I may soon be upgrading to 2.5Gbps internet, however all the routers that support said speed seem to be expensive. Is there any that cost less than $100?

I am pretty happy with a Dynalink WRX36 Wifi 6 AX3600 router which has a 2.5 Gbps capable WAN port and 4 * 1 Gbps ports for LAN. I replaced the vendor firmware with OpenWRT which is working well nowadays, you just have to follow the install instructions closely. It can be had for $79.

I would prefer two 2.5Gb ports but that sounds like a good router at that price.
