    Netgear xr500 your experiences with this router.

    I've had the XR500 since February and it has exceeded all my expectations. I've tested so many routers thru the years from Asus, Linksys, D-link and Netgear. Last router was the Linksys WRT32X, although it was good it lacked a good software. When Netgear announced the XR500 and the use of...

    Netgear R8000 AC Router - If you have one post here

    In regard to the 5 GHZ band steering, once you have selected the option to unify both 5GHZ bands, then the router decides which band the client should connect to. I suppose you could deselect the option and create 2 separate 5ghz SSID such as 5GHZ (slow) and 5ghz (fast). When one of your...

    OpenWRT for Linksys WRT1900AC

    Been over at the OpenWRT site and saw your post in regards for some "magical" thing to come in the next few weeks. Honestly, I am grateful you guys have been pouring your heart and soul over the FW build. If it weren't for you and the rest of the WRT community, we would be left with Linksys to...

    WRT1900AC vs. RT-AC68U vs. R7000

    I agree with all points, except, point #3. I've not used Asus 68R, but i have owned the R7000. Comparing the R7000 and the WRT1900AC is night and day difference in performance. The R7000 was great last year and the earlier FW where buggy, the latest one is very stable. The WRT1900AC out the...

    Linksys WRT1900AC First User Reports

    To enable port triggering for multiple XBOXES: 1) Configure port triggering rules, using xbox rules this link will give you a basic idea, it is being setup on the WRT-54G. 2) Best to use static IP addressing of xboxes, example: XBOX1 192.168.0.10 XBOX2 192.168.0.11 3) when configuring the Port...

    Linksys WRT1900AC First User Reports

    I vote for you to make the WRT1900AC as your primary router and reuse the Asus in the network. I had the R7000, great router with current FW, very happy with the Linksys thus far and just waiting for the OpenWRT to get the Marvell source code so that they can "hopefully", tweak the wireless...

    OpenWRT for Linksys WRT1900AC

    Well, this is some good and bad news. Felix has looked at the source code and it appears to be junk and needs some serious over haul. Can't believe Marvell would write junk and pass it along knowing that the open source community may finally have access to it. Our only hope is the guys out...

    Thiggins review and PC worlds review are both great. We really see how this router works in a sterile environment versus in real world application. At the end of the day, what "we" care about is how well does this router work in our network. If any of this helps influence our decision...
