    Hello Everyone. I'm looking for a good home router that will support multiple Xbox consoles. The 2 Xbox Ones will be wired to an unmanaged switch that connects to the router. I have a Comcast cable modem at home set in bridged mode with a Netgear R6300 now. But we occasionally get booted while playing Destiny with our current router.

    The Xbox hardware compatibility site doesn't go into too much depth with multiple console support. There aren't many definitive recommendations out there. So I'm looking for anyone who has multiple Xbox One's (playing Destiny is a bonus) that has no problems getting Open NAT consistently on both and no disconnects in game.

    Any recommendations would be great. I'm looking for something less than $300. I have looked at the high end Netgear and Asus routers and am interested, but want to see some actual hard confirmations on multi console support before I decide.

    Thanks
