Same price at b&h

No wifi 6

lacks tri-band capabilities
Upgraded from T-Mobile TM-AC1900 Router, Worth it so far
Wondering how it compares to the AX3000, since they're currently about the same price.

Presumably there's a reason why someone would pay the same for an AC router vs. AX?

Quote from Slickone_ :
The AC2900 is the RT-AC68U
The AC2900 referenced in this thread OP is the RT-AC86U.

The RT-AC68U is a AC1900 router.

True. I converted my TM router to AC68u. It's currently running latest Merlin firmware.

Thanks
Is this possible now? I've been on the TM router for many years, but stopped updating Merlin 2-3 years ago when there was an issue with reverting to stock firmware because Asus cracked down on it.

Yes it's very much possible. Here is the instruction on how to do this. You need to be patient and follow the instructions - https://www.bayareatechpros.com/ac1900-to-ac68u/
