I think the higher end Asus series are quite pointless. It doesn't offer better range. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
Ubiquiti and Meraki are really really really awesome. one wifi network, tapping onto the same domain ID, spanning across 7 offices in Asia thanks to Meraki's cloud. It's so good my co bought 2 for home use.. hahaha. of course you will have to pay an annual subscription fees. If you give 3 antennas to consumer grade maker, they use all 3 to broadcast the signals. When you give 3 antennas to Meraki, they say 2 is good enough, let's use the last one to jam hotspot!!!
Can't really fault Asus on the range though. Singapore condo walls damn kiasu. put a lot of wire mesh in the concrete. LOL. the signal drops really bad across walls. I almost have to have it at line of sight to get good bandwidth. Which is why i'm very interested with the Ubiquiti's system and getting my network all meshed up.
Wow.. The Ubiquiti AP Pro AC version is going for US$300... but it looks (spec-wise) really neat. It even mounts in the ceiling if that's what you want.
i bought a cheap tm dir-615 flashed to dd-wrt pull the access point closer to the center of my house now the wifi is good now everyone is happy
