Looking to balance out price with quality. We are moving into a split foyer with a lot size of 10,528 sqft, and would like to have the wifi reach well anywhere on our lot. I am looking at possibly the Arris SB6190 DOCSIS 3.0 for the modem, and the Ubiquiti Amplifi or Amplifi HD for the router. Granted, I know the SB6190 appears to have a built in router, which is why I'm looking to get some opinions. With the SB6190 offering up to 1.4 Gbps, I'm not sure what the difference between this and a DOCSIS 3.1 would be in terms of speed. I've been told by our cable company for speeds of 500Mbps or higher, we would need DOCSIS 3.1, and though I'm uncertain if we will even go with those speeds off the bat, I would like to at least futureproof my setup somewhat. As far as the Amplifi or Amplifi HD setups, I've heard nothing but good reviews of these, though would like to get more personalized opinions based off our house type and lot size. I would still be aiming to wire in directly for gaming, but would like to do our networking correctly and well established the first time.
