All in all, there isn't much of a reason to recommend the board. It did do very well in the obstructed throughput tests, but it is hard to justify its high price and overall subpar performance on that merit alone...

Abstract: As you know, the WiFi technology has evolved a lot the last decade, from the good ol' 2.4GHz band and 802.11n wireless networking standard to the now almost equally widespread, but better 802.11ac standard. So, you have a large array of routers, with diff...

It's clear that Linksys WRT1900ACS is a bit better equipped, has more powerful hardware and delivers a great performance. At the same time, we can't ignore the fact that Linksys EA6900 isn't far behind and even excels in some areas.Now, if you really like...

Both routers are really amazing, but we can see that the ASUS has the upper hand. Some of you may ask why put an AC1900 against an AC2400. Well, we actually didn't. The focus of this article was to see how well do these routers perform in usual conditions...

If you're on the market to purchase a new router, but feel a bit intimidated by all these new crazy looking devices which promise unearthly wireless speed performance, then an AC1900 may be the better decision and both the Asus RT-AC68U and the Linksys WR...

Both routers are fantastic performers, but Linksys WRT1900ACS has some advantages (although not really in a radical way). So what about the price? Well, it seems that both Netgear Nighthawk R7000 and Linksys WRT1900ACS are really similarly priced, with li...

Price (For Some),
The WRT1900AC was a router which we had been waiting for ever since Linksys announced its release several months before it was available anywhere and it was really well worth the wait since it managed to outperform pretty much every router to...

The design of the Linksys WRT1900ACS router is one that continues to evoke memories of the original WRT models. Like them, it offers first class performance and an element of hackability, through the option of open source firmware.The home router market h...
