Router with good range under 4k ?

Yes, the Netgear R6850 has good range, reliability, and performance. But it is a good candidate for sub-200mbps plans. If you are looking for something that supports more than 500mbps, then perhaps look elsewhere.does this have good range, i am looking for a router with good ranger under 4k.
As for OpenWrt, this router and its tech is now old. It works well with Netgear's own OS, but OpenWrt is increasing in size, and the 128MB RAM and 128MB Storage might not be enough for OpenWrt apps and packages.
If you want a "Fit and Forget" router, Netgear R6850 is a great choice. It doesn't seek attention or regular reboots.
It has only four 5GHz band though (36,40,44,48) which is a big no in today's time.Yes, the Netgear R6850 has good range, reliability, and performance. But it is a good candidate for sub-200mbps plans. If you are looking for something that supports more than 500mbps, then perhaps look elsewhere.

That's incorrect. Netgear R6850 has MANY 5GHz bands.It has only four 5GHz band though (36,40,44,48) which is a big no in today's time.
