    RT-AC5300 design problem in power consumption?

    >>Cortex A9 ain't a very recent design, and Broadcom didn't implement any clock throttling >>in their design (I assume it's for latency reasons). that's the point!

    RT-AC5300 design problem in power consumption?

    sorry for not having mentioned the voltage, no, I wouldn't be surprised for a value of 150mA at (19V Output), configured as Access Point and WiFi switched off, the RT-AC5300 actually consumes in this status 150 mA at (220V AC Output), that is like a 33-Watt light bulb ;-) ...and configured...

    RT-AC5300 design problem in power consumption?

    I'm really happy with my Asus RT-AC5300 router in functionality, but can someone understand, that this router beeing configured as "ACCESS POINT" and WiFi switched off, still consumes 150mA, just for keep on working the Gigabit Switch? manilla

    ASUS RT-AC5300

    I tested two of the AC3200's for several weeks (Amazon Christmas deal) before I returned them and ordered the AC5300, they worked well, but in the 2,4GHZ frequency my AC66U had better signal range. I suggest to update to the last available version of firmware, when updated press the reset button...

    Asus router app

    it has nothing to do with Merlin's FW versions, it doesn't work at all even on Asus FW!!! There isn't any description of this funny app how it works and what devices are supported, it's really not worth the time to spend with. ...."Connection failed" even so on my AC5300 ;-)

    Asus RT-AC5300 poor WiFi on 5G-2

    willyburz I tested the AC3200 for nearly 4 weeks, didn't had any issue, and considered for some time whether to keep it. I liked it too. yeah, will do some channel tuning!

    New Official RT-AC5300 Firmware 3.0.0.4.380.1355

    hi, got mine ac5300 yesterday, and out of the box the router worked well. As we know, first thing to do is to an update to the last version of Firmware. Updated to 1355 and reset the router, results not coming up with 5G. So I went out for a short walk with my dog and when I came back 5G-1...

    Asus RT-AC5300 poor WiFi on 5G-2

    I did no channel tuning on ac3200 (was a Christmas deal at Amazon), out of the box the Speed went to 800mbit, 5G-1 and 5G-2, but in my feeling, at more distance, it looks like the ac5300 keeps the signal more stable in 5G. It menas, 5G is really useable at longer distance with this ac5300...

    Asus RT-AC5300 poor WiFi on 5G-2

    yeah, I saw this on different Websites that 2,4 Ghz shoult be slow on ac3200, the ac5300 is much better for 2,4GHz. same distance as mentioned above for 2,4GHz , 5G brings 200-260MBit/s very good throughput!

    Asus RT-AC5300 poor WiFi on 5G-2

    in 2,4 GHz the "Auto" config set the channel to 6, I changed now to channel 1 manually, it looks like the speed became a bit better, see full output signal and 144 MBit/s, though first at channel 6 I hat 144MBit/s too , the AC5300 is located two room away from my Lenovo Notebook.

    Asus RT-AC5300 poor WiFi on 5G-2

    it's crazy that the Firmware is programed in that way to stay fix at channel 140, offering really poor WiFi, instead of trying different channels in "Auto" mode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks Matthew for the hint to change manually the channel, I thought my router is faulty
