    Nighthawk X6 vs Apple AirPort Extreme

    Got about 450 Mbps wirelessly on my iMac with the Nighthawk. With the airport extreme, about 380 Mbps. If I hardwire the imac, around 900 Mbps

    Nighthawk X6 vs Apple AirPort Extreme

    Just had Xfinity come out and install their gigibit service. Tech told me I can't get Gigabit speeds with my new Apple AirPort Extreme router. Installed a netgear one, R8000 instead. Any truth to this? Would like to keep using my Apple router Maybe @sfx2000 could chime in Sent from my iPhone...

    Airport Extreme, one SSID question

    I have my 2.4 and 5.0ghz on one SSID, and the channels as Automatic. When I have this setup, my iMac, which is 14-18 feet from the router, connect to the 2.4ghz with signal (dBm) showing -36 The 5.0ghz is on channel 48/42, and signal -47.

    ASUS RT-AC68U keeps dropping 2.4GHz, clients can't reconnect

    I thought Beamforming was now standard (especially on apple products). You are say few wifi cards support it?

    is it ok to flash 3.0.0.4.380_1354 to newest version of merlin?

    Is the current FW you are running, working ok for you? If so, no need to flash. BETA is different from FINAL. BETA is testing, where once bugs are tested and ironed out, it becomes final, and usually more stable. If you want to flash to the latest, then you can not go back to an earlier FW, as...

    RT-AC88U

    Would one enable MU-MIMO on both 5.0 and 2.4? Or just 5.0?

    Is Mbps the same as Mb/s?

    speedtest.net gives me 80Mbps / 12Mbps for download/upload. On the ASUS QOS, they have Mb/s So I'm assuming I need to move decimals and not use the 80/12 number from speedtest?

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Beta is now available

    Reason you don't set download to unlimited ( 0 )? Also do you use a present like media streaming for setting? Or custom Also, any plans to make the speed selection in QOS correlate with speedtest.net? They report Mbps, and every time we have to convert it to MB/s on the router. Lazy yes, but...

    Asus RT-AC68U and horrible 802.11ac range?

    What type of things have been "Unfriendly?" Do you still recommend turning off beam forming for 5/2.4ghz when using apple products? Or has this issue been fixed.
