Having been out of the router game for a couple of years, what’s a good replacement/upgrade from the ac86u?

I’m in the UK and I bought it from a business seller from eBay. I doubt they’ll be willing to help 3 years after.

Response from ASUS :( Unfortunately, it seems that this may be a hardware fault and, in such cases, you should contact your re-seller. I understand this is inconvenient, however in this case we suggest you contact your retailer for advice on returns/replacement or any other options they can...

Left the router unplugged overnight after doing a firmware recovery last night but it still won’t boot up. Concerned how it might be bricked from just a simple reboot. Not heard back from ASUS but I’m pretty sure I won’t be offered to RMA. I’m surprised this only lasted 3 years. My previous...

Hello, My trusty RT-AC66U has been playing up this week after 4.5 years of mostly trouble free use. The router decided to do a factory reset earlier in the week randomly. I then restored to a backup I had from a few months ago. The next day the same thing happened but after restoring I updated...

bump help please

Hello all, I just purchased a AC66U and really do love the router as it is much better than my previous ISP provided router. I really like the Download Master as it is much more convenient than leaving my pc on all night to download big files but I am struggling to access it when I am not...
