    Just got the RT-AC68W

    I did the exact same thing. I bought the Linksys WRT1900AC and had nothing but problems. Returned it and got the RT-AC68U and haven't had any issues out of it. I'm running the Merlin firmware (which is, more or less, basically Asus's own firmware). Been very happy with it so far since I...
