    Migrate settings from RT-AC66 to RT-AC68U(P) or other RT-AC series

    That would be useful. I most likely would use Merlin's firmware as I have had great success with it.

    Migrate settings from RT-AC66 to RT-AC68U(P) or other RT-AC series

    Hi, I have an RT-AC66u which works great, I have spent years getting all the settings correct for my network and applications. My dad needs an inexpensive (free) router/AP to significantly increase wireless coverage over the Xfinity provided device as well as provide a 5ghz option. I was...

    Looking for super stable router for Dad

    So, I have been letting him use my E4200V2 for a few weeks now and all his problems are resolved - he is happy. Now, do I leave him with my working router or get him something else that may work better, or not as well. I think I will just let him keep my E4200 for a while. His network...

    Am I missing something? I can't find a spot where I can delete a particular client devices DHCP lease - essentially knocking them off the network and forcing them to renew at the next connection. I've got the .266 firmware.

    Looking for super stable router for Dad

    Yes, his does use the Airgo pre-N chipset and it's range is quite good, if it weren't for that, I would just get him the AirPort Extreme (since most of his client devices are Apple), except I suspect it might not reach as far as his current one. I am fairly certain that the router has been...

    Looking for super stable router for Dad

    The signal strength is excellent at the AppleTV, it is just the piece that broke the camel's back. It highlighted the fact that my Dad's internet to wifi connection doesn't work for long under high load conditions. At my house I have 4 MOCA nodes that work great (truly excellent), but my dad...

    Looking for super stable router for Dad

    Hi - long time lurker, first time poster. My dad has an old Belkin F5D8230-4 Pre-N MIMO router which has been working fairly well for many years, combined with a Netgear WNDR2000 repeater. He has 3 iPads, an 3 iPhone 4S's 1 iPhone 5, and three laptops with Intel 6300 cards in them in use in...
