    Hahaha, yeah, more hops has never meant better performance. I will probably wait until mesh has a little time to work out the kinks. Thanks

    Router Suggestions

    Thanks for the suggestion. I have never heard of them. I am currently using a couple power line adapters to get me by, I will have to check them out. I was just worried about interference or saturation at some point as we will hopefully be able to stream 4k through the Ethernet port on them, but...

    RT-AC88U, 4 ports not working

    After seeing this post and a few others I called to see if my ordered could be recalled through the postal system... No dice. I will have to wait until it gets here. I am RMA'ing without even trying it.... I purchased the Linksys EA9500 when it was released and I do not want to go through the...

    RT-AC88U, 4 ports not working

    Just a suggestion.... currently the RT-AC88U has a 2 year warranty. I do not know for certain if that is something that was applicable to your purchase, but you may have an option here... albeit dealing with an RMA process that nobody may enjoy, its a glimmer of hope.

    I will have to check those out. I haven't used Ubiquiti before. I've seen them tossed around forums frequently though. Are they geared towards the "prosumer" or is it hardware improvement (i.e. superior radios than that what's in current consumer grade routers)? I will have to poke around to see...

    Router Suggestions

    I've been seeing reviews of people still having issues with the RT-AC88U though so it makes me nervous. I mean it's cheaper than what I threw away on my EA9500, but still, it's not pocket change. I heard it was almost not functional from June to August for some due to firmware issues. Not sure...

    Thanks for the reply thiggins. Would there be any performance gains by the increased processing power and the increased memory capacity of the GT-AC5300 though. And where would I see that increase? I'm fine with dual-band if it's not substantial. I just didn't want to buy the top of the line...

    I understand attenuation. That's why I am getting 2-3 routers and running Ethernet drops. I deal with transmitting radio signals on a daily basis. Do you have any actual suggestions for routers?

    We have a very large house and it's constructed of concrete. Correct. I understand that.

    Router Suggestions

    Hi Everyone, So the time has come for me to upgrade from my RT-AC66U. Any suggestions? I will be implementing 2-3 routers. 1 as the main router and 2 as routers configured as AP's. I got burned by the Linksys EA9500 V1 and am not interested in going down that rabbit hole again. I've been...
