When shopping for a suitable router, most people don't need to spend hundreds of dollars. For an average household, the ASUS RT-AC68U (opens in new tab) with AC1900 speed should be ideal.
It offers theoretical speeds up to 1,300Mbps on the 5GHz band and 600Mbps on the 2.4GHz band, which is enough performance for streaming and general connectivity. Beamforming helps with range and stability, and you should be able to cover a standard home with a reliable signal. A dual-core processor helps manage multiple users all vying for bandwidth, and you can connect wired devices with four Ethernet ports on the back. Two USB-A ports are also included for connecting external storage or printers.
