Which router for Hub4 modem mode?

Ripp
Up to speed

Having all sorts of connection issues (https://community.virginmedia.com/t5/Networking-and-WiFi/Keep-having-to-restart-Hub-4-to-maintain-co...) so thinking one option to try is to buy an aftermarket router and use the Hub4 in modem mode. 

I'm no networking expert so not sure what would be best, I live in a medium sized 4 bedroom house, other than that what should I be looking for?

Not currently looking for a mesh setup as the signal just about gets to every room currently (well it did with the Hub3, the Hub4 barely stay connects to devices in the same room as it, literally, see link above).

Ay recommendations no more than say £100, preferably Amazon based.

TP-Link Deco M4 3-pack Mesh is less than £100 and well regarded on here.

Or this is a bargain unit.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-MU-MIMO-Wireless-Supports-Parental/dp/B0845XD62P/

Or...  not much more for Wifi6 & Mu-Mimo

Thank you. The AX18000 might be what I need then.
