The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

At the point of the house, a computer is constantly hanging by cable and from 4 to 10 devices via Wi-Fi (iOS, androids, winphones, laptops, PS3), everything is steadily pulling out and not a single device has connection problems. I would not recommend it to friends because of the price, but as a device it is worthy and there are no shortcomings for me, even the blue lights are turned off in the alternative firmware, unlike rt-n16. An excellent bug-free router, but more modest options are also…

Pros
  • Set it up and forget it, never hung up in a month. The new format is doubtful so far, but finances are not tight and took it.
Cons
  • He was very warm, the firmware on MerlinWRT solved the problems USB 2.0, but this is a dubious minus, but still

Excellent product, the best quality.

If you want a high-quality router, then do not spare the money, you will be pleasantly surprised. In my house there are 3 Android phones, 2 tablets, 2 smart TVs, 2 laptops, 2 stationary computers, everything flies without any lags, I forgot what it means to turn off the torrent when downloading or watching videos online. I did not notice any shortcomings in my native firmware.

Pros
  • I quickly set up, no freezes or disappearances of the web interface (the web interface often falls off on rt-n12, I set up ddns, vpn serv, forwarding, and so on the first time, without any difficulties. There is no time to figure it out further, but the wagon and a small capacity cart.
Cons
  • The power indicator blinked once for about a week, after which all settings were lost. But I set it up in just half an hour. Also, the lack of devices receiving wi-fi standard ac.

Behind the expensive price tag and nice design lies traditionally crooked firmware, the ates of which only worsen the stability of the work. The 5GHz network almost never works, you have to manually reboot (using the button on the back of the device) ten times to catch it. If you have a network storage with movies, music, photos, then this device will ruin your life. Transferring large files over the network, and even more so watching movies, and even more so FullHD, is impossible. High speed

Pros
  • Beautiful appearance. Sometimes it works.
Cons
  • The 5GHz network is constantly disconnected, requires a constant reboot, disgusting transmission speed over the local network. Firmware is rubbish.

Excellent product, the best quality.

If you turn on the Router and the Power Lamp just blinks, this router is in recovery mode. what to do?! We go to the official website and download ASUS RT-AC66U Firmware Restoration and Latest firmware for the router. We turn on the router in the network, the off / on button is in the OFF position, hold down the RESET button and turn on the router, hold the reset button for 10-15 seconds. We connect the patch cord to LAN (1-4) the other end to the Computer. We launch the above application…

Pros
  • High data rate, low response
Cons
  • Glitch from the factory in the firmware

Perfect product for any user!

I have a lot of devices connected to the Internet in my apartment, I needed a new router, since the old one was stupid shamelessly (~ 1Mbit / s, pings for several seconds). I hesitated between the Linksys EA6700 and this one, leaning towards the former due to an extremely negative experience with the old Asus RT-N10 + router. But at the last moment I read negative reviews about linksys and decided to take the asus, which I did not regret. Mac even in the far corners of the apartment, connects…

Pros
  • Very fast network
Cons
  • mounting holes are not compatible with the old RT-N10 router))))

Reliable product for all occasions, quality on par.

Got pros: Before that, there was also Asus N66U which, after 8 years, began to slowly die. The speed is decent, not worse, but not better than the old one. Setup is fast, lots of extras. features Has some cons Very slow boot after restart or power off. The antennas are non-removable, I thought to connect an external one, I could not, although the characteristics say that they are removable. On the old router, the antennas were unscrewed, I could not remove it here.

Definitely not advise to buy, the product is disappointing.

It was revised A2 when I purchased it in December 2022, and now I'm scrambling to find someone who can serve as a substitute for it. Before to that, there was an incredible cell, and its name was the 3COM OfficeConnect Wireless 54 Mbps. resolutely slowed down and clung to that corbina, which represented an endless source of suffering. Because of one torrent, the entire network was brought to its knees, and all other devices were disabled. After that, I borrowed an Asus WL-500W from a friend for

Pros
  • Free dynAmazon right out of the box, which is a practical benefit in the end. But, despite plowing for a total of six years, he did not perish alongside the ends. The plethora of available firmware, Merlin can be found somewhere. The wired component has performed faultlessly for all of these years (4 ports are occupied).
Cons
  • -After two years, the firmware started to become unstable whenever there was a shutdown (even if it was only from the outlet), so manual restoration was necessary, and it's a good thing that I was there. Otherwise, family who do not have access to the Internet would have been forced to wait for a significant amount of time. - After one year, the first problems with Wi-Fi arose; while transmitting huge volumes of data, the transfer would become stalled, and the files would need to be resent. A year later, Wi-Fi networks started to become less reliable, which affected every gadget, every phone, and so on. In order to treat it, a move to a different range was performed manually (from 5GHz to 2.4 or vice versa). And now it enjoys the company of the void, where you won't be able to see it in the list of accessible networks unless you reboot the device first. My best guess is that it's due to the cooling system's overall poor quality.

In fact, very satisfied. Throwing anime and series from a computer to a laptop was pleasantly surprised by the speed. The speed, I can be wrong for a long time, was like when transferring from hard to hard inside the block itself, through the bus (x79 siber). Therefore, it doesn’t really bother anyone once every ~ 2 weeks to press one button - take it, if you have money, I took it for growth and what not to think. :)

Pros
  • It is more difficult to think of what is lacking for home use.
Cons
  • Indeed, once a week or once a month (as necessary) hangs, you need to reboot manually.

The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

Firmware version 3.0.0.4.374.33 has been put through more than half a year of use in a modest office (Merlin build). Supports a Network Attached Storage (NAS) server, as well as five PCs connected to a network, along with a laptop and four devices connected to Wi-Fi. I did not make any use of the "gadgets" that came pre-installed on the device (AiDisk, Download Master, etc.). During the entirety of the time that the system was active, a restart was never (!) Needed, it functions perfectly with…

Pros
  • The quality of the craftsmanship, the dependability of the product, and the availability of active technical support
Cons
  • Price

Not worth taking this, doesn't meet any standards.

I bought it in December 2022, revision A2, and now I'm frantically looking to take it as a replacement. Before that there was a hell of a cell - 3COM OfficeConnect Wireless 54 Mbps. Fiercely slowed down and hung on that corbina, an eternal source of pain. From 1 torrent, the entire network died, all other devices were cut down. Then, I took an asus WL-500W from a friend for a week, and immediately bought myself the same one. It was high-high-high. The first router of the N standard in general…

Pros
  • Free dynAmazon out of the box, a useful feature after all. Well, he plowed for 6 years, he did not die with the ends. The abundance of firmware, Merlin's out there. The wired part plows smoothly all these years (4 ports are occupied).
Cons
  • -After 2 years, from any shutdown (even just from the outlet), the firmware began to fly off - manual restoration, and it's good that I was there. Otherwise, relatives without an Internet would have been sitting for a long time. -After 1 year, the first problems with Wi-Fi began - when transferring large volumes, the transfer choked, and the files had to be sent again. And a year later, Wi-Fi networks began to fall off, on any device, any phone, and so on. It was treated by manually switching to another range (from 5GHz to 2.4 or vice versa). And now it loves to meet the abyss, where you can’t see it in the list of available networks, until the device is rebooted. The reason, I suspect - a very nasty cooling system.

Poor product, the quality is below average.

I don’t know how they write here that this device works fine, I started from the latest firmware and then went down lower, as a result, as I understood, either the firmware is curved or there is trouble with it, the WAN is constantly turned off and the Internet disappears, It heats up quite strongly, in general it is very disappointed in this device, before that there was N16 so there were no problems for two years. Yes, it doesn’t speed, not by cable, not by wafer, my declared 100mb gives…

Pros
  • I didn't find them
Cons
  • The WAN network is constantly cut down, there is no Internet, it heats up quite strongly

Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

Pros: easy to set up dual band wifi gigabit ports support 4g whistle famous brand 3 year warranty everything you need for the router, in general, set it up and forget it With its cons. the signal is strongly weakened through walls and obstacles

I bought a NETGEAR R6300 to replace it (the port burned out during a thunderstorm). While the predecessor gave out 70 for reception and 50 for transmission through two walls, ASUS RT-AC66U + USB-AC53 gave out 85 - 95 for reception, 60 - 70 for transmission. It feels like a striking difference. It is very convenient to set up, indeed, "only 5 minutes". The functionality is significant, everything is described in the characteristics, everything is correct. There are firmwares both "native" and

Pros

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

Didn't expect to be so happy with my purchase. And indeed they say, cheap is not good. About two years ago I bought a D-link Dir 300, a reliable horse, I won’t say anything bad, I did well. But tuned out of hand badly. It was cheap for that. Then I posted more than 6 pieces and realized that I gave them away for a reason. The admin panel is convenient, I set everything up in an hour. I sewed. And the provider did not have to give it for setting up for money.

Pros
  • Build quality, ease of use.
Cons
  • When fastening to the wall, you will probably have to tear off the rubber, soft, legs.

Unsuccessful purchase, I am disappointed.

Used for over a year. Easy to set up, looks good. on wires, the speed and operation are normal, there were practically no problems. but WiFi is just awful. Let's start with the fact that every 2-3 days he simply refuses to connect tablets and phones (both on an apple and on a robot). Solved only by reboot. The apartment is in a "new" socket, but it does not break through a maximum of 2 walls (14 and 18 cm). further - everything dies and I had to install a second router. So, if the first one is…

Pros
  • appearance, ease of setup and use, applications for remote configuration. Stable LAN speed, 5GHz WiFi network
Cons
  • WI FI cuts speed and flies off.

What you need, a cool purchase, I advise you.

You can play around with VPN tunnels, in particular, change your gray 3g modem address to white thanks to external VPN services, as well as set your own server in Hong Kong to a white address to combine networks (for example, dachas and Hong Kong) into one network and access to video surveillance of cottages from anywhere in the world. Bought for organizing video surveillance and coped with its task. only now it only supports old modems - this is a big minus. - even Huawei E3272 did not accept.

Pros
  • fast speed, the presence of a VPN server and ready to create a virtual network for 10 hosts (computers) (feel at home everywhere and have access to your home devices from anywhere), also the presence of a VPN client that can be included in conjunction with a 3g WAN or with a wired WAN changing thus, the external ip address of the router or becoming a client of a vpn server via a 3g modem (for example, located in Hong Kong in an apartment - I have asus rt-n18-u as such a server)), a convenient web interface, the presence of a print server and various services related to storage data on a flash drive, + cloud services. To expand functionality and increase convenience, I advise you to flash the firmware from Merelin. It has even more convenience and information content, + additional functionality, in particular with regard to VPN servers and clients (very convenient).
Cons
  • Stupid setup of routes, they don’t want to change, the default route could not be changed. when connected to a vpn server, all traffic goes through it and does not want to change. On the zixel, this changes in two counts. right there the firmware was not made for people Sometimes it gets warm. Therefore, it is necessary to 1. put the router so that the sun's rays do not fall on it, 2. put it on a stand on the end, and not flat, as we usually used to put routers. The main disadvantage - Does not support modern mobile modems. I upgraded to the firmware "From Merelin" but I have not tried new modems with this firmware yet (since I already bought e-173 huawei). When I have time, I'll go to the market and check it out. But you can connect your android phone with a USB cable and it will recognize it and start using it as a modem. I recognized all my samsungs. Do not forget to press on the phone itself - turn on the USB modem. I haven’t tried it with IPone, I don’t have it, they always have everything not for people.

I'm trying to persuade him to work for the third day. Connected to Beeline. I have 3 laptops, a tablet and five other devices. I bought it to replace dir-320. Dlink plowed for almost two years, but the tariffs changed and it began to cut speed. I chose it according to the reviews, launched it, flashed it for the latest firmware 3.0.0.4.270. I connected to the Internet without any problems, at first I didn’t tinker deeply in the settings, and when testing the wafer, I didn’t give out more…

Pros
  • AC standard, gigabit LAN, mythical review test results.
Cons
  • Glitchy, raw software.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

This device is not for laymen. I would say that it is more suitable for the IT-specialists, which I am and just eat with joy that I use it. A person who does not have sufficient technical knowledge will not reveal the full potential, and ordinary users do not need it. With regards to 5G - it never fell off. Since I have an AC standard card, I am immensely happy. I used another N-standard router, but problems have recently begun, since in our huge house all the air is stupidly occupied at 2.4…

Pros
  • I will not write about the stylish look and all that. Its main advantage is 5GHz. Extremely pleasant in functionality and holds a large number of devices without cutting speed. Himself puts the firmware with your permission.
Cons
  • Really gets really hot. I would say that 50 degrees is normal for him. Well, what do you want? This is a serious processor. The cooling system could really be improved.

I did not regret the purchase, everything is fine.

was surprised by the amount of criticism of the connection in the 5 GHz band. My experience shows the opposite - that of those devices that I used, this is the most stable at these frequencies - there are no gaps, nor concrete walls present a problem for connection (though I have only one concrete one))), the rest, through which it is necessary to finish off the signal - not carriers). A small fly in the ointment is the heating of the case, which, according to my calculations, in a…
