Live in a single story 2400 sqft home and have been unable to reach my back bedroom with old Linksys and new Synology RT2600ac (loved the software). I've tried using TP-link extenders, but they're unable to handle any 1080p streaming.https://bit.ly/3mwgyjP

I was looking at the Asus RT-AC5300, but $300 for a router....that seems crazy high priced. I'll never use half the stuff in it...just need something that can handle the distance and has good/stable software (even better if I can throw custom firmware on it and jack up the range if needed). 

*Can anyone recommend a router that should be able to handle that distance and still deliver good performance?

You can use your Synology RT2600ac to build a mesh network and expand your wireless coverage:

 

You can see more details in this video.

 

Other options are to use for example Archer AX55 (combined with RE605X in OneMesh, if neccessary to expan coverage further).

or use PLC extender to your existing router if they are on the same electrical circuit.
