    ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router Reviewed

    Asus rt-n66u Just found this sweet dashboard simulator for the RT-N66U. It's good for users that are on the fence about buying the device. The firmware version is a little dated, but it's close to what you see. Check it out...

    ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router Reviewed

    FINAL(?) SOLUTION: After returning two units, I apparently finally found one that was not hardwired with a Chinese "locale setting." The firmware version is the same, so I'm not sure what happened over there in Suzhou, but apparently someone has been playing with the secret sauce. Things that...

    Tomato firmware upload failed. Downloaded it, selected the .trx file in the Firmware Upgrade tab. What can go wrong?

    RMA'd first unit, second unit has same issues. Spent another couple of hours on the phone with ASUS tech support. Tried .108 firmware also, changed NTP server, etc... I think it's time to try Tomato.

    68 and Mostly Cloudy in Suzhou! Ahhhhh!!!! After enjoying the Costa Mesa forecast for the last 30 minutes, the Suzhou forecast came back just now. I had turned off WiFi, then re-enabled it. That seemed all that need be done to anger the Chinese weather gods! I don't know what else to do...

    No more Chinese weather!!! Correction - Not-SOLVED: After spending hours on the phone with ASUS, T-Mobile, and HTC (the latter of which recommended that I wipe my phone!), I decided to pair my phone to another router and then re-pair my phone back to my Black Night. So I drove to my nearest...

    Turned off location services, then turned back on. Also rebooted phone. Still shows Suzhou weather and time. 1:50am, 69 with intermittent clouds. Warming up! WTF? This is nuts! : (

    Did it. No change. Could it be a modem config issue?

    Thank you for the feedback, but forgive my ignorance: change my MAC address to what, clone my modem MAC address? Thanks again!

    65 with Intermittent Clouds in Suzhou China! So, after spending some quality time with tech support, I bumped down to .108 F/W, restored defaults, then updated to .112 F/W and manually entered my settings. Still seeing the weather and time in China! It is worth noting that for the 10...

    Any fix for Suzhou "locale setting"? Did anyone ever figure this out? I too have a nice forecast for Suzhou China on my smartphone (74F and intermittent clouds) and would really prefer to see my local weather! Also, if I set the "Date and Time" setting on my phone to acquire via the network...
