    Netgear xr500 your experiences with this router.

    Thank you and e38BimmerFN for replying. I do not game much anymore but I do have many devices and users in my house using wifi (including 7 wifi security cameras) which put a good load on my router. What I had enjoyed about Asus/Merlin firmware on my AC87U is it giving an ability to see real...

    Windows backup solution needed...

    I see. It was quite the opposite for me. I grew tired of the slowness and common crashes I had back when I was using Acronis 2012 and discovered Macrium as its alternative. The difference was night and day and I never went back. Perhaps Acronis has improved over these years...may need to try...

    RMerlin what are your thoughts on Macrium Reflect product? I found it to be much more reliable for backups to network shares and it is virtually bug free unlike Acronis.
