A few months ago, I told you guys that the N66U was the best router on the planet and that you should all get on.
The N66U is still a top notch bit of kit.
but it turns out that my post saying that it was the best router ever was misleading.
The RT-AC66U is now available and is hands down the most advanced router to date.
featuring more capabilities that you could ever need, this is about as mental as it gets.
if you are on one of these fancy fibre connections and want the maximum amount of control over what your network is doing, then this is your first and last port of call.
Stock due tomorrow.
