    Disappointing 2.4ghz range on AC66U. What can I do to improve it?

    I'm currently on John's Merlin fork 374.43_2-17E2j9527 after reading that it's the best firmware if you're looking for range improvement. It hasn't seemed almost any better than the standard Merlin build, although I was able to change my AC66U's regulatory domain so that I'd be able to have...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    @ColinTaylor: Welp, turns out I'm an idiot. Sony released a beta firmware for the PS4 about 2 weeks ago, which I installed and encountered no real issues with when connected over wifi on my previous router. My AC66U arrived this past Friday and I couldn't understand why the speeds were so awful...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    Here are the speeds shown by my PS4 with my current settings: http://i.imgur.com/i8nDvkV.jpg http://i.imgur.com/g7eR6sd.jpg Ridiculously, I get better speeds when I set wireless mode to Legacy as seen here: http://i.imgur.com/TzBRokQ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Emg1Fld.jpg As I mentioned...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    I'm currently on John's beta release of Merlin, although I had tried the stable release before it and have the same issue. Here are the screenshots of my current settings (NVRAM was cleared before setting them): My 2.4ghz settings http://i.imgur.com/lFvWLGX.png 5ghz settings...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    The router's default setting is auto, so yes, I have tried it. I flashed back to Merlin (John's) and the issue remains. It's odd how only the PS4 is affected.

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    I tried settings at default and my PS4 seems "locked" at 3mbps download. I'm not sure if it matters but my wireless setup is having the AC66U set as an access point connected LAN-to-LAN to an Actiontec MI242WR router from FiOS. The Actiontec's wireless is disabled, is serving DHCP, and has UPNP...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    Ok, it seems that I've found the culprit. It seems as if there's some kind of issue with wireless N on my AC66U. I set the network mode on the router to B/G mixed and bam, problem solved. Download/upload rates and latency are MUCH better and the Tx/Rx displayed on the router's device list are...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    Alright, I'm on Tomato now and having the EXACT same problem! I made sure to wipe NVRAM before and after flashing the latest Shibby release. The Tx/Rx rates shown for my PS4 are absolutely insane compared to other devices connected to the router. Currently, it's showing a Tx/Rx of 6/4294967...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    Surprisingly, it improved the upload quite a bit, up to 15mbps. Download remains 3mbps though.

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    Here's what my PS3 and PS4 look like currently: PS3 00:24:8D:C4:3C:2F 192.168.1.18 -20 dBm 54 / 54 Mbps 0:01:59 AU PS4 5C:93:A2:41:AC:23 192.168.1.15 -53 dBm ?? / 5 Mbps 0:03:07 AU If I connect the Ps4 via ethernet over a wireless bridge (my...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    I did a factory reset along with clearing the NVRAM through telnet after flashing Merlin onto the router. For testing purposes, I tried downloading a few games (which wouldn't even get close to 1mb a second, no matter how many times I paused/resumed the download) and ran multiple speed tests...

    PS4 and Vita are terribly slow over wifi on RT-AC66U.

    Ordered the AC66U last week and it arrived today. Upon wiring it up to my PC, I immediately installed Merlin firmware onto it (380.57) and began connecting all my wireless devices. Everything was connecting fine and with speeds expected of my connection EXCEPT my PS4 and PS Vita. They're only...
