I doubt that :s13: They are starting to roll out appointments from 1/7.

Whatever problem they had before which has been delaying the installation, I think they're solved now.

I'm sorry but i just have to ask :s13:

Asus Ac56U or Tp-link archer c7 ?:s13: ( both around the same price. asus at 179 for MR $100 voucher and the archer c7 at $189 )

Family uses the internet for youtube videos, korean drama(iphone and pc ) and gaming( myself. using gigabit lan currently but might move to the room when router comes.)

Router is currently in the living room and my room is the room closest to it (one wall away).

which would be a better option?

Thanks in advance :)

Firstly they're not around the same price. Asus retail price should be around 279, which mean they are for different market segment. If you don't get the Asus one, the $100 voucher will be wasted, and you will need to pay an extra $10 for the TP-link. So unless there is any obvious advantage of that archer C7, just go for the Asus.

For gaming the best option is to run a cable into your room. Since your room is right next to the router, it wouldn't cause much trouble though. There is always enough space for a cable under the door.

I have both routers and they are pretty decent performers if your on wired. On wireless, the Asus RT-AC56U wins by a big margin for 2.4GHz coverage. Features wise, the prize goes to the RT-AC56U on multiple counts, from its more polished UI to the bandwidth monitoring and its already wide support for 3rd party firmware.

At first, I thought I am the only one waiting since January. I don't think I will be able to wait until next year, cuz my contract will end before one year.

Their service is horrible now. :(:(:(
