There is actually a command script that solves that problem, but if you get into more technical things like VLANs, which I doubt someone using these routers would do, then the script might not work....

Don’t know why people hate on this router, been rocking it for over 2 years now, so much better than the stock Spectrum WiFi router so I’m pretty happy with it. Rarely has any issues.

Is it good upgrade over my ASUS RT-N66U ? I am having range issue on 5ghz with the 6 year old RT-N66U recently.

Find a router compatible with openwrt or buy a mini 4 port appliance on amazon, stick opnsense on it and buy a ubiquiti access point for some decent reliability an usability.

This router is pretty sweet.
I'm using it as an access point (no 'routing') and it has performed well.
I bought the bundle @ $60 and sold the extender locally for $20.

C8 is the better option, it is a newer revision of the A7 and has a dual core processor instead of a single core on the A7. Also has better port selection and MIMO which I dont believe the A7 has.

I bought this bundle for $58 last month. The router works well, despite that I can't figure out how to open a port. I sold the extender on eBay and got some money back. Good deal!
