I had an older Linksys WRT54G that worked great with DD-WRT running on it but I want something that can do 802.11 N or AC. So I got a TP-LINK Archer C2 about a week ago it keeps dropping wifi connection and you have to restart the router for it to start working again. What home wireless routers are you using? I heard ASUS is pretty good?

Bought the AC68U Asus a few weeks ago, significant improvement over the Netgear WNDR3400V2 it replaced in both range and speed. Although throughput is weak I can actually manage a usable connection on my phone a hundred yards down the street. Good signal throughout my 3000 +/- square feet home.

When Comcast doubled their download speed I replaced a Linksys WRT54G with an ASUS RT-N66U and have no complaints. The software is easy to use. The default settings are good as is although I ended up changing some. I get much better coverage in my two story house.

ASUS bro.

I have a RT-N66U and RT-AC68W. Good stuff and I'm a network guy.

I got the AC router because my ROG has an AC card. But if you're only worried about N then go the RT-N66U.
