    Is there such a thing as a best router? Do they not all do the same thing?

    I used to use a really old one from AOL days of past. I changed by provider a few years ago and they said I needed their router as it was the best etc etc.

    Honestly, I couldn't tell the difference from the peice of shit 90's AOL router and the 20 year+ newer router I ended up with.

        Maybe wait a month or two and see what the new 6e routers are like? Supposed to be pretty good, but so is everything new lol. Asus has one available now I think.

            I guess they don't provide you with one in the US?

            In the UK, you get the newest version when you sign up, or you can request the latest version for free if you have been with them for a few years. They even include wi-fi extenders for free, to place around your house in order to ensure complete coverage.

            I know that isn't of any use to you, but it just surprised me that if you are paying for internet, you need to pay again for the router to make it work.

                In the USA most internet providers will rent you equipment for $10-15 a month it’s cheaper in the long run to buy your own

                  Ahhh OK, I got yah. I just thought that they did not provide it all. Fair play. I certainly wouldn't want to rent one either.

                    A lot of ISPs provide them here, but not all and not on all plans. Plus the ones that they provide aren't the best.
                    Edit: I forgot renting one is an option, too, lol

                          I live in a HOA area - Homeowners Association - and we pay dues to live here. For $119/month I get free Internet, a huge gym, four outdoor pools, and one indoor pool.... It's awesome. They provide the modem, but the router is on us.

                                You really are an idiot and a dick. You have a protocol for new people and when they should respond?

                                  I don't need a router, it is built into the modem. I use cable, not sure if the people that need a router are using phone company products.

                                    What you have is a modem/router combo I have cable and use a modem and a router.

                                        Hate to break it to you (well, not really) but if you are paying $119 a month, you dont have "free internet, gym and pool"...

                                            I've been using a Netgear R7000 and slaved an Asus with it because I have 3 stories to cover. No issues whatsoever and I have 1 gig download and 50 gig upload.
                                            Waiting for the new specs and will probably go with Netgear again although Asus is a winner as well.

                                                  In the UK, you get the newest version when you sign up, or you can request the latest version for free if you have been with them for a few years. They even include wi-fi extenders for free, to place around your house in order to ensure complete coverage.

                                                  I know that isn't of any use to you, but it just surprised me that if you are paying for internet, you need to pay again for the router to make it work.
                                                  You bought the car but the company that sold it to you still expect you to pay for your own gas.

                                                  Most ISPs in the UK give out junk routers. The BT homehub range have always been very decent when I've tried it on my ISP. Generally though, I just buy Asus routers.
                                                  Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

                                                      I used to use a really old one from AOL days of past. I changed by provider a few years ago and they said I needed their router as it was the best etc etc.

                                                      Honestly, I couldn't tell the difference from the peice of shit 90's AOL router and the 20 year+ newer router I ended up with.
                                                      leeds council doesn´t offer advice on routers, but can help with dyslexia Adam


                                                      oh, and the speed difference between a really old router and a new router would be noticable, especially when switching from one GFY username to another! So please, restrict yourself from BS and shut up
