    Originally a PM to Merlin.. I decided to post publically.. Re: Upgrading from AC88U to AX88U

    [This was originally a PM that I didn't push the send button on to RMerlin, - as I thought.. Hey this is probably not important enough for him to respond privately. So here it is publicly and feel free to roast me with things that have been asked already. ] Hiya.. First, (@RMerlin) thank...

    [AC88U] - New Owner - Few questions

    Hey guys, I've browsed the forums a bit,.. great stuff. I just upgraded an Asus RT-N16 up to what my 'gut' told me to go with which was the AC88U -- Almost just grabbed the AC3100 (which from what I can tell is basically the same thing minus extra ports and some minors) -- But spent the bit...
