Reviews around lag (2.94 of 5)

  • The 5g is seriously lacking in distance but that is also a factor of placement and distance, but its not any better than any of the others that I have used
  • Great so far with good 2g range and about the 5ghz range you'd expect in a long house with lots of walls in the way of the signal
  • Overall, the 5G is really fast, and the settings for both area networks are easily customization on ASUS' router pages
  • really good 2.4g range and speed with 10 devices running at same time but for 5

Reviews around star (2.03 of 5)

  • However, when using the 5GHz, the range is VERY poor, -80dBm with 2 walls in between at any point (less than 10 meters/33 feet distance), and hence my 4 stars
  • So for now I do all wireless but speeds are just fine so 4 stars.
  • I gave this device 4 stars because one of the parts didn't work at the Gigabit speeds
  • Amazon customer service was very helpful in resolving this after the fact as unfortunately happened here, and I give them a solid 5 stars for their customer service.
  • I was nervous about replacing it!6/7 update: lost 2 stars, as nearly all setting changes cause the router to go offline for at least 2 minutes while it's "applying settings." Even more aggravating - and a showstopper - is that i often end up with no wireless capability after it comes back.

  • But the hard drive is older and I'm not very good with configuration.
  • (hello D-Link...), the ASUS router's USB jack works just fine for plugging in a portable USB drive to serve an an informal NAS drive for my home to store music and video files for playback via Windows networking
  • Didn't test: guest network (2.4 GHz only).USB Drive:Usable, but as many have noted
  • The USB port with file sharing makes setting up a NAS as easy as plugging in a external hard drive.

Reviews around reset (1.54 of 5)

  • but instead, you lose the connection to the device, and a manual reset in mandatory in order to gain access again
  • This router will now shut itself off after 1 day (all lights turn off, no connectivity) and become a brick until hard reset
  • Once reset, it works
  • After reading a bit more on the subject, I did the hard reset, & was able to log back into the router
  • After calling ASUS and mucking around with it for 2 hours to no avail, I finally figured out out all I had to do was soft reset (power cycle reset that is, hard reset will reset everything to factory)

Reviews around ip (1.00 of 5)

  • You will now be disconnected from RT-ACRH13.To access the settings of RT-ACRH13, reconnect to the wireless network and use the updated IP address and port number
  • Second, my wired interface's IP address and port number should be unchanged
  • I returned the Norton cube because I couldn’t configure local ip’s to work with all my static ip’s
  • If you don't care about ipv6 connectivity this is a good router, and it would probably work with a static IP, but if you have regular residential Comcast internet, you aren't getting ipv6
  • For instance, if you decide to set a static IP for a device, once you click save the "applying changes" takes more than a minute, at which time EVERY device including hardwired devices lose connectivity to the router
