I am in the market for a new router. I have been looking at this https://www.tp-link.com/za/home-networking/wifi-router/archer-c6/

I have about 10 devices connected to wifi at the same time. Smart Tv, 2 Mi Boxes, laptop, cell phones and Xbox One.

Would the above router make sense or is it overkill for the devices I have connected to it. The router I currently have only has 2.4ghz and from what I hear the Mi Box performs better on 5ghz.

TIA
Did you get the C6? I'm looking at upgrading my C20 as that is failing to keeping up with my growing household.

Its best to have a router + an AP just to take the load off in the case of a single router.

I have this setup, router on the east wing of the house and an AP on the west wing connected via LAN in the ceiling.

Whole house is covered.
