    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    I honestly gave it some thought, but from the reviews I read you have about a 1 in 5 chance of getting a defective unit. I'm done with consumer grade solutions for now. The ZF7372 is nothing short of incredible. The signal level clear across the other side of my house is now as good as it was...

    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    Yep, I finally gave up. Ordered a Ruckus Wireless Zoneflex 7372 and I'm going to probably buy an alix setup and build a pfsense box. I'm giving up on consumer level equipment. I scored a commercial dual band AP with adaptive antenna tech for not much more than I had spent originally....

    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    What would this accomplish? I tried just about every firmware there was except this one for the AC56U and could not make the 2.4ghz band work. I ended up returning the rt-n66u due to issues with the 5GHZ band being stable , and it finally quit working completely. I bought a netgear r6250...

    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    I did try every channel with no luck. I have decent distance between my neighbors and myself so I'm not swamped with 2.4ghz signals except those from wireless mice and keyboards. I traded the ac56u in this morning for the n66u dark knight. Flashed the latest merlin on it and it seems to work...

    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    Yea I tried DD-WRT just for kicks, and it was just as bad as the Asus firmware. That leads me to believe there is a problem with the Broadcom SoC that many of the AC routers are based on.

    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    Ok tried that, still getting about 1/4 what my rt-n16 gets at about 1-2meg/s between PC's. This was wired to wireless, the steam streaming client also reports about 1Mbit available bandwidth on 2.4ghz. I even tried streaming a 1080P MKV to my chromecast with no luck. This works fine on my...

    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    Thanks, I tried factory resetting and then doing that. Same deal, the 2.4ghz is extremely slow, and in some cases doesn't work unless you are sitting right next to the unit. I then updated to the latest firmware from your builds, reset and then tried everything you said again. No go. Walk...

    RT-AC56U 2.4GHZ Issues fixable?

    I recently purchased an RT-AC56U to upgrade my faithful RT-N16. However the 2.4GHZ band is completely useless. This makes my wife very angry with me as the chromecast is not usable. For the time being I switched back to my RT-N16. I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to fix this? I...
