I have 50mbps internet, a docsis 3.0 modem, and a wireless N 300mbps router. Are the 50mpbs and the 300mbps apples-to-apples? is my router sufficient? I don't know what all this AC 5GHz stuff is.

Not sure what you mean by this question. If you're asking whether the "mbps" means the same thing in both numbers, then the answer is technically yes. However, the 300mbps refers to max theoretical throughput between the router and your PC/other device and has no bearing on what's coming from your modem. Basically, if you're not having problems with connectivity and throughput on your current router, there's no reason to upgrade, especially if you stream exclusively from the internet and not local media files.
