100% this. People are ok with them because it’s all they know. Once you use higher quality networking equipment it’s painful to go back.

Your range is much lower than it should be.
-
If multiple people use the Wi-Fi at the same time the speed is lower than it should be compared to taking your total speed and dividing by users.
-
You are missing access to some settings that you should have access to. On newer Fritzboxes you can’t even set port forwarding at all.
Excuse me but this a load of. Range is just fine, as is speed -unless you’re using a 7581 vDSL model, those were crash-prone and wifi broke often. I have and had several models and that was the only one ever causing trouble. And port forwarding is still there,at least on a 7990 with the latest firmware update.
