not an easy question to answer as it depends on your needs and taste, but I'd say the ASUS firmware (and its forks) is the best vendor firmwar of all. I personally use Tomato as it offers a few things the ASUS one doesn't offer yet in an easy way
Many thanks
My requirements are to make the most of a rural broadband speed (2-3) mbps, a large number of wired/wireless devices.
Large amount of streaming
Also, a large house so wireless range is important.
for large houses, I recommend APs if a single router can't cover it. For streaming, in order not to distrupt other services, you'd have to set up a good QoS system. That of Tomato, DD-WRT and ASUSWRT is pretty good. As for many devices, it shouldn't be a problem regardless of which firmware
I have an R8000 bought in SIngapore and the region is set to the USA , which I cannot change .
How can I download new firmware which is for Europe ( Portugal)
Thanks

Thanks for your help. Using Asus exert vortex. Just figuring out the best options for very slow br
oadband speeds
I recently purchased the Netgear R6300v2 AC1750.
My question is, do I need something else other than the DD-WRT Download File?
I've been reading information that seems confusing to me.
The impression that I get is that you need 2 separate files to flash this Router. If so, which ones and what are the steps.
My goal is really just to enjoy both (2.4/5 ghz) bands and VPN.
I don't want to mess this router up if I flash it with DD-WRT so I would appreciate some clarity on what I need and don't need.
Thanks in advance!
