A little over two years ago I upgraded from a 66N to a RT-68u. Running Merlin. Around 20 devices, creeping up slowly with IOTs.
Since I am going to upgrade firmware and put some time fencing IOTs, it occurred to me that may be is time to upgrade the router. It appears that the RT-AC86u is the next solid, most popular choice for Merlin firmware. It has surprised me that, looking for a new one online, there are very few for sale. Is it going away? May be I should try to grab one to take me forward for the next 4-5 years.
What do you guys think?
