    Voxel [ORBI RBK50 (RBR50,RBS50)] Suggestions on configuration for maximum range (on Voxel)

    Hello all, I'm looking for suggestions on configurations to maximize range on my RBK50. I have the usual setup (1 RBR50 and 2 wired RBS50) with the voxel firware (V9.2.5.2.25SF-HW).

    RT-AC68U poor 5GHz range

    Hey guys, I've recently got an RT-AC68U and although I love all the features of it (QoS, VPN, Wake On LAN etc), I've been a bit disappointed in the 5GHz wireless performance, as my iPhone is regularly dropping wifi signal in places where my previous NETGEAR R6250 worked fine. The only place the...
