    Return Nighthawk and buy Asus AC68U

    My guess is however you are streaming this isn't over your LAN. Like you have local content and you are uploading it in real time to the internet and then downloading it with an upload speed of only 3mb/s you would for sure have some problems. Check to make sure your server and everything is...

    Ac68U Hardware Revisions

    Could that be in reference to the R and U models?

    Asus Firmware 3.0.0.4.374.542 Released

    Just had to restart my router after less than 24 hours on .542, I updated from .205 was there some sort of power button holding I was supposed to do to properly wipe it when upgrading?

    New AC68U Firmware is out on Asus site 3.0.0.4.374.339

    Gosh I hope this is a good one, I really want HFS+ and Time Machine support. It would be nice to see a FW released that doesn't turn out to be pulled for once.

    RT-AC68U Slow USB 3.0 speeds

    I wouldn't suggest installing firmware that has gotten pulled, there is a reason it isn't listed on their site anymore.

    Rt-ac68u

    I tried downloading it an hour ago but the link was dead. It seems to be gone again. Personally I am going to wait for a newer revision as I think there is clearly something wrong with .217 if they pulled it. Otherwise initial impressions of the router are great, mind you I came from probably...

    Best Buy in stock

    Well if it helps you can get it for $200 at Newegg if you order from mobile using code MBLMOBILE10 Sure beats the $214 I paid for mine and it appears they have them in stock.

    Rt-ac68u

    While I realize I shouldn't take these early Amazon reviews too seriously, the one issue I have seen twice is that this router like the ac66u needs to be rebooted a lot to keep the 5ghz working at top speed. I've never heard of this issue on the ac66u, but was wondering if there was any merit to...

    Best Buy in stock

    Dang, glad I hopped on it fast as my Amazon order is coming today.

    Rt-ac68u

    There is no SD card slot and there was no SD card slot on the ac66u or n66u, so I'm not sure what you are referring to. Maybe you are thinking of a different model? EDIT: I was mistaken about the n66u, didn't realize there was a hidden one on the inside. Now I understand why it was a "surprise".

    Newegg show rt-ac68u is shipping!

    Dang I had cancelled my order with Newegg and switched to Amazon as Newegg wouldn't let my apply shop runner to pre-orders, and Amazon had it for $6 cheaper a week ago plus I could use prime. It would be awesome if it shipped today or tomorrow and I get it on Saturday.

    Rt-ac68u

    Amazon has it up for pre-order for $213.95 so I cancelled my Newegg order (which I oddly couldn't apply my Shop Runner to). http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FB45SI4/?tag=snbforums-20 Also CNET has their review up, which I realize still doesn't have a great standardized testing methodology but...

    Rt-ac68u

    Did you get a 68U or is this on the 56U? I thought it was kind of odd that they got such terrible speeds on USB 3.0, it would be really nice to get 40MB/s Also I realize this isn't the best review out there, but figured I would share it since it is the first review I have seen for the 68U.

    Rt-ac68u

    They did test a regular N device and it saw a speed improvement.

    Rt-ac68u

    This review is looking pretty favorable with it setting all kinds of new speed records. http://www.trustedreviews.com/asus-rt-ac68u-802-11ac-router_Peripheral_review
