I should note that the Netgear series includes all these model numbers: WNDR37AV v2 WNDR3700 v2 and v4 (NOT v3!!!) WNDR3800 WNDR4300
Of which, the 4300 is probably the one to have, having 3x3 radios on both bands and 128 MB of flash (3700 v4 also has the large flash). Otherwise the differences are minor. The TP-Link Archer C7 seems quite nice, although I've only been playing with it less than 24 hours; my opernwrt build seems unable to send more than 100 Mbps over the ethernet, but the WiFi side is quite fast; I saw 270 Mbps of TCP sourced from iperf on the device, undoubtedly CPU limited.
