Hey folks, I've got one of those routers affected by the news today (a netgear) ... i've had some issues over the years with it, so this seems like a good excuse to recycle it.
I'm considering the ASUS RT-AC68U, mostly because it's at the top of the overall ac1900 charts on the SNB site. That being said, what i'd like to know is, as ASUS good at continuing to update firmware for their routers?
I checked their website, and it seems that the latest firmware for it actually has shout outs to forum/community members by name for contributions? that seems pretty awesome... is this legit, or marketing?
netgear has been HORRID for the R6300 i've got. Almost stopped updating it within 6 months after release or something, as a v2 came out.
So yeah, I do not need anything super awesome performance wise, but what i do want is reliability, and ongoing updates re: security etc.
