In my experience, most router problems boil down to dumb software, so the best experience I've had with routers are ones that have been flashed with OpenWrt
(or even LibreCMC!).

Here's a table of supported devices:

That's probably the case if you are in a single room mansion, but with a house walls and interference also play a role.  Its hard to beat line of sight to a ceiling mounted access point.

Other soft/hard " tweaks " greatly affect that as well. I always start by making a site " survey " (many Android apps for that) so that you can find the less crowded " channel " on the Wi-Fi frequency we're using.

I support the choice of " OpenWrt " and you find a suitable hardware for that afterwards.
