Yes really. Not all Wifi 6 routers are the same. The router you listed for $34 is AX1500 which only allows 80mhz wide channels on the 5ghz band for a 1200mbps connection, and is comparable to the Puppis S1 Lite currently $40: https://www.amazon.com/PRISMXR-Compatible-Puppis-S1-Lite/dp/B0F9NQRRD3. The full sized Puppis S1 for $67 is AX3000, which allows 160mhz wide channels on 5ghz band for a 2400mbps connection. You can occasionally find some reburished or otherwise heavily discounted AX3000 routers for cheaper but generally they are $80+. There isn't any more configuration needed for the Puppis than a regular router, basically just enabling the right band and setting the wifi password. Newcomers would probably appreciate having a Desktop app to set it up rather than figuring out how to find the gateway address and use a browser to accesss the router's admin page. And they dont have to worry about any existing internet routing if this is a 2nd dedicated VR router, having to route existing internet through Ethernet through the VR router to the PC.
