PLUG,

I have been using a NetGear Nighthawk R7000 for several years now, and
becoming less and less satisfied with it as the firmware keeps getting
worse and worse. The device is currently in a hardly usable state. I am
about to revert it to some much older firmware to see if that even helps.

In the meantime, I am in the market for some new network hardware for my
house. I used to be a fan of NetGear stuff, and I still have a bunch of
their switches and they rock. But I am not looking to upgrade to any more
of their routers.

I have recently been intrigued by Ubiquiti products (
https://www.ubnt.com/products/). We use devices from Ubiquiti at work, and
they have been pretty solid. Not sure which product would be best for my
home use yet.

I am open to suggestions for routers and access points, either combined or
separate, that can handle a house full of computers and active users. There
is a lot of video streaming and gaming going on, including outgoing
streaming (Twitch) and media serving (Plex). The wireless access points are
not used for the most heavy traffic, as most of the devices that are media
heavy are wired.

Thanks,
Jonathan
