Good evening or morning where ever my fellow redditors are,

I've been looking at upgrading my provided ISP router to a Asus RT-AX89X AX6000, Due to it's 2.5 ports and 2 10 ports, but I have no clue if it is a solid pick or not, if not recommendations would be nice

My home network consists off a NAS and 3 other pcs wired, and then some philips hue and a few tvs

Throwing all your traffic through the router is to be avoided if you can. Especially if it's an ISP provided cheapo. Get yourself a nice switch with extra APs if needed. TP link Omada is great. Think unifi but sensibly priced.
