    Router upgrade

    This is all great info everyone, makes deciding tough. I see on Amazon the AX6000 and the AX86U Pro are very close is price with the AX86U Pro only slightly more. My current router has been rock solid except for the reboot issue with the 5ghz radio.

    Router upgrade

    I think the AX86U Pro may be a better choice for me. Newer hardware so my thoughts would be it would be supported longer. Thank you for the recommendations.

    Router upgrade

    Currently have rt-ac86u that’s having 5ghz radio issues. It takes around 10x rebooting the router before any Wi-Fi devices will connect to it.

    Router upgrade time perhaps

    Hey thanks for the replies everyone. So using the ac5300 as the main router is the wrong direction it sounds like? I do have Ethernet cable running upstairs. Any recommendations on a decent setup? Would running two ac5300 work? or ac86u as the main and two ac68u ?

    Router upgrade time perhaps

    [Preview] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.4 test builds

    Thought it was not necessary. Only if problems occurred? I will go ahead and do a factory reset a bit later once everyone else in the family is off the WiFi. Thank you
