Hi There,

 

Just wondering what others suggest in this case? I have:

 

- Gigabit UFB
- Wired networking throughout the house
- Wireless networking via Airport Extreme and a couple of Airport Express (we have an old house and also have outdoor areas we wanted covered)

 

So essentially im looking for a good Gigabit UFB router. I dont need wifi, and dont want to pay thru the nose for it.

 

Thanks!

 

PS: Im currently using a fortigate 80C, but i really need it back to test HA config for something.

Thanks to this thread I got inspired to upgrade our router. Trademe>buynow>pickup>install all within about 4hours. Now we are sporting 5GHz ac Wi-Fi goodness using HG659b.
