Thx.... I'll wait for that day. lol. Thx for your guide. I used it this morning.

Odd. I have zero issues. I'm not going through all of that unnecessarily. I'll have this post reserved in the back of my head and if one day I have odd issues I'll go through the process. I do appreciate the advice though. Thank you!

Thx Colin - I've not had any issues so far using the backup file. I did find this suggested by others as well. I went through most of my easier devices and forgot all networks, then reconnected. I wonder what would indicate I should do the full reset? I suppose if I have stability or other...

Hi - I got the router connected and setup.... all seems well. Transition went smooth with the ability to transfer the settings over from my old NT66. I've turned on the adaptive QOS but a side from that haven't touched any settings. I was wondering if anyone here knows the optimal settings for...

Thx. After more careful review I realized the 56u was a 2 antenna and the 68u was 3 antenna. I ordered the 56u.

Thanks guys. I'm a simpleton when it come to my home networking. I have a few hardwired devices - home security - unRaid box, TVs, and the typical things - phones, laptops. I'll order up the least expensive of those two options to see how it works in comparison. Would you all suggest the 2...

Hi, no vpn or other special requirements that I can think of. My internet is 200/200 Mbps

Hi, I have been using the RT-N66U for several years along with one version or another of Merlin's firmware. Im looking for a replacement with a bit better range and faster wifi for streaming. This router works great for the most part. I would like to try a replacement/upgrade to see if I...

We have a really good POE connection (no reduction in speed) in our barn, which has a service panel off the main. Is it possible, and easy, to provide wi-fi service off the POE connection box that is plugged into the outlet? We'd like to install some power switches that are controlled via our...

Thanks. Me too. Thanks again to all who provided input. :)

I pulled up the screen on the router and it did in fact show a 100 connection for that port. So I pulled it off port 1 and put it on port 3. Got an instant 1000. Ran down stairs with the lap top, hooked it up, and initiated a file transfer from my server. 110 MB/s. :) I'm not sure what...

It's cat6 wire. I did bypass the switch and no go. Exact same speeds. I bough the wire pre-assembled from mono price. The only way I've tested speeds is to initiate a file transfer between server upstairs and computer down stairs. I thought interference too, I am run on the same run as some...

I have a netgear n-600 router, gigabit. It's in my office as is my cable modem and server, and main laptop. I can get 110 MB/s from server to laptop ssd when in the office, about 30 ft of cable length. From laptop to server I get 50 MB/s most likely due to the parity drive. No problem...

Thanks both. I can't believe how much faster this this Linksys EA2700 is. It's like night and day! Plugged in I"m getting 60-70 mbps off Comcast. :eek: That's 20-30 faster than my d-link dir 855. Guess I'll just keep this one.

So I limped my router back to operational mode, but it died for good tonight. I went out to the only store open and grabbed a Linksys N60 / EA 2700. However, with my new NAS box and the tons of movies and other files I need to transfer I want to get the router with 1) The BEST routing...
