    Cool! Spec and feature wise the Netgear XR500 looks great, cosmetically and functionally it looks like it's just as much of n eye sore and desktop wart as the ASUS GT-AC5300 -- seriously ugly product package design, space wasty, and they're both gonna look like dust bunny scoops inside a year; I...

    Thank you again Grisu! I really like the form factor of this thing: Looks like it would be pretty nice as far as how much desk space it consumes -- but then I saw this: Some overheating issues here? :D Is this perhaps why the GT-AC5300 is such a monster hardware wise?

    Hey ZippySkippy -- sounds like we went in on the GT-AC5300 for the same reasons. I (mistakenly) assumed it being an ASUS router it would be popular, there'd be third party firmware, and the specifications and features were pretty impressive. So far it hasn't given me any problems, in fact it...

    Thank you again Grisu! I'm amazed with the hardware spec of the GT-AC5300 that there hasn't been more attention given to firmware mods... Just too expensive and not enough of them in the wild, or too flaky?

    DOH! Didn't have my reading glasses on, "RT" not "GT" -- well that makes things a lot simpler... Thanks You! Back to my previous question: anyone know why DDoS protection is disabled by default? Is it particularly CPU intensive under real DDoS conditions? Is the GT-AC5300's DDoS feature able to...

    That's interesting, ASUSWRT lists the GT-AC5300 here and twelve other "GT-routers"... Is this fake?

    Just got a GT-AC5300 and so far everything seems to work, skimming almost 100 pages of posts it seems there may be issues for some use cases and a lot of buried treasure as far as tweak etc.. Are there any recommend consolidated sources of information, tweaks, and is there any custom firmware...
