I'd only use a HH for this if I could basically get it for free. They're fine for a basic ISP supplied router, but there are better options available. The Asus RT range is a good place to start.

Any model in particular you'd recommend or are they all of fairly equal standards?

I was looking at a TP Link Archer AC1900 C9 router, but the price was a bit steep.

Edit: The Asus RT AC68U seems pretty good but again quite expensive

Update: I've just received further information regarding my apartment and to connect to the internet I have to enter some of my details beforehand. Will this change anything in regards to using a router?

Details that you have to enter via a website every time you use the connection?

As far as I know (from what information they've provided) it seems like its a one off thing to get you set up.

If it's a one off you should be okay. Youve just got to try it and tackle any problems if and when they crop up.

That's what I'm hoping for. If not I'll have to dig around for a workaround on it
