Hi folks, my brother (who some of you met at a quiz many years ago) has asked if it’s possible to get some knowledge on getting a new router.

I’ve asked for a few details on the current set-up/issues, and they are as below:

Using Onesteam via Open Reach

Currently on Asus DSL-N16 with N300 Complete Networking

Main thing I want is ability to run dual banding for 2.4GHz and 5GHz but any improvement in coverage etc would not go unappreciated.

*Updated to remove list of beers and add this bit:*

The only stipulation they have on their website is that it allows input of DSL credentials.

Really took a delicious turn at the end, there. I'd vote for the Oatmeal Stout.

Oh, haha, sorry, we were talking about what he’s brewing AND routers and I must have copied and pasted the wrong chunk of message.

Edited the post and added in the bit that I had missed earlier.

Is the DSL Creds the only stipulation? Draytek makes some very good routers but they're expensive.

I’ll find out, Grim…

Thank you.

He called them up and said:
