OK. I now know why I wasn't going to get the AC87R. The initial rollout of any product is bound to be rocky but this is bad. When I upgraded to 376.2044 my 2.4GHz band assumed a life of its own. It runs on Channel 1 no matter what (unless I use legacy mode which limits speed to 54Mbps) and is listed as having a max speed of 216.7Mbps by inSSIDer. The 5GHz band is also "stuck" on auto but is streaming video without issue. I have to leave adaptive QoS enabled otherwise throughput slows to a crawl.
So now I am contemplating going back to my AC68U until Asus gets its act together. I have tried reflashing, reflashing after a reset to factory defaults and nothing has seemed to correct this.
