Good morning,
I have always been satisfied of linksys except with my last acuisition which was a wrt3200ACM.
I'm very disappointed with that router and i would like tchange brand for once.
which brand would you advice me knowing that i use Nord VPN ?
Netgear or Asus for a budget of 150$ ?
thank you and merry christmas
yaba

I did look at the Linksys for a while since the WRT1900ACS came out, but went for a Netgear R7800 because of all the Marvell driver bugs.
Netgear make good routers and they are supported by Kong. I have an old Asus, but don't consider them any more as they are mainly Broadcoms.
