    Suggestions on AC86U with two USB drives

    I was able to accomplish the setup I have now with the most recent Asus firmware. I'll probably leave well-enough alone since it seems to be working, for now at least. However, I would definitely appreciate advice from any forum members who have two USB drives set up and working on the AC86U...

    Suggestions on AC86U with two USB drives

    Based in large part on SNB's review, I just bought an AC86U instead of the Netgear R7000P recommended by Wirecutter. I have mostly Mac devices and I have had Airport Extreme and Time Capsule routers over the years. My most recent router has been a Time Capsule set up as a Time Machine backup...
