I have the standard vodafone modem (huawei) which has the 5Ghz band. It's new enough but it seems to be struggling with the qty of wifi devices that are now connected to it. Wth the amount of smart devices/mobiles/amazon sticks/xbox/printer/light bulbs etc Im getting frequent times where I have to power off one device to free up a "slot".

What is the best option here? I don't want to spend a lot of money would I be best getting a router and just plugging this into the vodafone? Any recommendations, I don't want to spend a lot on it.
