    RT-AC3100 Slow Download/Fast Upload.....Merlin FW...

    Right. I guess I'd just have to play around with it and see.

    RT-AC3100 Slow Download/Fast Upload.....Merlin FW...

    Am I thinking about this wrong? I figured I'd have to upload the Merlin FW back and then see if something populated. No?

    RT-AC3100 Slow Download/Fast Upload.....Merlin FW...

    Gotcha. I can check that out. I'm hesitant to do so now that I'm running so stable. Just to pick at my curiosity. Let's say it wasn't that....what then?

    RT-AC3100 Slow Download/Fast Upload.....Merlin FW...

    Thanks for the reply. Each time I tested a different configuration of booting up which one first, I always left the modem off and unplugged from the wall and coax for at least 10 minutes. Regardless of the Merlin version I tried, no dice. I'd completely power down the modem, and completely reset...

    RT-AC3100 Slow Download/Fast Upload.....Merlin FW...

    Maybe this is a little more appropriate here since it seems I'm specifically having a weird time getting Merlin to be stable for me. Mods if this is out of line please let me know. I'm on Suddenlink 200/20. For some strange reason I can't get my AC3100 to behave. Plugged into the modem my...

    Alrighty, just loaded stock ASUS FW - 380_3941, which is the latest, and everything is good to go. I'm back in business. Any thoughts why that might be?

    RT-AC3100 Slow Download/Fast Upload.....Merlin FW...

    I'm on Suddenlink 200/20. For some strange reason I can't get my AC3100 to behave. Plugged into the modem my speeds are fine, but off of the router, whether I'm wired/wireless, I can't get past 1 or 2 down. I can get 20 up all day long using either method. I've tried rebooting, resetting, etc...

    A few questions using an N66u as an AP?

    Good point. I didn't reset each client. I'll try that now.

    A few questions using an N66u as an AP?

    I went ahead and updated to the latest Merlin Firmware. I read somewhere that Asus routers have some quirks when you update the firmware, and don't hard reset the router. I never did that after the first firmware upgrade. So, I hard reset it, and BOOM, 5GHZ speeds are back. 2.4GHZ was still...

    A few questions using an N66u as an AP?

    Between 75 and 100. Restarted the modem, then router. I can't pull over 5 on wireless on either band now on my phone. Strange. Max I can pull wirelessly on my laptop is 22, wired is 75ish to 100ish. This all seems very odd.

    A few questions using an N66u as an AP?

    Well, I've seem to run into a problem. First, what I was running originally. I'm on Suddenlink, 200 down 20 up. 200/20. I had a Motorola SB6121, hooked up to an Asus N66U. I was getting around 110 down on the 2.4GHZ band and 140 down on the 5GHZ band. I picked up an AC3100 from Best Buy, for...

    A few questions using an N66u as an AP?

    I have an old N66U, that I haven't bothered upgrading in a long time. I was thinking of purchasing a new ASUS router of the AC variety, and then using my N66U as an AP. If I purchased an AC66U or 88U, and then ran the N66U off of that as an AP...what would that look like as far as SSIDs go...
