    4G+ Coverage Info Help? What speeds can I expect (Map)

    I thought I would post the other 2 options. Option 2 - Telia. I seem to be in the middle of their Band 3 and 7. They offer a max speed of 300mbps for 30 euro per month. Would this be a better choice? Or given the above with DNA, could I still get better on the unlimited DNA plan? Option 3...

    4G+ Coverage Info Help? What speeds can I expect (Map)

    My carrier (DNA) has an unlimited, "as fast as possible" plan for 4G+ in Finland. Normally the max speed of any carrier is rated as (up to 300Mbits). With some tests on this particular (as fast as possible) plan on DNA network showing up to 540Mbits. Going off this map. What would be the max...

    A 160Mhz router to go with my Intel AC 9260?

    Alright thanks for letting me know.

    A 160Mhz router to go with my Intel AC 9260?

    This doesn't support Merlin-wrt or DDNS with Namecheap it seems. Also it doesn't seem to support 160Mhz, just 80+80Mhz: I was thinking if I am going to go for Netgear, which I am not even sure that I will. That I would go for this model...

    A 160Mhz router to go with my Intel AC 9260?

    Hi. I'm currently using an Asus RT-AC68U but it's giving me all kinds of troubles. It's ancient by now and I can barely get 10MB/s local network speeds over it and the Wifi is constantly dropping out so I'd say it's really on the way out as the performance has dropped dramatically in the last 6...

    Both my smartphones draining battery like crazy after last Merlin update.

    Hey mate. I've worked out that it really shouldn't be Merlin at all. The thing is, both the phones have been wiped back to stock so I have no other apps installed, and neither are rooted so I can't get access to low level debug results or anything else. All I can do is install an app that shows...

    Both my smartphones draining battery like crazy after last Merlin update.

    Hey guys I worked it out. It seems to be my PiHole. I don't know if the Merlin update has something to do with interfereing with it or not but as soon as I turned the PiHole off and just set the DNS back to auto through the router config panel the drain stopped immediately. Left it that way for...

    Something to replace my AC68U with DDNS, SSL and some other perks?

    Thanks for the reply, but is that really much of an upgrade?

    Something to replace my AC68U with DDNS, SSL and some other perks?

    Hi folks. My AC68U is pretty much ancient now. Long out of warranty and has been going really well until about a month ago when I started getting massive battery drain on my network. My router may not be broken (probably isn't most likely) but I've still been looking to upgrade for quite a...

    Both my smartphones draining battery like crazy after last Merlin update.

    Thank you very much for the reply. I've tried doing that, also tried setting up a static I.P. but neither resulted in any difference. The problem seems to persist also on the 2.4Ghz band but not quite as bad. I'll try Android Assistant. I was already using Greenify, but the thing is, neither of...

    Both my smartphones draining battery like crazy after last Merlin update.

    Now before I start, let me just say that I am not directly blaming the update for my battery drain, it may just be a co-incidence. I updated to 384.4_2 about a month ago, and ever since then I started getting incredibly bad battery drain when connected to my wifi network. I could tell it's when...

    RT-AC68U, really slow Wired speed on my Xbox One X (faster than Wi-Fi)

    Ermmhm.. I seem to have been able to fix it by changing the DNS from Google DNS to a DNS server in my own country. Seeing as Google DNS is based in the US, and because Microsoft uses CDN based off the DNS you use on your Xbox it could have been why I don't get more than 50mbps when using Google...

    [ISSUE][RT-AC86U][384.4_2] CPU temp too hot?

    Mine is 88C under a little bit of load (about 40mbps download traffic) which I consider pretty high. Room temp is only 22C. No logs saying that it's throttling or shutting one of them down though. I should probably mod some fans on it or something because it's 4 years old now but I don't know...

    RT-AC68U, really slow Wired speed on my Xbox One X (faster than Wi-Fi)

    Hey guys. I've tried everything here and I can't seem to work out why my Wired speeds on my Xbox One X are slower than my Wireless speeds. Router: RT-AC68U 384.4_2 Firmware (Factory reset after update) My ISP speed: 100mbps Down / 30mbps Up Xbox One X - NAT OPEN - No service problems Xbox One...
