Stable wired router for 1Gbps Internet

[westylakey]

Looking for a stable router to hold my FTTP connection. I've currently got the edgerouter x but its dropped out once and is ultra complicated for me. Also tried the tp link R600VPN but this couldn't reach over 730Mbps. Now sending back a Linksys LRT224 because it was causing even more problems and even that wouldn't max out the speed. Which is mad considering the edgerouter x is the cheapest.

The x is good yes and I have found a lot of help online with setting things up, but I'd rather have something more gui orientated than cli. Plus it restarted once and its only been up a week. One negative is it loses the log everytime it restarts. But out of the 3 routers I've tried the x gets upto 1.1Gbps on fast.com where as the others struggle over 700 for some reason.

I had to use CLI in the beginning for something to do with ipsec I think and something else because I wasn't getting full speed. And I used CLI to setup upnp2. I've noticed I'm on old firmware so I'll update that when I finish work
