Hi Dane That's interesting. I bought an Asus RT68U and am quite happy with it. I only use it in a basic setup although I know it can do a lot more. I always meant to spend some time with the manual but I haven't got around to it so far. Maybe I will now.
This is a rather obvious question. Is the Merlin firmware fully accessible? I get tired of spending hours with software trying to do simple things with interfaces that turn out to only partly work with JAWS.

Late last year I purchased an Asus RTAC3200 Tri-Band Router and I noted a huge improvement in audio quality when it came to streaming through my network. Various list members discussed their experiences with audio and Routers at the time I recalled. I touched on the subject of other firmware being available for the Router from the Open Source community and another member suggested I try the �Merlin� incantation of the Firmware. Whilst this list is not a place for getting techno too much - though that�s unavoidable in audio discussions often - I can tell you that I�ve applied the firmware and the Router is faster again, notably so. In short if you love your audio and your streaming then I believe you should do two things, take your time and same for an Asus RTAC3200 or something similar and then make some time available to study the feature set of same and - maybe - apply the �Merlin� firmware, you can always undo if things go wrong and go back to where you were. ********** Those of a positive and enquiring frame of mind will leave the rest of the halfwits in this world behind.
