Please lah. If I throw 50 wireless devices at it its suppose to settle everything for me. No need for me to worry which zone each device shall go, right?
If I need to worry then this router should not be worthy of buying leow... must remember what is PHY Rate Less/PHY Rate Greater/RSSI etc. Why this router so stupid wan meh?
Yap ... you are right for the first line in theory.
The fact is that now it is a Nope ... that is not practically working now. By default all the rule in the stock firmware is totally not usable. AC device ended in 2.4G while some 2.4G old device cannot connect (my experience).
2 choices on the table now
1) Disable Smart Connect , and wait for the day the Asus bring in the magic that meet this situation - throw 50 wireless devices at it its suppose to settle everything for me. No need for me to worry which zone each device shall go.
2) Go into the Smart connect rule page , understand the setting (honestly I don't understand some of the terms too but just have a learn other people setting at forum and try an error myself to something suitable for myself.
Now I am able to group all old devices 2.4G into 1 band while I am able to distribute 5Ghz devices into 2 different band. Still trying the setting of not DC when 5Ghz drop down to 2.4Ghz.
Well , up to individual choice.
Honestly as I playing the setting - I honestly think that it might not happen the magic that able to come out with a situation that suitable for all buyer. The router have to be real intelligent ....
