    ASUS Tri-Band Gigabit (AC3200) WiFi Router (Up to 3167 Mbps) with MU-MIMO to ensure Lag-Free Gaming, AiProtection network security powered by Trend Micro, Adaptive QoS and Parental Control (RT-AC3200)

    • Otherwise you will have terrible unreliable 2.4GHZ WiFi
    • You see - my device base is relatively old - they support 2.4GHz and 5GHz but none of those advanced flavors of them like MIMO, channell grouping, beam forming etc
    • Furthermore I am strongly convinced the 5Ghz never worked only the 2.4Ghz because multiple WIFI devices never found it
    • Comparing with a N66U (a 4 years old one ...) only the 2.4Ghz on the AC88U has a visible improvement
    • The wireless 2.4GHZ never worked
    • The 5GHz bands worked fine, but 2.4Ghz -- which is what most smaller electronics use -- never worked
    • the 2.4GHz was dead which is required for many smart devices as in my case
    • -Wifi signal drops for a split second for a client who's far enough for the router to switch them from 5Ghz to 2.4GhzThis problem can be fixed by disabling smart connection (automatic change to wifi band based on distance, 5Ghz has small range so when you go abit further the router automatically switches to 2.4Ghz and for the switch gap -a split
    • I disabled the 2.4GHz and will leave the 1st 5GHz for visitors/friends to use while I use the 2nd faster wifi band
    • The RT-N66U from the same location has only spotty 2.4Ghz in the garage and the 5Ghz signal reached less than half as far.

    • It was too easy!4.
    • Like a lot of other users - the 2.4G radio failed early
    • The 2.4G works
    • The 2.4G covered most of my house and the 5G covered much of it as well.
    • I'm sure the tester turned it on and saw the 5g worked fine and then boxed it up and sent it back vs. reading what I had wrote and properly tested it for a straight period of over 4 hours
    • The 2G signal strength is amazing even with my metal roof, the 5G works great indoors but not so great a few feet outside.
    • The 5g is fine.
    • The 5G network worked only for 30 days but since then, it has not work
    • First the 5G failed, then the 2.4 the next day.
    • Just like all the others 2g works fine
    • I have tried firmware upgrades, read all of the forums, worked with Asus support and cannot get the 2.4g band to work.
    • Like the rest who are advanced users of networking equipment no matter what I've tried (thermal, firmware, bandwidth, location, control channel, etc) the 5g continues to drop while the 2g is rock solid
    • Love the features and the strong 2.4G signal
    • 2.4G worked fine
    • Normally this wouldn't be such a big deal but with media servers, TVs, AV receivers, security cameras, etc... relying on a stable 5g network, it's completely unacceptable
    • The 5G network worked only for 30 days but since then, it has not work
    • ac3100’s 5g network was gone and 2.4g became super slow, < 6Mbps down
    • The 2G signal strength is amazing even with my metal roof, the 5G works great indoors but not so great a few feet outside.
    • Like a lot of other users - the 2.4G radio failed early
    • 5G was working for me for a few
    • Got this router months ago after reading so many good things abt it, the signal really goes far way, control dashboard has so many functions, HOWEVER 5G band is very very unstable, it keeps playing on/ off line every hour, so if you are looking for a rock stable 5G band go for Netgear or Cisco.
    • However, yesterday the 5G radio failed so it's
