    Unhappy with Asus RT-N66U

    Did you think it was a fine wine? Did you think it would get better over time? The RT-N66U is getting dated. Anyway, there are more ASUS router out there.

    Start back at the basics. With your current setup, reset router to default settings, make minimal changes, upload latest firmware wired connection, also, re download latest firmware again to make sure its not screwed up.

    Tricky network planning across two buildings

    @Trip True. Everyone was way overthinking this situation. They need to step back and remember what the end result is. :) Fiber patch works, yes. If it was some 40 computers at location A, and 40 computers at B, and needed real network access, sure. Even a simple wireless bridge would work fine.

    Tricky network planning across two buildings

    Howdy, 23 meters = 75 feet drop some direct burial cat 6 line and be done. Do a ceiling mounted access point at each location. Fiber =? come on, its a small run. Way over excess for this.

    Blanket wifi on farm

    Howdy, Listen. You want it cheap and to work. I would say $200 and your done. You do not need fiber. You do not need business class hardware. Its only 60 acres. One AP with a omni directional antennae in the middle. Your done.

    Farm Wifi equipment choice

    Howdy, All equipment is still working good. Here is a overhead map of the area. The wifi coverage is actually larger than what I drew around. Red star is where the 12dbi onmi directional antennae is. The blue triangles are the access points with static ip'd routers each with its wifi on for...

    Blanket wifi on farm

    Howdy, OK, you are talking about my thread for the 500 acres farm area. Update: The 500 acre farm wifi setup is still working great. All units working. (knocks on wood) I would think with looking at your overhead image, you could get away with $200 invested. From your main internet source, and...

    Blanket wifi on farm

    Howdy, OK, I take it you are talking about 60 acres. How are your neighbors? very rural? each farm on 100 acres etc... You best bet is to use a POE access point with a pigtail to a Omni antennae.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 380.57 is now available

    Howdy, unplug your router for a minute. Turn off your computer. Turn on the router and let it sit for at least 5 minutes before you attempt to connect and configure it. Start your computer and clear your browser cache. Things working better? they probably are :)
