Which one did you get?

yeah, what he said. cuz if that thing can cover a house that large, I might try to take back my Asus.

I just ran new cat5 throughout my house along with installing a new router and 2 switches. The router I bought was the Netgear AC1900. As others have stated, it c should be considered a signal flamethrower. And my house is 2 story 3800sq ft. And I get signal all the way out toy pool which was my goal. My neighbors also can get a steady 2 bars off of it. It has dual channels but it also has a second "guest" SSID that requires guests to log in through a Web page. Like other units on the market I can disconnect and allow access to anything on my home network. Since my neighbor was told by ATT that there are no available ports at this time for DSL, I have allowed him to jump on my guest network so he can take his online classes. Also I would like to mention, it is roughly 2000-250' between our houses and his is up a hill. I had bought a second router to turn into an access point but it turned out to not be needed. I also run GSM repeater in my home due to shitty ATT signals. I get 4G LTE from that when I had zero service before. I only mention this because I at first thought it may interfere and it does not.
