Best Wireless Routers 2017 – Buyer’s Guide
I hope you’ll agree with me when I say:
Life is not possible today without a good Wireless Router… Or is it?
Well, there is only ONE problem. Finding that “Good” router isn’t an easy job.
That is why I have created a list of Best Wireless Routers 2017. After researching online and spending hours in testing these Wi-Fi routers, I have shortlisted the top 10 routers which you can buy right now.
Best Wireless Routers 2017
Surely, these routers are not for everyone as some of them carry a hefty price-tag.
With that said, one thing can be said for sure, these wireless routers are good enough to make it to our list of the top 10 best WiFi Routers 2017.
Why the Latest Netgear R8500 and ASUS AC5300 are not on my list?
Lots of people wondering that why I didn’t include the latest AC5300 models from Netgear and Asus in my Top 10 list? Well, the answer is simple.
These latest routers are extremely expensive.
To be honest they don’t deliver any better experience compared to the cheaper routers out the in the market.
Currently, there are no clients which can take advantage of the latest speed standard (AC5300).
Mobile Apps are buggy.
So, in simple words, you are paying for the latest speed standard AC5300 and there are no computer system or client which can handle it. Isn’t it a waste of money?
For now, these routers are useless.
However, we believe in the middle of 2017 (July), the clients which can utilize this latest tech will be available. So, I hope both of these routers will make it to the top of our Best Wireless Routers 2017 List.

Most of the computer enthusiasts or users know Asus because of their top of the line gaming hardware. However, for those who don’t know, Asus is also at the helm for creating several high ends, top of the line routers. The offer we are going to talk about today is known as the RT-AC88U, the router is priced under $300 and it happens to be one of the best wireless routers one can buy right now.
The wireless router offers a stylish sleek look, something that people will find familiar, especially if they have used an Asus product in the past. The router is aesthetically pleasing with its complete black construction with red accents along the antennas, it looks straight out of a gaming lineup by Asus.
The RT-AC88U is an AC3100 router which comes with a total of 8 Gigabit LAN ports, do keep in mind that these ports are capable of delivering high-speed internet without suffering from any performance issues, and not to forget that it is a dual-band router that can act as a NAS as well. With that said, Asus as paid a significant amount of attention to detail even when designing the web interface as it happens to be super intuitive and easy to use. The WiFi performance of the router on both 2.4 gigahertz and the 5 gigahertz bands stayed faster than ever without any performance decreases.
Installation, Configuration, and Performance
The installation process of RT-AC88U is a piece of cake, thanks to the amazing web interface. When you connect it to the PC and internet for the first time and power on the PC, the Asus Web Interface will automatically launch and give you two options to configure the router. Either you can continue with the wizard or you can configure it manually.
The Quick Internet Setup wizard, will check your internet connection and configure your router as a Dynamic IP, Static IP or PPPoE, depends on your connection type selection. After that, it allows you to set a name for each SSID, and then create a network encryption key for each band. After that, it’s all done.
When it comes to performance, the Asus RT-AC88U provides multi-client MU-MIMO data streaming, works extremely fast on both bands (2.4 Gigahertz and 5 Gigahertz) and File reading/writing and transfers were great.
The next up is another dual-band router, but this time, the offering is being done by none other than the famous Netgear. For those who don’t know, the company is famous for creating a plethora of top of the line wireless routers that have become increasingly famous overtime. Netgear is a company that has dedicated itself towards providing top of the line, unparalleled networking hardware including their brilliant wireless routers.
The product that we are bringing you today is called the Netgear Nighthawk R7000, and as the name suggests, the router looks nothing less of a stealth fighter jet. The Nighthawk R7000 is AC1900 with 1,300 Mbps speed in the 5 gigahertz band and a 600 Mbps speed on the 2.4 gigahertz band.
Final Words – Wrapping it up
Considering how the market of wireless routers is pretty saturated, finding the perfect wireless router is never an easy task. That’s when lists like these come into play. The list was carefully crafted, keeping in mind things like the needs of a customer and how much are they willing to spend on a wireless router.
We hope the list helps you pick the best wireless router according to your budget. Do keep in mind that there’s no such thing as a “perfect” component, that’s why each router is built to suit the need of different consumers. We have added routers that are for budget oriented consumers as well as the routers that are for networking elites. In case you think we missed on a good router, let us know.

Blake’s Lotaburger Review
Blake Lotaburger Restaurant was founded by Blake Chanslor, and it was first opened on July 9, 1952. He remained to own it until 2003 when he sold his interest to father-son team of Ronald C. and Brian Rule.
Up to now, Lotaburger Company owns and operates 76 stores. Lotaburger has helped to popularize using of green chilies as a condiment on hamburgers.
This made our company be recognized in 2006 as best green Chile cheeseburger restaurant world. New Mexico Tourism Department in 2009 listed it as one of the states destinations on green Chile cheeseburger trail.
Menu
The Blake’s signature menu item is in Lotarbuger that is commonly ordered with cheese, and green chile added. Other charities include: - Smaller itsaburger- Hot dogs- Corn dogs- bowls and Frito pies- Fries- Milkshakes- brownies
Sandwiches- Breaded chicken- Turkey breast- Halibut beef
Our other Lotaburger stores offer a gobble up the menu that includes sandwiches and several types of burritos. We use eggs in sandwiches and a customer, therefore, has freedom to choose between Blake’s special red or green Chile sauces.
On-site offerings
We cater on-site with offers from the common partake tariff, includes fruit platters, turbid eggs, romance bread, and pancakes. All meals are made on the spot, but gobble up-burritos can be pre-made upon one's request. Green Chile that is a defining ingredient can be ordered as an addition to any menu item. A special red and green insolence that is made from New Mexico green chiles can be added to the chow down burritos.
Appearance
Our stores feature a red and white color scheme. There are some stores that have an outdoor seating area with red and white striped umbrellas where you can sit and enjoy your meal with a natural breeze around you. A few have walk-up stands with outdoor tables only, but the majority have an inside seating area that is very comfortable. We have constructed newer stores, but these have been redesigned to have a drive-through. Blake’s traditional signage is “Blake’s Man” which is a 10-to-15 foot tall man with a blue pole for legs, a white and red striped jacket, and a blue hat and bowtie.
Why are we rated best?
Achieving capital B, ‘Best’ doesn’t come easy, but it does with heat. We have professional and qualified chefs that will get you any meal cooked and served within a split second.

Ah-Gah-Vay
Where to start? Well, this Southwest Grill is named after the Agave plant, and it truly is a quaint and authentic location to enjoy some ethnic Mexican food. Agave serves as a fusion restaurant as it presents itself as a Mexican restaurant that also has an American twist. Generally speaking fusion places get a bad reputation, but this place actually has some delicious food, and the decor helps give you that authentic feel. Couldn’t ask more from a small place like this.
The Atmosphere
It’s hard to have a great atmosphere in such a small location; it makes for harsh acoustics, and that is a detriment to the patrons. Some people might be okay with an thunderous restaurant, but this place is a little above and beyond in that regard. If you’re going to visit Agave for some good food, then you’ll be quite happy. If you’re looking for a great atmosphere and being able to have a good conversation with whomever you bring with you, forget it.
Unless you go at off-peak hours, you’re going to have trouble in this department. This isn’t to shame the waitstaff at Agave because they are very helpful and informative, it is how cramped the location is versus how many people they let into the restaurant at any given time. I believe it puts a damper on the kind of experience you can expect to have. If you like a loud, rough and tumble environment, though, knock yourself out you’ll have a blast.
The Food
The food truly is either a big hit or a big miss. I don’t know how else to describe it, but when Agave’s chefs get it right, the food is sublime. When you get that perfect dish, you’re able to ignore the poor atmosphere and enjoy yourself. Some of the menu staples include:
• Blackened Chicken
• Shrimp & Sausage Penne Pasta
• Chicken Milanesa With Goat Cheese
• Burritos
• Empanadas
• Chimichanga
One thing that must be stated though is that for the price you get great portions. I mean if you’re looking for value and you want some Mexican food then Agave is the place for you, especially if you want to sit down and hopefully enjoy yourself, I would recommend going at off-peak hours and staying away during dinner if you want a more quiet place to eat. If you are going to go during peak hours, I would highly recommend making reservations because the place is very small as previously stated.
The fan favorite meal item seems to be the blackened chicken; it seems they’re doing something right. It is very moist chicken that nearly melts in your mouth you will not be disappointed if you order this staple of the restaurant.
The Drinks
The Agave plant is the plant that is used to make Tequila. Pretty legit right? The manager here is fond of handing out complimentary shots of their great tequilas for special occasions, so if you’re looking to get hammered on the house on your birthday, just tell the manager it’s your birthday, and you’ll be sitting pretty. Agave has a great deal of specialty tequila you can choose as well as other staples of the liquor industry that you would expect from any licensed restaurant.
Conclusion and Recommendation
At the end of the day, I would recommend Agave. The place is small, and the atmosphere is sometimes a little loud because of the amount of people being crammed into that small location, but the people are great, and the manager and staff do a great job. I believe at the end of it all the staff of Agave are the difference in having a decent experience to having a great experience. They do little things that you wouldn’t expect; they see you out of the store almost as if you’re a guest at their home that they’re saying goodbye to as you’re leaving from a great meal.
There is just something about the effort that these people put into their jobs that are actually inspiring. The drink selection is phenomenal, so there can be no complaints in that department and as I previously stated the manager is quite fond of handing out free shots, which is a major bonus!
The prices are very reasonable; I believe that even though the restaurant is small, the owners know what they’re doing and set prices accordingly. I would recommend Agave to anybody who is looking for a great Mexicali / Southwest experience.
