Linksys EA7500 Max-Stream AC1900 MU-MIMO Gigabit Router $137.33
Trendnet AC2600 StreamBoost MU-MIMO WiFi Router (TEW-827DRU) $99.99

As an aside, I bought George an ASUS like mine, the RT-AC68U, and they have had no difficulty at all. I'm inclined to think I have a bad unit and maybe the simplest is to buy another.
