    Repeater choice and its speed-halving questions

    For simplicity's sake, neglecting the range concerns for now. There is a AC750 source router with one 5Ghz spatial streams, meaning 433Mbits top speed. Now, normal people would buy an AC750 repeater and they are sure to have their speed halved. There just isn't enough bandwidth. 1. If I buy any...

    RT-AC68U as repeater at hotel

    Hey all, so I'm at an extended stay that wants to charge weekly per device for internet, which is pretty lame. I have my RT-AC68U with me, and I tried to set it up as a repeater. It worked somewhat, but it keeps bringing me to the sign in screen of the hotel where you input a code, and then...

    Bug in Repeater-Mode of RT-AC68U running 380.66_4

    Hi, i found out, that the Asus RT-AC68U (rev. A2) seams to have a firmware-bug if running in repeater-mode together with my Asus RT-AC88U router. Regarding the 2.4 GHz-band the RT-AC68U chooses the wrong channel (2 instead of 1), although my RT-AC88U router is set to channel 1 (using same SSIDs...

    WiFi extender: is there one that uses 2.4Ghz for both input and output?

    I used to think that the best WiFi extender would use 2.4GHz for the router connection (backhaul) and 5 GHz for talking to my devices. But, not all devices talk 5Ghz and, of course, range can be an issue. So, it now seems to me that an extender that can connect to the router (backhaul) on one...

    Repeater mode on rtac66u with releases >56_2

    Hi, are there any constrains for updating a RT-AC66u in repeater mode with .58? The upgrade itself works, but afterwards the repeater mode is broken. Since 56_2 I can't use any release on a rtac66u, which I use in repeater mode. The router keeps rebooting quite rapidly. If I gain access to it, a...
