    Client devices rx rates extremely low?

    Thats a relief, I just assumed something was wrong cause my other asus router didnt do this and I couldnt find any info online about it either. Thanks! Now I just need to learn how to setup smart connect correctly

    Client devices rx rates extremely low?

    Just noticed something else, if I select Legacy on 2.4ghz band and uncheck b/g protection then devices drop to 5.5mbps instead of 1mbps and the speeds dont jump around as much (of course it limits all my clients to 54mbps though. All my 2.4ghz devices are b/g/n so I still havent figured out why...

    RT-3100 Client List Constantly Resetting

    @CheeseJam when you said "everything drops to zero" in the client list did you mean that the rx & tx speeds drop to zero Mbps or did you mean that the page list of clients goes away for a second then repopulates?

    Client devices rx rates extremely low?

    I noticed something else (unrealted im sure) but ocassionally when I switch tabs in chrome and go back to the 86u's gui tab under the proffessional header it shows a bunch of settings that this router & or firmware doesnt even have (a glitch in firmware?) ....very strange In the screenshot the...

    Client devices rx rates extremely low?

    Good thought. If that is in fact the case then flashing to merlin firmware should resolve the issue correct? currently using Version 3.0.0.4.384.32799

    Client devices rx rates extremely low?

    I just upgraded my cheap Asus rt-acrh13 router to an rt-ac86u and its great, im getting ready to put merlin on it soon but wanted to kinda familiarize myself with the router and make sure everything is working properly first. So with my $60 asus router my wifi was rock solid, RX & TX rates in...

    Printer connected to Asus Router, won't print

    Same problem as OP, Just got a new Asus RT-AC86U a few days ago and installed printer driver (got same os message as op) Unfortunately I started getting BSOD's every time I would scan for rootkits using Malwarebytes, took me days to figure out it was the printer driver causing the BSOD's! Why...

    Best $200+ dollar router?

    Somewhat of an Off topic question here but im curious If I have 2 modems connected with a splitter & one provisioned for phone and one for internet will mediacom be able to update the firmware on them? If so how will they push the required firmware to the correct modem? Also I wonder if they...

    Best $200+ dollar router?

    Yeah thats one option I am strongly considering, the Asus RT-AC86U & dloading asuswrt-merlin. If I go this route is it just a matter of enabling fq_codel or is there any more setup that needs to take place? Someone said that Ubiquiti will soon be releasing new models with better processors so I...

    Best $200+ dollar router?

    I know the synology is a great router but have they (synology) done anything to combat bufferbloat? I know the newer asus has some sort of game mode and WTFast (not sure how well it works) but latency and ping are my biggest concerns so im just wanting a router that performs well in regards to it

    New version of Arris SB8200

    Is there a new version of Arris SB8200? According to amazon when you look up the 8200 it says there is a newer version, upon clicking on the "newer version" it is the same model # so Im wondering if maybe they have changed something (revision 2). At first I just assumed it was a mistake or a...

    Best $200+ dollar router?

    Well I was considering an all in one router/AP (synology rt2600ac or similar) simply because I dont think I need to add more AP's cause my duplex isnt that big & Ive been getting pretty good coverage thus far. I am fairly new to networking but eager to learn & willing to buy better gear (that I...
