Re: AP Recommendation

Make sure to update to the latest firmware right away.

It will tell you when you log in to the console if firmware is out of date.

Thanks for all the recommendations and ideas folks! An ASUS RT-AC66U B1 is winging its way to me.

Could be. There are newer models available.

I like the Open VPN Server option.

I'm getting 60mb throughput to the Internet which is fine for my family purposes.

If the B1 is faster go with it. Mine also has USB 2.0 ports. You can hang drives off the USB ports. Newer ones have USB 3.x also.

FWIW: I don't hang any drives off the router directly.

I see the ASUS RT-AC66U B1 router for $94.99 on Amazon Prime. Looks like less throughput on 2.4Ghz, but a faster processor.
