I'd definitely recommend the Asus RT-AC68U loaded with the latest Merlin firmware. Great range throughout the house. I use manual channel selection, and the InSSIDer tool on my laptop to find the best channels to use as auto channel selection by the router doesn't always get it right. Some channels seem to have a better range than others, depending on your environment.

Mine is placed at one end of the middle floor of my 3 storey town house. I get a good signal in all areas. Ideally I'd place it more centrally, but that's just not possible for me at the moment.

Just use a old WiFi router as an Access point in your living room .
I use some 4 x DG834's to cover the house and garden and another soon to be added.

I need to chime in here.

THE ac66 and ac68 asus routers (not the modem versions) do have a wan port.  So meaning if you collecting stats from the hg612 then you will have 3 not 2 ports left.

Also if you pair it with a billion 8800nl  which should work as well as the hg612 then you can collect stats over the wan cable (I posted guide on here) meaning you lose none of your LAN ports (I currently do this).
