I have to disagree with you there. I have 64 devices connected to four LN1301s in a router + mesh network and performance has been decent and stable for nearly a week now. I have 16 IP cameras streaming 1080p video 24/7 as well. (Half of them via Ethernet bridging with the mesh nodes)

Mind you that I only have 100Mbps Spectrum internet but I do stream/direct play 4k videos from a Plex media server to several Amazon Firestick 4k devices without issue. Overall IMO you would be hard pressed to find such relatively decent hardware for so cheap; especially a Mesh network.

It wasn't all smooth at first mind you. I kept getting disconnects; especially with the streaming IP cameras. But I discovered by disabling Express Forwarding all my streaming issues went away. (CA>Connectivity>Administration>Express Forwarding)

I'm guessing that Cisco's/Linksys' proprietary Express Forwarding routing protocol was causing havoc with the IP cams streaming capabilities. Also, disabling Node Steering seemed to make things more stable as well; mesh nodes no longer disconnect from the router when Node Steering is disabled. (CA>Wi-Fi Settings>Advanced>Node Steering)

Dannixrevolution

User feedback across two years indicates better performance with all three off. Express forwarding seems to negatively affect streaming. Node steering interferws with Google Home and Apple Homekit. Client steering slows connection down if you have more than one router.

Of course, user experience can vary so feel free to experiment. if the routers are giving you problems, try turning these features off and see if it works

Hat-Trick

Still waiting for mine to ship from the last $15 deal. Just checked and Woot says SEPT 13. Hasn't even shipped yet.

It's not a deal if you never receive it.

YUP! They're probably running 12-15yo networking tech right now...

And most people don't care as long as their internet works...

Guess I came in late, 9/12. Not sure why a product would take so long to ship out.

Verified Purchase
All three routers I ordered appear to be repackaged.
Upon connecting to the routers to set up, setting ask for SN to be entered and all three routers do not have matching SN according to the labels on bottom.

This reminds me of the T-mobile AC1900 units aka Asus Ac68U that were unloaded for months and even years a few years back. Listed over and over again as they found more stock in warehouses and vendors unloaded failed commercial lines that were relatively easy to convert to 3rd party firmware. Lowest I think they went were $25 during the peak. Guess this will find its way down to $10 eventually if there are huge stockpiles?

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank bcm00re

Just tonight I hooked up the one I got from Amazon (since I am STILL waiting on my 2 from Woot). I can confirm that it's coverage is not as good as the Asus RT-AX86S that it replaced. That said I am hoping that two meshed might provide better coverage than my Asus (but I will miss the AiProtection feature).
