I have two of these routers, both hardware version 4 manufactured in 2021. One has failed, and I can't seem to find any more v4. I just ordered one from a reputable supplier on Amazon that was supposed to be v4 but turned out to be v3 manufactured in 2023. This makes me wonder if Asus stopped manufacturing v4 for some reason (e.g., inability to get the right chips). Since the router is officially no longer available, is this all I can get?
So my questions are:
1) Does anyone still know a source for new v4 models? (The Asus store currently offers only "RT-AC68U" or "RT-AC68Uv3" from different warehouses.)
2) Do I really care anyhow? (I know v4 was supposed to offer higher performance, but how much higher?)
3) Will saved settings work on either version?
