I may be returning the N65U for these reasons (posted in the N56U forum):
Though in the end I think I may be returning this and trying the N66U. Compared to the WNDR3700v1 (running Gargoyle), the actual internet connection is much more stable, but never tops out. Where as on the WNDR3700v1 it jumps around a bit, but always ended up topping out my bandwidth. Wireless is WAY faster on the N65U, but coverage in the same location as the WNDR3700v1 is much less for me, especially 5ghz.
So now I'm trying to decide if I just return the N65U and use my WNDR3700v1 until it actually dies. Or try the N66U. I ended up getting the N65U on sale for $120, N66U is around $170.
