    RT-AC3100 advice

    Start up questions

    Hello - My wife recently purchased a Smarthings starter kit. She wants to start off small and branch out a bit.

    Brand new AC88u 2.4Ghz not working

    I didn't ask for one. I have my old Linksys E4200 v1 running at the moment. That thing always worked. Anyways, I will try updating the new firmware once everyone is in bed. Everyone is using the wifi at the moment.

    Brand new AC88u 2.4Ghz not working

    RT-AC88U

    Aside from the red accents and the extra 4 lan ports, is there any reason to get the 88U over the 3100? I know Tims review said there wasn't any difference so I guess I'm asking if it's worth the extra $20. I've never had the need for more than 4 ports.

    Advice to replace Linksys e4200 v1 router

    So I've decided to get an Asus router. I would like some feedback on which one you would get and why. The RT-AC68P or the RT-AC3100. Currently there is $100 price difference. Thanks!
