    Get a second Asus for access point or use NetGear Range Extender?

    My expensive garbage Luxul keeps dropping connections.. If Magnolia won't fix it then I'm just going to go back to my old Asus RT-AC5300 which worked fine, didn't drop connections but the only problem was wireless range. So should I get a second RT-AC5300 to use in Access Point mode? Or should I...

    Problem with 5Ghz download speed with Asus RT-5300 and PCEAC68

    I moved into a new house and having issues getting the full download speed. This house is newer vs my old house and in the old house I was sitting much farther from the router but still getting Wifi 5gz 700-800 down/up on ATT Fiber. My setup in the new house is mind boggling to me because for...

    Speed problems with Asus 5300. Not dropping but slows down to nothing.

    If I directly plugin to the modem then I don't have this issue, or previously I tried a Linksys EA9500 and didn't have this issue. Before I tried the Linksys I had a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 with no issues.

    Speed problems with Asus 5300. Not dropping but slows down to nothing.

    I bought the Asus RT-AC5300 a couple weeks ago. It started doing this out of the box and I'm not sure if it's defective or not. The issue happens when I'm both wired and wireless. The connection will slow down to zero, and basically stop working BUT it doesn't exactly drop the connection. For...

    Linksys EA9500 AC5400 or Asus RT-AC5300?

    I tested the Asus 5300 and it seemed like it performed better. I get a better signal strength at the back of the house (router is at the front of the house) but down/up is about the same as the Linksys. Previously I had an issue with connections dropping when I tested an Asus 3100. I had the...

    Asus RT-AC5300 dropping connections on 5Ghz band?

    Trying to figure out why my new Asus 5300 router keeps dropping connections. Specifically it happens on one of the 5 Ghz bands. Currently all the firmware is set to default and I read that the Merlin firmware is still in Beta phase. Smart Connect is off. I read somewhere that if I go into the...

    Linksys EA9500 AC5400 or Asus RT-AC5300?

    I went over these charts many times and saw that the Linksys 9500 performs a little better on Downlink throughput on 5ghz and 2.4ghz. The difference in general between the Linksys and Asus is around 10-20 mbps. Running speed tests both wired and wireless AC I'm getting around 350 mbps down on...

    Linksys EA9500 AC5400 or Asus RT-AC5300?

    I am trying to decide between the Linksys and Asus. I'm using TWC with 300/20 and running a Netgear CM500 Modem. Typically I get 330-350 mbps down and around 25 up. I previously had a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 but it consistently started giving me 90 mbps when it used to give me 300 mbps. Decided...
