    I have two RT-AC68Ps, one is getting flaky - what replacement?

    The Netgate stuff looks interesting, thanks. That 5100 is a bit too rich for me though! Maybe the SG-1100 at most. But really the only reason I'd switch from my RT-AC68P is if the Omada Controller can integrate with it - currently it only knows about the EAPs: It'd be nice to know how the ISP...

    I have two RT-AC68Ps, one is getting flaky - what replacement?

    So just to bring this to a close, I now have exactly what @Trip suggested - 2 x EAP225 + an OC200. I feel like the EAP225s don't quite have the range that my RT-AC68Ps did, but it is good enough. Plus they pack so many other great features in that I'm happy with this setup. I'm tempted to get a...

    I have two RT-AC68Ps, one is getting flaky - what replacement?

    Oh I see, hadn't realized the desktop software would have to be 'always on'. Good tip on the USB power source, indeed plenty of those lying around the house. I think I've figured out how to make it work in terms of physical connections. It's a little tricky since I only have one ethernet cable...

    Thanks again! So is the OC200 really required or just a convenience over their Centralized Software Controller desktop application? And does the OC200 require a PoE switch? The diagrams & instructions I'm finding all indicate one. Sleek install isn't really critical for me, so I don't mind using...

    Thanks! I'll have to do some research on those, a quick glance has my interest piqued.

    I have two RT-AC68Ps, one is getting flaky - what replacement?

    Thanks for the input! I'm tempted to try having just one router in my office since it is 2nd floor and more centrally located. But silly me didn't have the electrician run two ethernet cables up there, just one. So WiFi would have to be solid for everything in the downstairs TV Room.

    These were bought cheap as T-Mobile TM-AC1900 and then flashed to current ASUS FW (now 3.0.0.4.385_20490-g57b06ea). They are set up as Primary and Access Point. The Primary is in the 1st floor TV room at the far SE side of the house and serves several wired TV room devices as well as providing...
