good afternoon, i just signed up to my own broadband, i stay at home with parents and to give you an example of some of the devices we use on the one internet connection which because of our area and the distance to the exchange maxes out at about 1.5MBPS which is very tough to handle 4 iphones, 4 ipads, laptops, pc's, sky tv, my consoles (ps3, ps4, xbox 360), right now its unbearable and i subscribed to my own broadband so im getting a new line fitted and the same internet installed which will probably be about 1.5MBPS again but i can deal with that as its only me using it
My question is i don't want to use the router that comes with the provider, i want a pretty good router that has available Ethernet ports and good wireless range, i had a look at the ASUS RT-N66U and i noticed there doesn't seem to be an adsl port which i assume would be required, this tells me that its not a modem and only a router (im not 100% clued up on networking), would there be a way for me to use this router without losing the very poor speed i will already have, the plan is to also have a good router for when they eventually install fibre optic lines and i can upgrade internet, sorry if this question is a bit noobish but thanks for looking!
