Thanks a lot for the information guys, really helped me out!

Sorry if this has been asked before but I have only just seen that John was doing updates in the dev drive. Which version should I go with? 41ea was updated just a couple days ago but another folder (42d3) is there with much more changes according to the changelog with other versions not...

I already did send it back and it's the same story with the "new" one they sent me...

Anyone know of a solution or reason as to why this is happening?

Long story short, ever since i bought the asus ac66u (about one year ago and had it replaced a month or so ago) I've had the same issue with every firmware version including merlins. After a couple days of excellent reception and speed it would: 1) signal strength would drop at least 10db...

Does this include all the bug/security fixes of 374.5517 for the ac66u ?

Thanks a lot everyone, all this info is quite helpful, since it's a long weekend i think I'll play arounda bit and see what's best for my network. Happy Easter everyone

hey thanks a lot speedingcheetah, super informative and really helpful, i'll hopefully be testing my setup this weekend, we'll see what comes out from it all.

i'm trying to optimize my network and im not super knowledgeable about a few things and need them cleared up. running an ac66u with rmerlin 374.40 now... I want the best transfer speeds possible from all the computers and my htpc/nas i set up jumbo frames at 9000 mtu. the only things...

979 brings the issue back. there is noticeable lag in streaming videos and speed when transferring files.

just wanted to let you guys know 3.0.0.4.374_726 fixed my issue, no signal/power drops

ok about the speed drop i mentioned earlier, it did just go back down and i tested the speed, my laptop (N 300 mbps) is 2 megaBYTES per second slower and my desktop (pce-ac66) is ~25 megaBYTES per second slower. I rebooted it and now its back to regular speeds. i dont know why it's doing this...

yup, used inssider to check for best channel, as soon as it drops i'll check the transfer speed with both my laptop and desktop(ac adapter on the desktop)

question for all of you: did anyone notice the 5ghz band "speed" drop after a little while being on? i.e. my computer would say 702 mbps then a little while later it would drop to 216 or so. and my laptop would be at 300mbps then be at 150. i'd have to reboot it to get the speed back. also, if...

it didnt work but when i flashed .372 THEN flashed .374 it worked like it supposed to. i did a factory reset just to be sure but it works great, thanks, much appreciated.
