    RT-AC87 and RT-AC3200 Why?

    I've owned every router released since the N66U personally. I'm what you'd call a "return king." My biggest regret was briefly going Netgear (Nighthawk R7000) as their interface was rubbish. I used to work at a blue big box electronics retailer so I'd get cheap protection plans and swap those...

    Unreliable 5Ghz wifi with AC87R

    Go with the 3200. Zero issues since booting it up. Been running 3 weeks strong without a reboot (or reason to). That's two weeks longer than my 87r ever ran interrupt free. Honestly reminds me of the WRT54G days (that stable). 87r is a hardware issue with the new chip. Half this forum...

    Unreliable 5Ghz wifi with AC87R

    Had too many issues with the 5ghz band on the 87r Had many upnp issues with prior models. Upgraded to the 3200 and have had a wonderful reset free experience.

    Newegg Good deal on Asus ac3200 router

    It is the best too. None of that 5ghz radio nonsense from the 87r, so glad I upgraded!

    Sold 87R and grabbed AC3200

    Big difference in overall wireless stability. Lately the 87R had been getting better via firmware updates, but the 3200 runs very well over 5ghz (2.4 I've had minor issues with). UpNp is working every time for me now flawlessly (had issues with PS4 via 87R). Has anyone else made the jump too...

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    Have no lag issues whatsoever that the router introduces and I'm hardwired. Perhaps your connection or other components is/are at fault?

    Asus RT-AC3200 issues and impressions

    Would there be any difference in this router vs the AC87r over lan? Also is the processing faster or no?

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    I just watched "Edge of Tomorrow" via HDX on Vudu (PS4 App) with absolutely no problems whatsoever. That's with NAT accel enabled. I'm hardwired all the way through (Gateway connection) which if you're gaming you should be hardwired anyways. This was on the previous firmware 3.0.0.4.378_3754...

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    I've had no issues since I started fully booting the router first then boot the modem. This especially helps on the PS4 side of things.

    Asus RT-87R 5ghz is... "unstable" at best

    Update to the latest firmware that just released yesterda then clear NVram Also you shouldn't be doing any gaming over wireless whatsoever. Always hardwire for time sensitive apps like that. I too had issues with the 5 ghz band on my galaxy note 4 - they're now resolved. Again though, you...

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    I switched to Merlin's latest beta last night and I couldn't get the desired upnp result with NAT acceleration disabled. I'll post a video when I'm off work as to what a correct Playstation 4 connection test should look like if your connection is truly open (will explain later not as obvious as...

    Same here - very frustrating. This upnp issue needs resolved - as an avid gamer this is a no go for me.

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    What's funny is I posted a thread a while back about how people were cooling their routers. Many said "you don't need to do that, that'sounds preposterous." ...... eat crow I now will be purchasing a new router (probably r8000) as this is a hardware issue. No amount of firmware will fix...

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    When will the 5ghz band be usable? I'm in an area with heavy 2.4ghz interference. Would be nice to be able to use 5ghz on a nearly $300 piece of equipment. Ridiculous. Asus support has gone by the wayside recently. Maybe they should stop focusing on releasing another broken router in the...
