So , we Just Updated Home ISP From Airtel To ACT and Speeds Jumped from 40 to 300 Mbps , but wifi router supplied by ACT is good for ground floor . Need suggestion for good wifi router / AP for third floor and terrace. they will be connected via cat 6 cable from main act router. the only requirement is the gigabit ethernet port on router / switch.

Regards

You didn't mention the budget, so assuming you want to go for one of the best as it is at its lowest price of 23591 on Amazon presently, before any discounts.

Or if you want to spend more, though not with a whole lot of benefit.

Can also consider Asus RT-Ax3000 , it's about half the price of Rt-ax6000.
sells for 13-14k and a bit cheaper offline though at amazon it's always priced above 15k.

AX6000 is more future proof in terms of multi-gig support, should that be needed down the line. Also, if link aggregation is needed for a NAS or anything else, then only the AX6000 supports it. Lastly, the AX3000 has much shorter range, so if large coverage area is a necessity then again AX6000 is worth it.

But yeah, if you are looking to just build a AX network with the current speeds and feature set, then may be it is worth saving some money.

I agree, Ax6000 is a bit advanced and even has faster processor and more RAM but it's only worth if you require those features and large coverage area.
as for the price range of 12-15k ax 3000 is also a good option.

OpenWrt​

support seems to be better on C6 compared to A6

Archer c6 and a6 both updated to v3 versions. No OpenWRT support at the moment.

Any recommendation for sub INR 2.5K router not made in China?
