Suggestion Instead of F2000

    We recently got 150mb broadband from Eir at home but appear to be losing a fair bit of speed through when using the wireless connection to the F2000. I would appreciate any router suggestions that might solve the issue.

    I have a TP Link Archer C9 AC1900 with a Virgin Media broadband connection in my apartment - it's a while since I bought the C9 - is there anything that's significantly better than it in the price range?

    Why don't you just put the F2000 into bridge mode and let your perfectly fine Archer do the rest?

    The archer is in my apartment - the F2000 is at home...

    F2000s AC is pretty decent, I've hit 180 on one before. First thing I'd do is ensure its setup to use 80Mhz and AC only before replacing it.

    are you using the 5ghz SSID thats with the router? if not enable it and it will greatly increase ur wireless speed.
