    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    So I contacted Ubee fantastic customer support and obviously there are two ways to login to the modem: normal user or admin. The "Operation mode" only showed up in admin mode

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    One last question if you don't mind. I remember you mention about putting the modem to Bridge mode to disable its routing functionality. However, I couldn't really find a "switch" to do something like that in the modem GUI. I did discover an option named "Pass through" but not really sure if it...

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Finally I asked our ISP to replace our very very old modem (200 MHz & 8 MB RAM, date 2004) with a "newer" one (800 MHz & 32 MB RAM, date 2010). Our network has been very stable ever since. So the modem was the problem after all!

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Update: adding 2nd router as AP helps. I migrate about 10 devices to the RT-N66U. The system has been up for few days without the need for a reboot/reset

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Our internet speed is only 15/2 Mbps I think so the modem should be more than capable of. We might try to call our ISP to see if we can have it replaced. Thank you very much for your help!

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Can you elaborate a little bit more? I'm pretty novice when it comes to these things. Anyway below is the screenshot of the WAN page. I once bought a new modem but it didn't work since my ISP only allow to use their provided modem

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Ok so It has been more than a week since I got the T-Mobile TM-AC1900. I'm still using the stock firmware provided by T-mobile (will flash to Merlin later when it passes 30-day return mark). The wifi speed is so much better. Our AC-capable devices such as laptops and phones love it. However I...

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Yes. I often buy used/new off amazon and have great experience with their return as well. But sometimes the tax put me off. Anyway I've just bought a T-Mobile Personal CellSpot which basically is a rebranded Asus RT-AC68U off eBay for less than $100. Paypal free return promotion helps me decide...

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Thanks for the info! However the review for AC87R doesn't look so good to me I think I will stick to AC1900 for now per Tim's advice

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Yes, the source is fine most of the time. I usually check it using my phone data plan to ensure it's working. Thanks for asking!

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Thanks for the suggestion! I tried that before with both Tp-Link WDR3600 and Asus Dark Night but it didn't help. This time I'll give an AC router a try Great! Thanks for the heads up! I'm looking for an used one on eBay. Seems like with $100, I would be able to grab one

    [SOLVED] Router for 20+ devices streaming video: RAM or CPU is more important?

    Thanks again! I've looked at the reviews for RT-AC56 and its weak 2.4GHz band really bothers me as all phones I'm using are 2.4GHz band compatible only :/. Don't know if there has been a firmware fix for it recently. Maybe I'll have to wait for RT-AC68U price to drop a little bit lower. Right...
