I still own a WRT-610N v1 and was wondering if I should upgrade to RT-AC56U.
The 610 still works fine and do the job but it's getting old...
So while I was looking aroung for the RT-AC56U I come across the RT-AC55U which looks like a recent AC1200. I was not able to find any review or information so I don't know when it was announced and since when it's being sold exactly but I know it's not for a long time.
Fact is it's a bit cheaper than the RT-AC56U and I take it as an improved AC1200 version, despite the numbering. Am I right? The RT-AC56U is many months old already so I must admit that if the RT-AC55U is a more mature AC1200 router than the RT-AC56U, this is interesting. Instead of going for a hardware revision, they decided to go for a new model number maybe?
Like Tim keeps saying, no need for a top-notch AC3200 highly priced router at this time. I think from my 610, the RT-AC55U could be a good enough step up if I have 100$ to spend.
