I recently went with a rt-ac66u. It was find but then after two weeks was dropping connections and lose connection to the ISP.
Returned it (Amazon for $140). Found a new rt-ac68R for $99 at Walmart, and have that running now with Merlin.
I want better coverage. Coverage is not bad, but I would like something that stretches out a little further. My neighbor across the street has the WRT1900ACS that I can pick up in my kitchen.
Did some reading on this one and it seems it has great coverage.
I do not do anything other than firewall, nothing else.
My concerns are coverage, and just overall performance.
Should I fork out the extra money for the Linksys? How is it stability wize, does it need reboots? What about custom firmware? Amazon right now it is $199.
My router is in a closet, middle of the house, and of course everything else is away from it, with walls in between.
