    RT-AC88U Dual Wan load balance

    you need to understand the difference between load balancing and link aggregation , you not going to get 150/125 unless both the router and isp's support link aggregation

    NETGEAR's Orbi 2.0 Software Release has Mesh Daisy Chain Functionality

    certainly much faster speed over the ethernet backhaul for ethernet connected clients as the rbk50 is 1733M and the rbk40 is 867M tbh i would start with just 2 x orbi and see how the wifi performs and then look at what else is needed

    Ubiquiti called out as a fraud

    yup sounds like the rantings of someone who isnt happy with the company and is determined to make himself heard even if most of it is gibberish and sensationalism

    AC88U... Merlin Worth it?

    well you suggested if your happy with the stock i see no reason to need to go merlin until you need its specific and extra features , the reason i say this is merlins fw is built on the stock and relies on the stock base , installing merlins wont give you extra coverage or faster throughput

    RT-AC86u Officially announced

    lucky most have worked out that usb is really not worth it apart from maybe printers , with NAS so cheap and the fact it doesnt tax ether cpu or ram on the router btw havnt been testing the 86u for long but it seemed stable and without many issues at all , pretty much ready to go out of the box

    RT-AC86u Officially announced

    hi guys first thing of note is its form factor , surprising in this age of bigger and bigger and bigger monoliths when it comes to wireless router the rt-ac86u believe it or not is almost exactly the same size as its predecessor in the rt-ac68u , this is achieved by running the 4th 5 gig...

    NETGEAR's Orbi 2.0 Software Release has Mesh Daisy Chain Functionality

    Move the Router Antennas up or down

    beamforming takes care of most of these issues these days , antenna orientation used to be a thing back in the days of wireless G and N but not so much any more
