I'm not a techie guy so I'm not going to echo what all the computer
geniuses have written. Mainly because I just don't understand it.
While I know my way around computers, my eyes glazed over when I
reviewed the details of this ASUS RT-N66U Dual-Band router and reviewed its capabilities. I
just want something that works when you plug it in yet it seemed the
days of "plug 'n play" were over.
Not that fashion in computer hardware is high on my list of "must haves"
but this
ASUS RT-N66U router does look very nice. The texturing on the flat face and
general material quality and fit and finish is top notch - you
definitely feel value in the build quality.
To explain our
setup for someone in a similar situation, my home office could double as
a large closet. We live in a late 1800's era home where the walls may
as well be constructed out of Kryptonite. The modem/router combination
given to us by Time Warner Cable could barely send a signal to the
upstairs.
Any downstairs use was fine but the only room upstairs that
could get a strong enough signal was in the room directly above the
office. As well, we dealt with constant drop-offs and disconnects due to
the weak signal.
