I have a streaming cable package plus all the standard subscription packages. They all work fine and stream in hd most of the time, but the quality sometimes degrades a bit.

What is your advertised speed, your speed without VPN on, and your speed with VPN on? And what VPN is it? What speeds do

The reason I ask is because it's more likely that the bottleneck is the VPN than your router

It certainly is that but the degree of difference is what I’m trying to minimize

I wouldn’t hope for a big improvement by switching the router, but I had an Asus AC-56 and it worked very well

Yeah, that’s why we’ve got it. We use Netflix and Hulu (and YouTube TV, but they still catch us that one sometimes)
