Stick to C6 or A6. Not much price difference. Or am I missing something?

 

[Siddharth070999]

whats the diffrence between three c60,c6,a6?

 

[Sushubh]

I am wrong maybe. C60 seems to support more speed. Wait for someone else to respond.

Get Linksys E5600 exceptionally good range on both bands. Infact this is furthest reaching 5ghz band router I have used. Regularly goes on sale for 3k

TP-Link is good interms of hardware but they have to bring more features in UI which are given by Linksys and Asus routers. The Heavy UI should be optimised a bit to give more features .
I mean custom ROM is a thing but Hardware accelaration goes for a toss

3699 is expensive for me.in 2500 it would have been better.

any issues with Linksys in range or signal strength.or speed drop issues?i m daam sure its range is more than 3bhk.

I second @Zexen. Linksys E5600 is a decent router for the price. If you're willing to spend a bit more you should consider D-Link DIR 1960. Both of them are based on the Mediatek MT7621A chipset, but DIR 1960 is AC1900 and has double the flash/ram. Something to consider if you want to flash OpenWrt. It also has a USB 3.0 for you to use it as a media server. It was around 4k a week back, though the prices have increased now.

The range and thoroughput depends on the particulars of the building a great deal. If you've multiple concrete walls separating the the router and the clients, WIFI experience would be bad. It would be ideal if you could place the device at a central location. Also make sure the frequency and the channel you use is not used by your neighbours.
