My old router is showing signs of aging lately. Not sure it would last another month.
So hunt is on for a replacement.

My requirements indeed low - WiFi - n150 should suffice, but n300 would be be better of course, range should not be a problem in the current home setup - hardly any walls comes between the intended usable areas.
Gigabit (if possible) - would help streaming HD contents (?)
No USB streaming, but would be great to have torrent download option.
(I have 5 mbps line, so mostly my download needs are covered without running the PC for overnight. But may need it in the future).

Devices that would connect to the router -
LAN - PC, TV, Xbox
WiFi - 1 Laptop, 2 mobiles, 1 tablet.

I don't intend to flash it any *wrt. :)

From what I have searched, I found Netgear JNR3210 N300 Wireless Gigabit Router to be the best fit for my requirement. And its available for Rs 2743 (-150 from fk app).
I just wanted a second opinion before going for it. Any alternative or pros/cons of the 3210?

TIA.
 
Firstly, am not a big fan of netgear products considering the security hole(s) which I actually witnessed on my laptop. Secondly, AFAIK, that model does not have torrent download support. Finally, would suggest something from the TP Link or ASUS stables.
