I guess this could be considered bragging rights. But first, the rant.
I recently upgraded my internet service plan with Comcast. And as part of their xFi service, they insist you use their xFi modem/router. Don't get me wrong, it's not a terribly bad piece of hardware for the average user. It's small, decretive and fairly easy to use in general. But Comcast really screwed up the configuration software, making it absolutely impossible to share any content that gets trapped behind the firewall. You get no access to port forwarding settings. So after 2 weeks of my calling for help and getting absolutely no where, I went out and got my own cable modem. It's a
Assis SurfBoard T25 Cable modem. It has gigabit connectivity and telephone support. But I still needed a router that can handle that kind of speed. My old
Netgear N600 can only handle 10/100 networking. So after some extensive homework, I finally settled on the
Asus AX5700 wifi router. It has 10/100/1000 networking and is wifi 6+ compatible. I hope this should last me for a while. Anyway, the included image is the bragging part.
Edit: I noticed the link for the router I posted is for the quad core "U" version. But mine is the dual core "S" version. The link has been updated.
