AC66R Horrid performance

[Find the Door]

I'm not able to stream anything in HD without buffering. I've also experienced some minor connectivity issues on my new PS4 as of late too (party drops, could be PS4 isolated).





Here's my results all with the same device taken in the same exact room that the router is located.



Router 2.4ghz band

Router Hardwired

Motorola SB6141 Hardwired directly

The "Mason HP" is the laptop I was using the test


I just recently updated to Merlin's latest file RT-AC66U_3.0.0.4_374.35_4

Have had issues since, and even before that sometimes while running the latest official Asus firmware


Any insight?

Thanks

Ended up doing a factory reset. I noticed the power light would blink intermittently before doing it (three blinks then off).

I reset everything, and everything is functioning now. Not sure what happened?
