Router for best PS4/PSVita remote play?

I've been getting along on an old Asus wireless router since forever. was mostly wired, and the rest just browsing.
now i want something fabulous to properly test, and possibly experience, the thing Sony is calling remote play.
any suggestions from the network savvy?
thanks!
ps. a telephone jack would be a solid bonus, if they even do that.. i'm still a vonage customer..!

..also, both in Direct Connect mode with the PS4 (bypassing the wireless router all together) and normally via the home wireless network.
the results have been, in nearly all cases, klunky at best.
disconnects, lag and patchy connection status even beside the router.
the only performance that has been OK, has been from direct ps4 connection, whilst sitting in front of the ps4 (in direct connect mode, the ps4 establishes it's own, small, wireless network)
While I understand that this may just be the state of the technology, but considering that my router supports neither 5Ghz nor the wireless n protocol (as far as I can tell) I have to assume that I can improve my wireless setup regardless of my remote play experience..
sure.. i'm HOPING these are related, and that I'll have better luck if i establish better wireless infrastructure... but either way, I could use a faster home wireless network.... so it's a bit of two birds.
thanks!
Any router with wireless N will do it for you. This doesn't work the same way as the Nvidia Shield, not really huge requirements on this.

the 2000 has 5ghz support, but i doubt it makes a huge diff tbh.

Pretty much all consumer wireless routers these days to wired and wireless on the same device.

I think the 5ghz is only good since it can run parallel to everything else without messing up anyone else on the network.
I gave up on it when I realized it had a range of about 15 feet from my router. Wouldn't even make it through a wall.
My router is a pile of crap from Monoprice that remote plays well enough as long as the host is wired directly into the router.
I use it for Kainy as well as vita remote play on the one PS3 game I have that supports it.
actually i'd save the $$ and skip AC right now altogether
and just get the RT-N66U
