    Cheapest reliable wireless router

    I need a router for an Echo Show and one wired desktop. That's all that will be connected. No need for particularly long range, either. All I really care about is that it will be reliable. I am going to be hundreds of miles away and don't want to have to walk through power cycling or more...

    [Official Release] AiMesh Firmware v3.0.0.4.384.10007 for All Supported Products

    Which router that is not the DIR-655?

    I already have a DIR-655, and I am getting constant wireless drops. The log is peppered with "wireless restart" messages. I have the latest firmware, have tried older versions too, and have even exchanged the router, getting a different hardware version in the process, with no improvement. I...
