Please give me the model name of your router. The first time I've heard that home routers have separate receiving and transmitting antennas. Just dont understand why this design was implementd. This breaks my concept of data broadcast through the air.
I have the Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem.
My ISP internet speed is 200 Mbps. So, I know that my internet experience would be limited to the hypothetical maximum of 200 Mbps in most cases. But even so, the WiFi in general is faster, like when my laptop communicates with my wireless printer, for example. However, the new beamforming technology in the AC router, IMO makes a noticeable difference. Now, I NEVER lose internet connection. It's very reliable. When I had my N router, I was losing connection very often.

I understand your desire to make life better. But I want to note that number of packets to communicate with the printer is calculated kilobytes. Its clear that you will not use, and 30 percent of router speed as possible. For you priority reliability.
As for the laptop I wouldnt pay extra for a built-in high-speed module. I believe that 100 megabits quite enough for practical purposes. Up to you and I wish you the correct choice.

I think I'm going to stick with the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 for $650. It has an FHD display at 15.6", 8 GB DDR4 2400 MHz RAM, Intel Core i5-7200U (7th Gen) processor, two USB 3.0 ports, Bluetooth 4.2, 802.11ac 1x1 and includes a number pad on the keyboard (I use Excel all the time, so this is nice), and a 1 TB 5400 rpm hard drive. So I think it's the best equilibrium of being satisfied for my purposes AND affordability. The other laptop I was considering was the Dell XPS 15 for $1,200. But it's only a 6th Gen Core i5 processor and the RAM is 2133 MHz. So the Inspiron has a better processor and faster RAM and a number pad. The only other advantage of the XPS is that it looks sexier and has better quality build materials. But I don't think it's worth paying $550 more. I mean, I'm planning to buy a new TV in a few months, too, so that $550 right there will cover my TV purchase!
i hate to have to create a separate thread for a similar topic, so i'm "high-jacking" this one.
i need a new laptop, or maybe a tablet with a capacity for an external keyboard, for work purposes. will be starting a per diem job and my current laptop is now 4 years old, won't let me access work stuff remotely from home anymore. i need a laptop that can handle the electronic medical documentation programs of both employers (while in the building and remotely from home) that i can handle both paperwork as fast as i can.
been using a Dell i bought brand new in 2012 and love it. i'm now thinking against tablets since they don't have much memory for microsoft programs that i need to use time to time for work. i also need to use keyboards since i have a harder time doing such on touch screens for documentation.
i'm not tech savvy at all, so all this tech talk here is just way too much for me to catch up right now lol, but would really appreciate some suggestions as to which laptop would best serve my needs.

You should find out what the system requirements for your medical work program youre using to work. For example:
Spoiler
Computers and Operating Systems
NowMD will work on just about any Windows computer but you’ll be happier with a computer with a current multi-core processor and at least 4 gigabytes of RAM.
Supported operating systems:
Windows XP is not supported. April 8, 2014 was the end of the Windows XP Extended Support period. After this date Windows XP is no longer HIPAA Compliant nor does it meet the PCI credit card data security standards.
Windows Vista Home Premium, Vista Business and Vista Ultimate
Windows 7 Home Premium, 7 Professional and 7 Ultimate, 32 or 64 Bit
Windows 8, 8 Pro and 8 Enterprise, 32 or 64 Bit
Windows 10 Home, Pro, Enterprise and Education editions, 32 or 64 Bit

which ones would you know would be quite nimble to security upgrades? protecting patient information is of utmost priority.
