Could you help me decide?

I am looking for a hard wired no wi-fi router but I do not know what specs I need to look for, I will get the 50 meg Verizon fios to start and I will run cat 6a to the ont either port. I use bittorent so I will have a lot of simultaneous connections maybe 250 or more and watch vids. I am looking at these units but I do not know what is the most reliable and easiest to configure.

1.vEdgeRouter Lite3


-------------------------
2. RB850Gx2

The mikrotik RB850Gx2 is a five port Gigabit ethernet router. Comparing to the RB450G, the RB850Gx2 is much faster, with a dual core CPU, yet it still retains the same form factor, and will fit into the same enclosures.

For your uses either will be fine. General consensus I've seen is the Ubiquiti is easier to use for non IT consumers but they are both solid routers. Neither are wifi so you will need an AP as well.
