Thank you sir. At last. An insightful and intelligent response. Yes I was wondering whether MIMO meant that a 1 stream client and a 2 stream client could communicate concurrently over 3 streams. This is precisely the question. I agree with you on this and also agree that it's not clear whether...

Thinking of buying an RT-AC66U. So it has 3 streams on each of the 2 radios. None of our client devices have 3 streams, just 1 or 2 at most. So recognising that bandwidth is shared on any given radio, can 2 stream clients connect to any two of the three streams offered on a band, or...

agreed. but you can turn this off baggyrinkle in the settings. I use Merlin's excellent image and have USB sharing at the root level. Not secure, but then my network cant be seen from the WAN ! ;) although this comes at a slight disadvantage in that I cannot access it either (outside the home...

THANK YOU Sir At last, perfect, concise, insightful and value-added post demonstrating how to use (and respond in) the forums.

too complicated for any one to explain. Jeeeez What IS the point of pointing me to Google. Why join a forum to post "Google is your friend". I mean, what is the point if you being a member if that's the best you can do I have my answer ,but not from here !

For channels.., read streams , if that makes it easier

So the simple answer to the simple question is....,!? t

So on my 802.11ac dual CHANNEL 876mbps router If I have 2 laptop clients with dual channel connecting to the router.... Does each one get two channels or just one If just one... Then what happens when if I introduce a third laptop ?? How does that connect, ?

I've cracked it! Been trying for days to get decent speed from my USB3 500GB NAS drive over my wireless network. Just using linux "time" command to time real world activities (not lab test and theoretics - just real world). Transfer of AVI movie (735120266 bytes): timings... NFS to...

I failed to get bridge mode working, my ISP demands PPPoA not PPPoE (as offered by the router). I had the same problem, after trying to configure TPlink8817 in bridge mode (ADSL2+) to the router. In the end I reverted back to TPlink8817 acting as a router/modem/firewall/dhcp server on...

Ah-ha ! this sounds interesting. xhci is indeed the module loaded however it may be operating in low power or low compatibility mode or something. I'm no expert of the USB stack but noted a few interesting annotations in syslog: extracts from xhci logging Jan 1 00:00:13 kernel: xhci_hcd...

I will have to check the linux USB and Networking stack on my MINT Petra 16 build. I might install Arch linux as this had limited bloatwsre and more targeted at better h/w My lappy is 8gb RAM , decent GEforce , quad core i7, 7200 WD DMA HDD... And so on. I don't get it. But then again why...

Sorry, YES, laptop 100/1000 Ext4 was slower than Ext2 slower than FAT32 what are the "many settings" you refer to. I dont see any for the USB interface other than Disabling interference on 2.4GHz band which doesnt change anything. Tomato not stable on AC56U. Merlin is doing a great job, I...

already bricked twice, well almost... firmware couldnt be uploaded after a crash and bootloop had to hard reset and piss around with ssh so not a complete brick now

Mate, what "environment" are you talking about - I'm refering to a wired connection using CAT6 albeit from a 10/100 (laptop) to 100/1000 (AC56U). No other clients connected, radios turned off, services shut down, verybasic stuff Merlin. Mate, there is something wrong with your USB stack -...
