A good mid-range router that is ideal for adding Wi-Fi 6 to an existing modem router. The performance on 2.4 GHz could be a little better, on 5 GHz it fits.
The DIR-X5460 features a triple-core CPU with 1.5 GHz, providing significantly more processing power than any typical Wi-Fi 5 router. This allows it to handle large amounts of data transmission, enabling lag-free online gaming and 4K or HD streaming without buffering.
