    Idea - Anyway to run the No-ip DUC on the router?

    Awesome the DDNS works just fine.. Didn't know it was there (had searched previously but couldn't find it). Question... How often does it update the ip to no-ip? The DUC client does it like every 5 minutes or something. I am guessing this is what the "Forced refresh interval (in days) is.. Is it...

    Idea - Anyway to run the No-ip DUC on the router?

    I use no-ip for dynamic dns http://www.noip.com/download?page=linux - anyway to integrate this into the router so the router updates the dynamic dns with the ip address instead of relying on a computer to do it?

    380.64 constant 5ghz WiFi problems?

    Updated my ac68u with 380.64 (latest merlinwrt) and my Samsung s6 keeps disconnecting and reconnecting to the 5 GHz ac stream. Is this a glitch in the firmware or is my router and or phone going bad? Edit: It may be roaming assistant.. Forgot I had enabled that and set it to -70 dBi... I was...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.60 Beta is now available

    Not sure if this has been reported.. On 5ghz everytime I unselect Band1 Channels and hit apply it just rechecks it and sticks me on band1 channels. Don't like reduced transmission power so don't want those channels.

    Remote desktop doesn't work with Asus RT-AC68U router

    Just setup my AC68 and having the same issue, except I can ping my desktop. Never had this problem on my AC66. Edit: Nevermind, some how Network discoverable got disabled. I turned it back on and everything is fine.

    AC Bridge Question

    Makes sense. I tried repeater first but it was horrible unstable (AC66R kept dropping the connection and/or rebooting... Couldn't tell which cause the log didn't show anything) and I have no need for a wireless repeater and cutting my bandwidth in half.

    AC Bridge Question

    I dont thing so... It is strange because it shows the connection to the AC66 as 866.7 TX and RX BUT one of the ethernet clients on the AC66R it is showing as 1053 TX and 866.8 RX.

    AC Bridge Question

    I have an ac66 not 56. The 66 should have 1300 just like the ac68

    AC Bridge Question

    I just setup my AC68 and put my AC66 in media bridge mode. Originally I tried repeater but was getting stability issues with the AC66 for some reason. The AC66 in media bridge seems to be pretty stable but why is my link speed Link rate: 877.5 Mbps when it should be 1300 or more?

    Want to confirm before I buy - This is apperently a AC68u rebranded

    My guess is if you don't really need anything that MerlinWRT offers than sure. I really need openvpn so wasn't worth the risk of buying something that in the future could be locked down so I couldn't flash MerlinWRT.

    Wifi signal vs Speed

    I edited one of my posts with a directional antenna that has helped me

    Wifi signal vs Speed

    Yes they should. If you haven't already done this (as a test) put your 5 ghz at 80 mhz (not 20/40/80). If you have it set on "auto" switch it to N/AC mixed (or vice versa) and test those 3 clients again.

    Wifi signal vs Speed

    Umm.. Which model ipad, iphone and android phone do you have? The Surface 3 has 802.11ac which could explain a lot.

    Wifi signal vs Speed

    You aren't going to like my answer but the ac66 sucks at any form of distance. I have an Alfa directional antenna pointer directly at a wndr3700 acting as a client bridge maybe 20 ft away and if I get 200/200 on the 5ghz I am lucky. Get yourself a ac68 or any of the others and turn the 66 into a...

    Have slickdeal notification for ac68u. Do you think a refurbished would be OK? Edit: Well I found one on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/252381916850 - 95 dollars after shipping and the ad says "brand new" so we will see when I get it. Thank you for all the help! Will be flashing merlin on it...

    Wifi signal vs Speed

    Which router do you have? My ac66r has a huge drop in throughput at distance and is a known issue with it. That is why I am getting an ac68u

    Want to confirm before I buy - This is apperently a AC68u rebranded

    I had my mind made up before I posted it (and yet didn't buy it), but believe it or not I am passing on the TM-1900. You guys said the exact same thing that I was telling myself (and why I didn't buy it yet) and I just wanted to make sure I understood everything before I made the final decision...

    I know they modified the firmware, but I doubt they modified the hardware. http://slickdeals.net/f/8680195-t-mobile-wifi-cellspot-ac-router-asus-rt-ac68u-99-for-non-t-mobile-customers-free-shipping?src=SiteSearchV2_SearchBarAlgo1 There is a detailed process of how to flash the merlinwrt...

    Want to confirm before I buy - This is apperently a AC68u rebranded

    Awesome. One quick question on your previous response. If the Tmobile 68u is identical to the AC68U except for firmware, and you flash Merlin on it from the start, what would be a reason it couldn't be flashed in the future? Wouldn't that make it a stock AC68U?

    Want to confirm before I buy - This is apperently a AC68u rebranded

    That is what I was waiting to hear. If you had your pick of any AC router right now (reasonably priced) would you select an AC68 or would you go with a different one? I want to move my AC66 into a client bridge downstairs (I figured an AC client bridge would be more stable than my current...
