    $9 Router Cooling (RT-AC68U Example)

    i could put $$$ on the fact if u did a study out of 100 routers and took 50 of them constantly running at 125c and the other 50 constantly running at 60c that the batch running at 60c would have a lower failure rate after 5 years. Kinda reminds me of the first batch of Microsoft xbox 360s and...

    $9 Router Cooling (RT-AC68U Example)

    i dont think at any point he said he specifically said he overclocked the router, he made a general statement about overclocking hardware in the past.

    100/50 Mbit ISP overkill for OpenVPN Asus AC66U Router?

    its not your ISP, your its most likely your VPN that is slowing you down from achieving full speeds. this can be anything from your provider being just slower to the host device running the vpn not being fast enough to encrypt/decrypt the encryption being used for the vpn. you would have to run...
