    [Official Release] AiMesh Firmware v3.0.0.4.384.10007 for All Supported Products

    Hey all, I have AN AC5300 and AC66U as an AP in my house. Just read about AiMesh, totally stoked. On Asus website, they show AC5300 as a future release but no mention of AC66U. I've seen on the main (closed) thread here that people say 66u will be supported. How do you know that is true...

    Wired home - Coaxfi vs. AP

    Hey all, I get a decent WiFi signal across the board, but I have a couple areas in particular that I'd like to strengthen. Two story home, central termination in basement. I ran ethernet and dual coax to every single room. The secondary coax line is no longer in use (DirecTV used to required...

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    Well, the $500 price tag was a bit much. For what it did, the eero was pretty fantastic. Super easy to setup and maintain. Yet, it just lacks most advanced functionality (that reality is, I don't 'need'), like QoS, VPN, mobile only management, no real utilization data, no logging, poor decisions...

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    One more question for now, is there much value in ditching my AC5300 in favor of the UniFi SG + Switch? Just debating If I should go all in at this point ...

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    If I'm going to have a UAP-AC-LR in the middle of the house, on the 2nd floor, do you think there's value in putting the In-Wall (http://amzn.com/B06XZLP8Q6) on the first floor?

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    I ordered a Ubiquiti UAP-AC-LR, will be here tomorrow. Figured I'll take that for a spin and learn how to continue to expand into the UniFi world as it appears there are many better options that exist in that arena. Unsure yet If I need any other devices. I think for the short term, I do not...

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    I returned the Orbi for a multitude of reasons and picked up the gen 2 eero. It's very limiting overall, but it does get the job done. Unsure yet If I'll keep. I'm really thinking I should just suck it up and put some Unifi AP's in place. The beauty of the eero is its simplicity, yet I can't...

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    Thanks. I'm definitely open to any suggestions. I just went to Costco and snagged the Orbi. Overall, it's been a mess. Upgraded firmware, that caused all kinds of issues (well known after I found out) and post downgrading, the whole system is now inaccessible. May go try and swap ... but not a...

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    Historically I tried using dual AC66u's, one as router, one as access point. Perhaps issues with the routers, perhaps an Asus issue all together, but did not have great success. Between poor hand-offs and what generally felt like always being on the wrong router, I just didn't have great...

    Wired home - Orbi vs. Router + ?

    (tl;dr, mesh or traditional in a wire house?) Hey all, When I moved into my house, I made sure we ran ethernet to all rooms. It's a 2,400 sq foot home, minus the basement (which is ... 1,200 I believe). I've had a few different setups through the years between dual routers, router + ap...

    Naming devices won't save

    Hey all, Ever since I went to Merlin, any custom name entries in my network map, do not retain. After a random interval of time, they revert back to their original, non-descriptive name. I'm running an AC5300 on on 380.65_4. Any thoughts? Thanks

    Technicolor USA Inc. as connected client?

    Hey all, Really at a loss here. In my connected client list (Asus AC5300), I see two wired connections from "Technicolor USA Inc.". I have unplugged each and every device to the router and my primary switch, reconnecting each one at a time. These devices do not connect right away, but later...

    Asus RT-AC3200 Smart Connect Rules Fine Tuning

    I'm having the same problem with my Amazon Echo; however, I'm on an AC5300. Unfortunately, under 5GHz-2, I can't set the VHT to anything but AC only, except in the last box, I can set all.

    Best way to extend signal without using a wireless repeater

    Summary: With my current setup, I have a weak WiFi signal and I can not move my router. I want to have a secondary wired device in my office to broadcast my WiFi signal off of that has LAN ports. I currently own a WNDR3300 and am having a difficult time obtaining a good signal in certain areas...
