    RT-AC56U IPv6 No Connection on Ethernet

    Umm the modem should NEVER BE DELEGATING ANYTHING TO A ROUTER! Never never never never. It should just be that a DUMMY MODEM BRIDGE. any ALL isp modems (cable, dsl, fibre If u use your own vs the crappy modem, router, and or wifi device they give you..you tell them: wifi OFF, BRIDGE MODE ON...

    RT-AC56U IPv6 No Connection on Ethernet

    Incorrect. WRONG WRONG WRONG. I have a /64 from TWC on my RT-AC87U. the modem is in bridge mode so it doesn't even pick up an iov4 or 6.. It acts like an old fashioned frame relay modem. ALL the routers requests are sent DIRECTLY to your ISP. ANY asus router (from the 56u and up) with proper...

    RT-AC87U - Frustrations...

    The key to this router is making sure all of the hardware acceleration is turned on. Unfortunately for hardware acceleration you only had disabled or auto. If you are in auto mode you need to make sure that both CTF and accelerated flow are running. CTF will almost always work, but that really...

    RT-AC87U - Frustrations...

    Problem with all of these routers is not a software problem when you get WAN speeds exceeding 150 to 300mbps. Most routers have a single CPU and that is definitely not enough… And even the dual core CPUs found in the RT 68 U you is still not enough With a 350 Mb connection, the 68 unit is...

    RT-N66U - Less performance than expected on high speed fibre connection

    NO ammount of software can help you.. that router is PHYSICALLY not capable of routing data that fast using a NAT based connection.. .if you were PURE IP6, then it would take some load off of it.... if you can't buy a new one.. turn ANY FANCY features OFF.. NO FIREWALL NO DDOS PROTECTION...

    Bye Bye 40 MHz Mode in 2.4 GHz

    It's not just asus. Using inssider, I see netgear and Cisco routers violating this 40,the policy in my neighborhood I'm guessing companies do t care if they are certified or not for residential use

    Bye Bye 40 MHz Mode in 2.4 GHz

    Asus allows it All asus routers allow u to FORCE 40mhz in 2.4ghz, and they will do it no matter what problems it causes. I've seen netgear do the same. No matter how bad is, if I set my asus to 40, it will stay there. It only plays nice in 20/40 mode. These are the new asus AC routers that came...

    Why 802.11ac Will Kill The 5 GHz Wi-Fi Band

    Very true. But materials won't be as much a factor as stronger antennas. But most buy an antenna to hit their whole house This still won't propagate far enough No need fir large antenna in an apartment. 5Ghz should hit every room. It goes though horizontal wall just enough. My point is ...

    Why 802.11ac Will Kill The 5 GHz Wi-Fi Band

    I do NOT think AC will kill the 5GHz band LOL I think the author was a bit dramatic. Here's why. Take your iphone (or whatever), and walk 50ft away from your house.. guess what? NO SIGNAL. 5Ghz doesn't penetrate walls well Heck, I had to buy TWO routers because my Asus router upstairs...
