Asus RT-AC68U v1 vs v3As expected, Asus did not make any changes to the design of the RT-AC68U and they didn't really need to considering that it doesn't occupy that much space due to its vertical case (which actually stood as inspiration to the newer RT-...

Abstract: Shortly after we posted the Archer C9 review, TP-LINK let us know our results didn't match what they found with testing in their own Octoscope-based test setup. The culprit was that the C9's stand-up format positioned a good portion of the router's antenn...
