Hi,
I have an ASUS RT-AC87R with the 378.50 beta 2 merlin firmware. I was reading about the FCC changing the max transmit power middle of last year to 1 Watt for lower channels of 5Ghz. http://www.silexamerica.com/unwired/fcc-5ghz-regulations/
Is this applied in the AC87R yet? Is the hardware capable of it?
My main issue is than with that router setup and a netgear a6210 2x2 ac adapter I can only get between 64-100Mb throughput from literally 8 feet away through one door(straight shot if door open).
I have been hunting high and low for the cause, I tried different edimax 1200 ac adapter and same problem. The only thing that strikes me as odd is that on the router it lists the 5Ghz noise level as very high if I understand this right. Im not sure this isn't a bug because on other router I had before with dd-wrt it didn't show this.

What is a reasonable expectation of bandwidth at this distance???
