    Routing between 2g and 5g subnets

    I'm seriously considering the next generation of this router. This one looks really smart and they included power settings unlike the Netgear R6300. The next genertion is supposed to include a USB 3 port which, I think, is worth waiting for. For me, CLEAR, www.clear.com with a clear spot...
