    Take a look at the reviews and base your purchase decision off that. If you buy it and it doesn't fit your expectations, return it.

    I have TP-Link equipment here at work. We test lots of products. Their wireless bridges work fine.
    The thing i was looking for was this;
    "Class-leading 680Mbps DOCSIS 3.0 cable download speeds, 16x faster than DOCSIS 2.0"
    So you have plenty of bandwidth, I say get it.
    I use a dual band Netgear with Comcast internet no problems. And I have 3 phones 4 pcs and a tablet connected. The pcs run 24/7 and I stream HD movies off my firestick. Same download speeds as you.
     
    Worst case is it does not work properly and you can exchange it. I hope this helps.

    You won't know this until you set it up - too many variables. There is some software firmware that is free and allows you to increase the power output of your router called DD-WRT. But I think you are looking at a modem/ router combination so I am not sure if it will work with the TP-Link you have linked.
