Bought this based on many favorable reviews. Current 7 year old router had poor coverage, and slow wi-FI speeds, even when in the same room. Installation was simple and straightforward.

Ultimately the ASUS RT-AC66U router, despite the low speeds in 802.11n protocol, does offer a completely future proof systems as 802.11ac equipped devices are expected to be commonplace by 2015.

You know how much we love the ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight router; a joyously powerful and feature-packed router. Now, with the RT-AC66U, ASUS is taking its Dark Knight router into 802.11ac territory. To accurately sum, this router is the router of the future.

802.11ac support; Excellent performance; Tonnes of features; AiCloud support
