Which router to buy for a small office?

Question

Computer networks

Good day to all.
I open a small office with an area of ​​70m ^ 2.
The office plans to connect 25 devices to the router.
5 wall cabinets between them about 1m thick.
My eyes fell on the TP-Link Archer C60, I just remember that TP-LINK has been behaving nasty for more than 10 connections.
What can you advise from the same price (2500-3500 rubles)?

Answer 1

Mikrotik

Answer 2

TP-Link behaves no better even with fewer connections - it just hangs out of the blue. But ... walls about 1 m thick - sorry, one meter thick wall? Damn mouse, what kind of building is this :) Not a single WiFi will break through a meter-thick wall - well, not one that you can sit next to without the risk of going home ... sterilized :D
Only five routers / access points connected by wire .

Answer 4

I would advise you to build a network not with WiFi, but with a twisted pair (wires), but if the question is "essentially WiFi", then "Mikrotiki" has already advised you (but keep in mind that they are quite specific in setting). I would probably add devices from ZyXel to the list, among their other advantages you can see (look) the load on the processor and memory of the device, I have never experienced problems with 10+ connections with them, the main problem is not caused by in devices, and the number of connections, when downloading a torrent, for example, as well as all sorts of background interference in the form of a number of devices, phones or any other "interference / noise generators".
PS If you do not have a negative attitude towards this brand, you can personally ask a question in ZyXel's support, they will advise you in some detail regarding the capabilities of this or that device, "from the source". Respond in a reasonable time and quite clearly.

Answer 5

We use Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite (3 ports 1Gb, ~7000 rubles) and EdgeRouter Pro (9 ports, ~24000 rubles). Both that and that perfectly hold 25-100 clients. Easy to set up, would recommend. The price pleasantly surprises - www.ubnt.su/ubiquiti/edgerouter.htm

Answer 6

And I would advise you to buy 2 points ubiquiti.net.ua/ubiquiti_unifi_ac_pro_ap and connect them through Windows software.
We use these things ourselves, 30+ devices are connected stably and there were no problems for a year.
Of the benefits:
* stability
* ease of setup and management
* beautiful statistics graphs
* passive PoE

Answer 7

I would advise MikriTik or, on a budget, Zyxel Keenetic III (2 thousand rubles)

Answer 8

MikroTik IN GENERAL LOOK AT THE PROCESSOR AND RAM OF THE ROUTER
