I don't personally own that router, but I've suggested it to multiple friends and family members who've all had good experiences with it.
Personally, I use a Google OnHub. It is several years old at this point and only has one Gigabit Lan port. If you want more, you will need to buy a gigabit switch:

It's a good wireless router as well though. I did need to buy a $20 switch to get more LAN ports.
Typically for a standard home you can get a good router for 75-120$
Google has a pretty dope one right at 107
2.4 ghz band or 5ghz?
5ghz doesn't penetrate walls as well as 2.4 ghz.
How many other wireless SSID signals do you see in your apartment? Your wireless connection could be being stepped on a lot (5ghz is better for this, but, less range...)
>Could it be the walls?
Yes, brick or concrete block signals the most
>signal interference?
apartment: yes.
>Is a mesh network necessary?
Hmmmm. Maybe moving router?
