Some "routers" also have the MODEM included. I'll assume you have the MODEM and just need the router.

I can't recommend any of the new "ac" models. Too many issues.

My recommendation for ROUTER:
http://www.amazon.com/RT-N66U-Dual-Band-Wireless-N900-Gigabit-Router/dp/B006QB1RPY/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1383275552&sr=1-1&keywords=ASUS+RT-N66U

homepage: http://www.asus.com/Networking/RTN66U/#overview

*This is an "N" router as I could not recommend any of the "ac" models. Be careful to get a router with great reviews like this one. Many have issues.

Wi-Fi adapter:

Performance...

Performance varies. This adapter is 450Mbps for 2.4/5GHz. Some are only 150Mbps or 300Mbps.
