I ask because I recently changed from an N66U to an AC56U and was pleasantly surprised to find the 'new' AiProtection feature. This got me wondering as to why older models like the N56U and N66U did not receive this feature even with the latest firmware versions.
Having suspected that the CPU on the older models might not have been sufficient in terms of performance to satisfactorily rum the AiProtection engine, I looked up the the hardware specifications of models which did and noticed that they all had dual-core CPUs in them, namely the AC56U and up. One particular outlier is the AC66U, which has the same single-core CPU as the N66U, and correct me if I'm wrong the former does not have AiProtection as well.
With all that said, I'm guessing AiProtection is a feature which depends on the underlying CPU used? Can anyone kindly confirm this?
Thanks.
