I find myself needing a router that has more "guts" in the wifi department than the Frtizbox that has been.supplied by 2degrees.

Will the Netgear RAX70 router work ok on 2degrees Broadband?

Yes, doesn't mean it has any more wifi guts though. You should not be using a stand-alone 3 in 1 router, switch, AP maybe. Data cable your house and install access points and do things properly - certainly a better investment of the money.

Honestly the Fritz!Box has pretty good WiFi.

 

What model do you have / what are you wanting to achieve? More range? As 2degrees also sell a WiFi Mesh unit for it that works very well.
