I'm edging towards the AC3200 just for future-proofing
OK, I went down this route (Linksys WRT3200ACM). testing with stock firmware it didn't improve anything, and in fact I found that my Amazon Echo in the kitchen (not all that far from the router) kept dropping out when it had never had an issue with my old TP-Link router. Digging deeper, forum posts weren't all that positive about the WRT3200ACM's reliability in general and I returned it.
One thing I have noticed but not got my head around is that lots of manufacturers have substantially different models with very similar names (Google for AC3200 and see how many models come up, try the same for other similar designations). But I've not been able to find anything that tells me what "AC3200" (or sometimes just the 3200 bit) actually means?
