    Verizon G3100 vs my trusty AC68U?

    You'll have to test it side by side but I would not waste my time. The downside, to Verizon router, is that its locked, you cant do anything with it like you can with AC68U router with custom firmware. I highly recommend, you send the Verizon router back and run a LAN cable directly from FiOS...

    QoS Type - Bandwidth Limiter Target - select target from drop down menu. Fill out numbers to the right. - ADD Apply. Its kind of self explanatory.

    Has anyone else seen a performance difference in Upper/Lower 5GHz bands?

    I did, and there is nothing in your post that has any relevance to this topic at hand for 5Ghz band on AC68U router. Your post is also 2 years old. Over the course of 2 years, the issues you have brought up, could have been fixed in newer firmwares in AC68U router. Issues that you did not...

    Router recomendations

    It has to be a PoE switch and there are many options now days. If you only need an 8 port switch today, double it. Get a 16 port switch. Having that said. You don't have to get a 16 port switch. You can use a 4 port switch as your main PoE switch, and add more PoE switches in various rooms in...

    I looked at the... https://www.snbforums.com/threads/wireless-modes-broken-2g-802-11b-g-n-and-5g-a-n-ac.47783/ ....Link and there isn't much testing. Just bunch of gibberish. Mainly; "I tested some wireless settings and they all buggy in 2G and 5G!" This tells me nothing. Nothing concrete or...

    Internet Provider Throttling

    Im brain storming out loud, as to why speeds drops between 5-7am, unless Spectrum is doing major upgrade to their network on hardware side or software side. Or perhaps daily maintenance. But mainentance can be performed on daily basis incrementally with out hindering customers experience. I get...

    Has anyone else seen a performance difference in Upper/Lower 5GHz bands?

    Is there a reason you are using Auto 20/40/80 setting in the first place?? In my experience, I set it to 80mhz and forget it. It worked well for me for many years with no issues. If a device is too far away from a router, then connection speed will drop do to distance, but I don't have to...

    Router recomendations

    Never heard of that specific Asus switch. You can get your self a Netgear 5 port 1Gig switch for about $50. Or get a Cisco WS-C2960G-8TC switch from Ebay for about $60. I don't think you need 10Gig ports, unless you are moving a lot of data on your network, like 4k videos.

    Create aiMesh system

    I have no intentions discussing details how I did it, even though a guide is posted here on the forums. Or was posted? I would have to search for it to see if it’s still here. I also didn’t ask for help how to convert it and your post made that clear. If it’s illegal, then your sticky post...

    Troubleshooting Slow LAN Speed on RT-AC68U

    Do you remember your first school crush in 2nd grade? I do. Or your first fight in 2nd grade? Being punched in the Solar Plexus? ( Took me 5 min just to google Solar Plexus). I do remember the pain and my classmates walking with me after the fight. How about smiley faces your grandma used to...

    I have an AC68U router, currently running Merlin 384.15 firmware. A ZTE Mobile hotspot connected to the router via USB as my only and main source for internet. Every time, I reboot the Asus router or ZTE Mobile Hotspot, I get a random WAN IP from ZTE Mobile Hotspot. The reboot or power cycle...
