    Problem with USB on AC68U

    Hi All, I was wondering if anyone has ran into issues setting up a network printer via the USB port on the RT-AC68U? I have a HP LaserJet P1005 plugged into the USB 2.0 port of my AC68U. I tried both using the EZ printer utility and LPR settings (according to the ASUS instruction page on...

    Public petition to ASUS - please make a new version of AC68U

    Problem is a lot of people had issues with Netgear's support over the years (lack of firmware updates).

    RT-AC68U Slow USB 3.0 speeds

    For a business, I would agree with your thoughts. However, for my own personal NAS storage, I don't need a dedicated NAS. The issue I have with the AC56U, as much as I liked it, was that the range is not nearly as good as the N66 or the AC66 that I tried previously. However, with the AC68U, it...

    RT-AC68U Slow USB 3.0 speeds

    I'm hoping ASUS would address this issue with the AC68U after seeing the abysmal performance of the USB 3.0 even when compared to the sibling AC56U. Does anyone think a firmware update might address this? Or is this simply a design flaw where proper shielding was not implemented for the USB...

    AC1900 First Look: NETGEAR R7000 & ASUS RT-AC68U

    Does that mean if I'm intending to use the router as a NAS via USB 3.0, that I should just go with the R7000? What's the best way to reach ASUS for a proper response regarding the bad performance for the USB 3.0 throughput? I had the AC56U and I just returned it because in my townhouse, the...

    Rt-ac68u

    I was just using a R7000 as an example as to why to upgrade to an AC68U. :P I also returned my AC66 and ordered a AC68, since I was planning to setup an NAS. :)

    Rt-ac68u

    Even though this for a R7000 (safe to assume performance is more or less the same as the AC68U), but if you look at http://www.pcworld.com/article/2050761/netgear-nighthawk-review-this-802-11ac-router-sets-lan-speed-records.html it does show a major improvement in NAS type uses. That would be...

    Degrading 2.4GHz performance on RT-AC56U

    I've also been having similar issues with 2.4 GHz. It seems like the connection is very unstable (the admin router page would load very slow), even though it shows a solid 5 bars of connection. I've used Wifi Analyzer on my Nexus 4 to make sure there's no conflicting signals from a nearby...
