For the last few years I have been really annoyed with companies that advertise so called "Gaming routers". None of them are ever capable of running any games!
So @manawyrm and I built what I consider to be the first real gaming router.
It is based on a classic, the TP-Link TL-WDR4900 WLAN router with an AMD Radeon external GPU connected via PCIe and can run GTA.

To make connection of an eGPU to the router possible one of the WLAN chipsets has been disconected with a small mini PCIe breakout wired up in its place.
An off-the-shelf mini PCIe to PCIe eGPU adapter can then be plugged into the breakout to interface with a normal desktop GPU.
