    Let us know what Asus says but they will never admit to a hardware issue because a recall will cost too much money. They will blame the firmware. If they fixed the VPN issue I wouldn't mind keeping it but DD WRT on the R9000 destroys this router on speed. I'm just concerned with the life of the...

    the restore tool wont take the firmware, do I rename the .w to a .trx to get it to work?

    The Synology gets amazing review. I would go with that as paying extra for the AD standard that will be outdated next year due to the AX standard coming out.

    I'm trying to downgrade the firmware and it just hangs on applying settings, WONDERFUL ASUS!

    Do you use a VPN, probably not. Slow speeds on a VPN shouldn't be an issue with this considering it is more powerful than the X10. Do you like long range? That's not a firmware problem, that's an issue with the hardware. The X10 is just plain better. I have owned them both.

    Mine is fine but the VPN does not work at all now and when it worked on the one I returned it was much slower than the Netgear X10. With the wide spread issues I recommend everyone but the X10 over this. The X10 also had better range.

    Yeah I think I will return this as well, although Netgear not being secure and having a backdoor concerns me.

    It's funny that my VPN worked on the router that disconnected all the time but wont work with the new router. The X10 (R9000) VPN speeds were way faster than the Asus as well. the GT AC5300 gets 80-90Mbps but the R9000 always got over 100Mbps which is 0% loss in speed from my service provider. I...

    I have gone through two and the new one is number 4252 with no issues. I did not look at the number on the one I returned but it constantly disconnected. I contacted Asus and wow what a lost cause they are for support. Truly unfortunate. I had the R9000 before I exchanged it for the Asus, the...

    Asus AC5334 Merlin Build>

    That's ok. It's pretty feature packed as it is but for sure needs stability tweaks as it freaks out and I have to turn features off or flash different firmware to get it to stop constantly disconnecting all my devices then slowly turn things back on. I probably should have kept the Netgear...

    That's the model on Best Buy's web site. It's the GT AC5300. Sorry.

    Will the AC5300 firmware work on the AC5334 that just came out? If not, any plans to support the AC5334?
