Skip the gloomy tech news a bit and just enjoy some good ol' router reviews with tests and stuff.

I just stuck a few ubiquity access points all around the house. Works great, office-grade stuff.

Netgear Nighthawk is the one you want if your spending money anyway.

I had some very bad experience with their software over the years and I admit I haven't tested their new line yet. Has it gotten better?

Haven't used Netgear in years, I'm going to assume not, ASUS may not be everybody's favorite either, but Netgear has been getting worse for years.

I had one for two years and it stopped being a router. Was my third router in like 5 yrs. I switched to a small Ubiquiti setup and my speeds tripled as well as improving my wifi coverage. It’s been rock solid for 6+ years now. Plus I can easily swap out the access point when technology upgrades easily. Definitely recommend.
