  • Sweet!! and hooking directly to Verizon FioS!
Style: AC1900 | RT-AC68U Pattern Name: Router
Review has two parts - one about the router itself, the other about hooking up this router directly to Verizon FioS instead of using their router. I used to have a DLink router about 3 years ago but stopped using it when I signed on the AT&T Uverse where I was "required" to use their supplied router. The UVerse router was a piece of j**k, limited to 100 Mpbs and wireless G with poor signal strength. It worked okay but provided limited to no control on traffic, parental controls, limiting children's computers to certain times of the day, etc. The RT-AC68U is a beautiful beast compared to those earlier routers, blazing fast, strong signals, and a ton of advanced features that would meet the needs of most home and small business users. Earlier I would get some gibberish names of connected clients, like BRN564332 and especially with PCs, laptops, phones, tablets, rokus connected, I couldn't tell easily which was which - the Asus shows the mac id and if you click on it, it shows the manufacturer of that device and then allows you to name it to enable easy identification later. The network map shows you connected clients, wired and wireless, as well as the strength of the wireless connection. Setting up QoS is easy and highly configurable. Parental controls are simple and very powerful - I can limit the time of the day, by week and weekend, that the kid's Roku can connect to the internet and use the Network Services filter to disable gaming ports by time of day, by week and weekend. (yeah, you need to identify the ports that gaming uses but you can look it up on the internet by game name or the logs in the router show it as well). Have not used the VPN features. Tried the USB download master but I prefer the download and cloud features on my Synology DS213j NAS. The LED lights, even when on, are fairly non-intrusive. The unit looks solidly built. This is my second Asus product, the first being a Windows 8 ultranote book and they appear to be making quality high performance products. Some helpful hints on connecting to Verizon FioS with this router without buying or renting their router. Note this will work only for internet only services - if you subscribe to their TV services, you MUST use their router (but can set up the Asus behind or in front of their router using DMZ feature). When you are ordering FioS online, select "will buy my own Verizon router" and complete the order. Verizon's network terminal, called a ONT, (usually outside the house) has two Ethernet ports, one coax and the other Ethernet. By default, only the coax is activated as they usually run coax to their routers. The Asus router (and most retail routers) do not have a coax port. You must ask Verizon to activate the Ethernet port on the ONT (over the phone with the technical support, initial customer support will insist that you have to have a Verizon router, that is not true) and run (either yourself, if you chose self-install, or have the Verizon install person do it) Ethernet cable from the ONT to your Asus router. Ensure you have Cat5e or Cat 6 cable - they can support Gigabit Ethernet. Ensure you have the same cat cables from the router to your hard wired PCs - I used an older cable and could not get more than 10 Mbps for a whole frustrating week - till I simply switched to cat6 cable and boom!- I was up to 1 Gbps. ... show more

  • Nice device initially, Had some hiccups
Style: AC1900 | RT-AC68U Pattern Name: Router
I replaced an RT-AC66U that we moved to use as an access point to have AC coverage everywhere. I like the RT-AC68U as far as the wire port configuration better than the 66U. On the 66U if you use the stand, the wire ports are facing up, with the 68U, the unit is vertical and the ports exit the rear of the unit, making a cleaner install. The menu is the same and I just copied my customized settings to not have to "re-invent" the wheel as far as port forwarding and such. My only issue is that with the EXACT settings as my 66U somehow - someway my DVR is visible from the internet and via my phone and tablets, but not while actually in the house over the LAN. With the AC66U I could see the cameras from both the Lan and internet. I may have missed a setting (but I don't think so) but I'm sure this minor glitch will be fixed in the first firmware update. I am much happier with the coverage of this unit as a Router and the AC-66U as a remote Access Point than i was with a Dlink-Dir-655 as my router and a Dlink DAP-1525 as my access point. I am a mixed environment of clients wired and 2.5/5 GHz wireless. I believe this router will be very usable for at least 5-10 years. My wireless speed when tested through speedtest.net is about double what it was before with the same device in the same location in the house. I don't think you can go wrong with this unit. 10/31 Edit. Upon first install I thought it was great. However there were many missing features that I needed (LOOPBACK, VPN settings) that my AC66 had and worked great. I was on the initial firmware.205 upon first install. I contacted ASUS and they said new firmware was in process and gave me a link to a beta firmware. Upon install of the beta firmware and a complete from square one reset and reconfigure within 30 minutes the router lost all client connectivity. I did another complete reset and setup with the same results. I went back to firmware .205 and all was well again, with the router functioning fine for the next 2 days. I Contacted ASUS the next day via chat to let them know the issues i had and was told that the new firmware would be out in a few days and this was a bug being addressed. The Week later I installed firmware .291 and it was a repeat of the beta, lost connectivity over all clients as soon as we accessed a program that required loopback and after a reset It just lost connectivity by itself in about 30 minutes. Again did a complete reinstall, reset and setup from square one. Same loss of clients connectivity. Oct 30, Installed FW .306 and again did a complete reset and reconfigure from the beginning. In about an hour again lost connectivity. I reset again and let it run. I had connectivity for about 3 hours, till I ran a program (which works with the AC66) to review my DVR on the LAN via loopback and crash - the AC68 is down again. During this time of lost connectivity I cannot access the router setup without a reboot, All lights stay on, the cable modem shows traffic. The router is just unresponsive. With any firmware above .205 my unit will not function. I really want this to work as the AC66 has been good. But I am replacing an 8 year old D-link router that got rebooted once a year or two, so I would expect the same reliability in a new product. 11/3 edit. I did another install of .306 firmware and clean reset / install. ASUS said to turn off HW acceleration. I did this combined with the DDR memory upgrade utility and its sweet sailing. Loopback no longer crashes the router. Speed is excellent I have 25MB internet and get 24.8MB across my wireless devices on the internet and much faster locally so can't complain there. I just pounded the router with all the traffic I could for the last 48 hours and it has not crashed or given any indication of failure. Not sure exactly what Hardware Acceleration is, but it should not be on by default evidently. Back to 5 Stars. ... show more
