I can second that.  My wife's laptop improved greatly when it was moved 
from 2.4 GHz Channel 11, the default channel.  If you have a smartphone 
or tablet, you can download a network monitor for it.  The 5G network 
won't penetrate as far through the average house.  Only experience can 
tell you if it is good enough.

The only test I know of for bottlenecks is the delay before a ping 
arrives back. If my computer can see the router, it assumes that 
everything is fine.  The router itself can check the path.

Doug.
