    Linksys WRT1900AC or Asus RT-AC87u?

    I favour Broadcom over Marvell, simply because Broadcom seems to have more customisability with third-party firmware. You can't go wrong with either the two of the routers. However, in this scenario I think the WRT1900AC is a better buy than the AC87U as the latter is still really new and has...

    Configure Netgear R7000 for Gigabit WAN

    Yeah, I think Netgear should've made this more explicit. The trial and error method used to find this out is tedious haha. Thanks for your reply! :)

    Configure Netgear R7000 for Gigabit WAN

    Heyya byonik and thanks for your reply! :) Yep, same NIC and cable is used all the time. I sit beside my router so I can just shift the cable quickly. Regarding the Firewall, I've disabled all forms of Access Control/Scheduling/Site Blocking as well as the SIP ALG and changed NAT to...

    Configure Netgear R7000 for Gigabit WAN

    Heyya! I picked up a R7000 not too long ago and am liking it so far; I was worried that I'd have to perform these "random reboots" as well as dropped connections. I am proud and happy to say I have none but one problem: I have a gigabit connection to the Internet and the main reason I felt...

    Wireless AC Router for Gigabit Internet

    Hiyya sfx Thanks for your suggestions. Currently on an AirPort Express which has a WAN-to-LAN throughput of only 50Mbps which I find very lacking. Considering I use mostly Apple this would make a lot of sense though I still think Apple is overpriced for their quality. Will look into Linksys...

    Wireless AC Router for Gigabit Internet

    Hey SMB! TOP EDIT I would like a Wireless Router that would give me near 1gbps IPv4 with NAT Been lurking for a bit here and now I have a question to ask. I've recently moved to University and have a LAN cable in my room which connects to the Internet at a whooping 1gbps (when via cable). I...
