    I live in small apartment and even then the range on this router is quite poor. Moreover, I get huge ping spikes, upwards of 500ms which I have not seen before. The signal barely reaches the end of my apt and any wifi calls cut in and out. I am very disappointed. The speeds aren’t that great either. I am looking to purchase a router from a different brand from now on.

    This router is much faster than my old ASUS AC-1900 which is to be expected. However, it’s far more unstable. Wireless networks frequently goes down. Wired network goes down often as well. This is after updating to latest ASUS firmware too. If you search the net, you’ll see the only way for most people to get this router to be stable is to install Merlin firmware…thats right, you have to install 3rd party firmware for stability, to me this is unacceptable for a $300 router. Thus, I returned it. Purchase this router with the knowledge you will likely need to install the Merlin firmware for stability.
