    RT-AC68U or RT-AC86U

    Howdy, thanks for your reply... What issues have people have with the AC86U? I've been googling around and havent really come across anything... To be honest the 68U is more suited for me as I don't use wifi a whole lot, mostly wired devices... My parents on the other hand have 4-5 users on...

    RT-AC68U or RT-AC86U

    Hi. I'm looking for a new router for my parents to replace their failling TP-Link. As I've been running at RT-AC68U for quite a few years now with little issue I was looking at getting them the same. The RT-AC68U is currently £119 but I've noticed the RT-AC86U is currently £136... Is the 86U...

    RT-AC68U and Android device battery drain...

    Howdy. I've got an RT-AC68U running the latest firmware (3.0.0.4.384_32738) and a Google Pixel 2 running Android 9.0 Pie. Since updating to Pie on the phone I've noticed, when connected to the Asus router via WiFi the battery drains 5-6% an hour when the phone is idle. Turning WiFi off and it's...
