    You likely made a good choice by switching to Netgear.. As long as it isn't any of the gaming XR series routers running DumaOS on them.. They have more then there fair share of issues as well.. Good luck with your purchase!

    I myself personally wouldn't.. But its all up to you! I would get something that has third party firmware options. The GT has nothing for that. You will be totally at the mercy of ASUS. Good luck! Zippy.

    I live in the US also and I don't see 70116. Im currently on the 45717. Is there a newer firmware out from the 45717? Thanks! Zippy.

    Netgear xr500 your experiences with this router.

    I figured Id give you my 2 cents on the XR500.. Ive had mine for 8 months.. But my experience has not been very good at all.. I cant speak for everyone that has one of course but I will give you a few of my thoughts.. Mine has been one of the most buggiest routers ive ever owned. And killhippie...

    Hey everyone! I have a strange issue and was wondering if anyone might know the reason for this.. Here it is! When I add my ISP DNS the pings are showing higher then what they should be on my network ping and don't know why this is.. My ISP DNS servers should be pinging around 3ms-8ms.. But when...

    I was thinking on hooking my GT backup and see if anything has changed.. But by the looks of things many are still having issues with this beast.. Here I thought this was just a bad dream!! lol.. Looks like 8 months wasn't enough! Zippy..

    Arthur Lien, Is it possible for me to return mine for another one directly from you guys? Thanks!

    I looked at your pictures.. From what I can tell it maybe the button wasn't put on the end of the switch itself or it broke off very clean.. But imo the switch itself looks to be intact. Its just missing the button itself that likely slides onto the little shaft of the switch. As far as the...

    Maybe they changed the power button.. But on mine it has one you press with your finger.. But I also have a older one. I hope that is the only thing you encounter with your router. Maybe it is floating around inside the case like suggested.. Maybe someone will chime in on here that has a newer...

    I would have to agree. I did get mine early on and it seems more had issues then. My conclusion is I got a defective one. But im pretty much stuck with it. I have far to much time invested into this router to continue the fight. It was time for me to move on.. I am glad to hear yours is working...

    arthurlien, that function doesn't work on my router either. That function is broken pretty much like the whole router is. Plus I have other issues where your router adds about 23ms latency to my whole network and it slowly creeps up until I do another reset. But this never gets fixed it repeats...

    [Release] FreshJR Adaptive QOS (Improvements / Custom Rules / and Inner workings)

    Hey Fresh, That is correct. I have the ASUS Rapture GT AC5300. I bought it early on which some say the very first releases had issues. But firmware after firmware has done more harm then good.. Half the time the new firmware sent out created more problems then fixing them.. There was a large...

    [Release] FreshJR Adaptive QOS (Improvements / Custom Rules / and Inner workings)

    Hey Fresh, I discovered switching from Adaptive QOS to Traditional QOS the slowing effect doesn't happen when playing H5. Which I found very interesting. Another thing Ive noticed from day one with this GT AC5300 is that this router has always added about 23ms to my whole network across the...

    [Release] FreshJR Adaptive QOS (Improvements / Custom Rules / and Inner workings)

    Currently my bufferbloat grade is a B and my Quality is A+. Using your script with my up and down load speeds set at what they would normally be with out any QOS turned on.. So basically its my max speeds.. Hope that makes sense..
