I am struggling trying to determine good router throughput to target from a PepLink router versus the current Netgear Nighthawk X10 (consumer) router I am using now.
This is for home use with planned 3rd Party VPN Client for 4 PCs, NAS, and 6 to 10 Other Devices (TV, BlueRay, Roku, Printer, Scanner, Solar, etc…).
I see the information for the following PepLink devices (for example) and not sure how these compare to the Nighthawk (don’t want to decrease bandwidth):
BalanceOne is 600Mbps
BalanceTwo is 1000Mbps (1Gbps)
Balance 20x is 900Mbps
Surf SOHO MK3 Router is 300Mbps
Balance 30 Pro is 400Mbps

The Nighthawk X10 is a WiFi router not a cellular router

What ISP? All depends what speed you get for your connection which you havent told us.

3

Xfinity (Cable) ISP with download speeds up to 900 Mbps and upload speeds up to 20 Mbps

4

The Balance 20x would be a good fit then.

At one location we are running a B20X towards a 1Gbps fiber WAN. It achieves 900+Mbps in both directions.
