has anything changed in yr speed or network?

i used rtn12hp_b1 for 4 years... 10->30->50 mbps, all good.

this router couldn't do well enough with 100mbps when i upgraded, and that's expected.

changed to rtac1300uhp (rm5xx), all good again.

simple setup, almost auto, no tweaking required.

not sure what your home, devices, what u use... maybe like my case... can read my post #7680:

sry, i mean ac86u and ac87u
saw some seller in the garage selling ac87u rm750 each   hmm.gif
for the past 1 month, my internet keep disconnected with RTN12hp. Have try reset the router few time also ask tm to reset the port few time, condition still the same. Finally last week dig out back old tm DL DIR 615 to try, so far no disconnect for past few days. For the speed part felt like 30mb and 50mb about the same on RTN12HP.

My house is double story and my rounter is set at the living hall. My com in 2nd floor only able to received 4 bar network with RTN12HP. Since now planning to get a new router so looking for better coverage.

Pòssible yr rtn12hp about to die.

From yr description, i recommend u the rtac1300uhp... it will be better than rtn12hp or stock router.

More so for devices than have dual band, can easily get better wifi speed if not too far using 5ghz freq.

It is also good when u go 100mbps.

There are surely better routers but will be more expensive.

And for 50mbps, i will certainly not spend more than rm5xx.
