What is the actual rated AC speed of the 'new' 2019 router?

I'm trying to decide if it's worth moving from the provided router to a 3rd party router as I have a lot of smart devices & wifi CCTV cameras that require good wifi LAN speeds to work seamlessly. Currently I'm seeing some lagging with stuff & I think a higher rated AC speed router would help fix that, but I can't find anywhere what the rated speed of the Vodafone router is.

 

Does anyone know?

 

Also, I'm on SuperSpeed 2, so will need a Modem Router if I am to move to a 3rd party one. Does anyone have any recommendations about which router to switch too?

The Technicolor DGA4231, which I believe the THG3000 is based on is classed as AC3000. Something else about Vodafone that makes sense.

You don't have to dig too deep as much of the info is in these forums.

I never knew that. (the bit about the AC rating, not that they have exactly the same motherboard, I've got both here)

I always assumed it was AC1200. Not that makes one iota of difference to how I use it.

 

@CrimsonLiar, I failed to check my Intel Killer AX1650w 160MHz network adapter is 2x2 spatial streams.
