I'm only speaking of protocols that are ratified.
At 2 floors up, i'd love to see your bandwidth log for a 60 minute copy @ 802.11ac - please post it.

The Netgear 4500 I had wasn't very good. The AC66 is much nicer.
The newest Netgear AC router has just as many bad reviews, but the price on this one is a much better deal.

I'm so confused. This one, or n66u, or netgear 4500? I want one that works great out of the box, and doesn't require me to load alternative firmware, just firmware update is ok.
