Looking for advice buying new router

Post by Hex Destroyer »

Hi, I'm looking for a router which can run gargoyle, but I can't choose one.

I was looking for the "tl-wr1043nd" but I saw there are problems with v2 (wan problems) and there might be some wifi bug that I don't know has been fixed.
I also looked into TL-WDR4300 and still saw people reporting problems.
I was set on WNDR3800 but I thought at this point to ask for advice.

I am looking for something with pretty good wifi power and where I can play my games without lag caused by my housemate saturating the bandwidth (that's what brought me here).

also I can't really find much information on how to flash "x" router, since documentation still refers to Backfire, so if someone can help me with it. It's still not clear to me if I can upload the firmware throught the factory web interface or if I have to go through openwrt.

sorry for poor english :P
