Home Networking@selfhosted.forumEnglish · 1 year ago

i have Xfinity 1200 down and they say 35 up but i always get 40 when i do a speed test. my modem is a ARRIS S33 and i have 4 asus rt ax92u for wifi i have about 30 devices. kids tablets cell phones ps4 tvs ect. i play overwatch 2 a lot and i play hanzo so latency is very sensitive for me. what is a good router/firewall to fix this? sometimes someone in the house is downloading something and it just ruins my experience i heard of edgerouter i also use to have a xr1000 duma that helped a lil and there OS was very slow so got rid of it.

i have also seen this video No Lag, Secure, Kid-Friendly Home Network Guide - YouTube and i do have the Minisforum UM250 just want some thoughts/inputs also i am hardwired to my pc for gaming

edit: i also heard of good things about IQRouter Pro but its out of stock everywhere unless i can build one my self but i dont see a OS install on there site anywhere
