Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) I have this asus RT-AC66U router and an asus pce1300 wifi adapter. And theese are the ms im getting in 5ghz bandwith. Im like 2meters away from my wifi router and i have 30/30mbit connection. I tryed speedtest by ookla, with the wifi im only getting 10/10mbit. And with cable im getting 30/10mbits. Why is that ? Im thinking its something to do with the channel my 5ghz is on, what do you guys think ? Im not so good with wifi networking.

What do you have it doing? What features (bells and whistles) are turned on? Try turning off everything but the firewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 9, 2017 I've had that same router, it worked great, but then started to overheat (just put your hand on it) and gave those same ping spikes. In my line of work I came across lots of the ASUS 66u/68u's, but for the past two years It's like they've all vanished... not a good sign imo, best router I've ever had.

Thats how I keep my router nice and cool. I just want to sit back and watch the world burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
