    Best iphone 5 settings for Asus RT-AC66U

    I've also read to disabled 5ghz if i'm not using it. Also: - Do not use 'N Only', use Auto for Wireless mode. - choose the channels for both the 2.4GHz band and the 5GHz band. Do not leave this setting at auto. I thought overclocking the router would give me better range, but that's not...

    Help..It's really weird. I can not connect WIFI.

    Have you tried to click on the information button for the wifi, then "Forget this network" - re-add it with the password and it should connect. I've had to do this with most apple devices when messing around with the channels or any other wifi settings.

    Best iphone 5 settings for Asus RT-AC66U

    Thanks Jegesq! I managed to scan my network, and find my neighbours networks. There are 3 other 2.4Ghz networks around, none of which are on my default channel 6, they're on 1 and 11. I've changed some settings which appear to have given me better range, and great speeds at those ranges. I'm...

    Best iphone 5 settings for Asus RT-AC66U

    Best settings for Asus RT-AC66U for range for ipads and iphone 5 I recently bought the Asus AC66U, and have flashed it with the latest Merlin build. 3.0.0.4.376.49_5 I am in a 1400 sq ft rancher with only one other signal around me from my next door neighbour on 2.4Ghz. I thought I would get...

    E3200 Running Tomato - Looking for best 5Ghz settings.

    I'm wondering if anyone can comment or give me suggestions on getting the best range and throughput on my e3200 router. I've managed to get the 5Ghz range in just about all rooms except a few. 2 iphones and 2 ipads + printer reside on the wifi right now.

    In the market for a new router ... which one of theses?

    Yes that's true - many noobs on amazon for sure. I'm leaning towards the nighthawk router right now, and running DD-WRT and PIA (as much as I'd prefer the interface of Merlin). Seems as though connectivity and range is far greater with that router with "AC" mode, even with "N" only devices.

    In the market for a new router ... which one of theses?

    Thanks for the reply. Just curious if you're running a merlin build? Perhaps that'll help your wireless signal strength? Isn't the signal strength customizable with Merlin (over 80Mhz)? I actually just bought the RT-N66U today and am going to pick it up at staples, unless I can be persuaded...

    In the market for a new router ... which one of theses?

    New to the forums and have been reading a lot of the Asus routers (Rt-N66u and RT-AC66u and AC68u) and which ones to buy. Or Nighthawk Ac1900. I'm currently running a e3200 router on tomato and am running into a ton of issues, specifically in my 1400sq ft rancher, and wifi connections. 15ft...
