Hey guys, I am looking around for a good router which can support many concurrent connected devices.
I think easily more than 10 devices including smart TV, Android box, PS4, Laptops and mobile. Does this router support stable WiFi for that many devices? And is the coverage wide enough for double storey landed? Thanks This post has been edited by skyp: Nov 14 2017, 09:09 PM |

QUOTE(JayceOoi @ Nov 14 2017, 09:06 PM) Yes stable, my house has more than 10 devices connected all the time. CPU is super fast. No worry about that. Glad to hear that!Mine is double storey semiD, AC86U at middle 1st floor living room. No issue to use it at extended back kitchen (farthest part indoor). Still getting 10Mbit/s transfer rate on 5Ghz with my Mi 6.   Thanks |

Just got mine on 30th Nov, ordered on 20th Nov.
Overall coverage and speed is good, need more time to study on the configuration. Previously im using RT-14HP which quite unstable to me. AC-68U so far so good on coverage and speed after i manually pick the Wifi channel. Do you guys set Wifi Channel to Auto? |

QUOTE(peguin78 @ Dec 5 2017, 09:29 AM) By the way I am using the smart connect feature. Could it be the reason? Anyone using this feature as well. I use the cut off point for 2.4 at -90 and 5 ghz at -70. I used Smart connect at first, then i find it not so stable so i turn it off.Still prefer to keep 2.4 and 5 ghz separately. I am using manual wifi channel, auto is giving me coverage issue. |
