    Thanks for the encouragement. It's just really nice to see signal quality for each device and adjust things accordingly. Next step - finish running the CAT 6 upstairs, and installing a AP. Already took care of the basement.

    DD-WRT was a success. Was able to get Buffalo's version installed.

    Thanks, I'm going to stick with AC as family members do like to stream media around the house. The N600 will do for now. Great point regarding easy upgradbility as needed in the future.

I had it running as an AP before, but after the most recent firmware update on the 1750, started having major disconnect issues and had to stop using the N600.

    I guess those are very valid points. I have been using Asus for GPUs and Motherboards, and I know how they get about marketing. I shall give DD-WRT a shot tonight once I get home. Don't get me started on that. It's like reading reviews online on things and realizing that it's an ID10T error...

    I looked into that, and reading up on all the horror stories regarding the 1750 getting bricked does not give me the confidence that I would like. And also from what I'm reading it seems there is better community and 3rd party support for Asus and other bigger brands. I guess I can just bite...
