 I Use These Over Cisco/Linksys Now! Jan 08, 2012
By Karl Burrows
I have been continually frustrated with the Cisco/Linksys routers. The older models work so much better than the newer ones and are so much more dependable. In my search for a replacement for use in my IT business, I tried this model. It almost works right out of the box. There is a simple switch in the back to set the mode to access point, router or repeater instead of having to configure it in the interface. Once you plug it into the network, plug a computer or laptop into one of the ports and open a browser, the setup comes right up. There are 3 or 4 steps for basic setup and you are done. Accessing and setting advanced features is easy as well. I also think the antennas are still the way to go to get a better signal. Internal antennas are mutidirectional and can't be tweaked. Many wireless routers sit on top of or next to ISP modems, so you can also get some signal separation. I also like that it has the wall mounts holes on the bottom.
I have found that signal strength is excellent and I have not had any issues with dropouts or sync issues with the ISP modem if there is a power outage or the ISP's service goes out. I have purchased several and have them in place as both routers and access points and will be setting one up at my house to supplement a poor wireless signal from my UVerse gateway.
Price point is excellent, so it is a great value as well. I don't think you will be disappointed with this purchase.

Just too Awesome Jan 26, 2012
By Ravikash
So I bought this Router, and got it just before Christmas. I had a lot of family coming over and they were all bringing laptops, ipads, kindle fires, web supported cell phones, the point is, I needed my wireless signals to get in gear. I had a fairly new Linksys that was as reliable as a Linksys router can be, I mean compared to the other ones on the market Linksys is the best. So I read some reviews and I took a risk on this ASUS router. Since a lot of wireless devices were coming over, I decided to set this router up as a repeater, so more devices could be connected at once. Apparently this router is so good, that you don't even need the CD to set it up, so I decided to check that out. I set the router to repeater mode, hooked it up to my laptop, and it connected and was broadcasting a signal in a few clicks, it worked flawlessly throughout the holidays, No CD required. After the family left I just left the ASUS in repeater mode for the boosted signal strength so I could have a better connection downstairs. But that damn Linksys was still giving me problems, I still had to reset that thing a few times a week. I got sick of it, and pulled the Linksys off, and put the ASUS in its place. Setting up the ASUS as a router required the CD, it almost worked without, so some people might be able to do it. It was easier than setting up my Linksys router, but just a little bit easier not super easy. But, not only do I have great signal strength downstairs compared to the Linksys, but its been running for 20days straight with no problems, and setting up the passwords were super easy, and I feel the security features are much better with the ASUS, and if your a bit techy there are lot of additional options, if you are not, you can just ignore them, and it will work great. So not only is this router a 3rd of the cost of my Linksys router, it works better, it was easier to set up, and it has a better signal strength.
So in case your not sure, all I'm saying is if you are looking for a new Router, buy this one, NOW, what are you waiting for.

I had this router for 8 months now I had to restart for this first time a few days ago not because my router was giving me problems, my modem failed me and I had to restart it. I am so happy with this router I am buying another one thank you ASUS for the great product.

Awesome Multi-mode wireless Networking solution Nov 15, 2011
By G. Beer
"GB"
Finally a device that has smart self configuration software and works great without hassles.
I bought it as a network extender (repeater). It has a hardware switch to change between router and other functions. You connect it with a ethernet cable to your computer. It opens up a browser window and with a few question self configures itself within a few minutes. Very good signal strength. Buy it. you wont' be disappointed. My only con is that the white is pretty obtrusive, I'd prefer black.

RT-N12 Asus Router Oct 06, 2012
By ssbehrendsen
Bought this product with the express intent of reflashing it to run DD-WRT. Works amazingly for that purpose, is stable and now has the features of a $300 router. Currently Performing as a wireless client for my upstairs, to enable my desktop and server to get a solid wireless connection.

A powerhouse! Aug 20, 2012
By P. Johnston
Copied from my review at Newegg:
Pros: Nice form factor. Very sleek. Great performance if you know how to use dd-wrt. I was able flash dd-wrt.v24-19519_NEWD-2_K2.6_mini_RT-N12B1 to the B1 just fine. After setting up the main wireless security and an open test BSSID, I noticed that upload speeds were fine, but download speeds were abysmal. I turn on "afterburner" to "Auto" (Wireless->Advanced Settings) and BINGO!--I was now seeing 20Mbps-40Mbps down. Those wireless speeds are just short of what I see using Cat 5e with my Comcast service. Oh--and this router is nearly "unbrickable"--any time I flashed a bad firmware (TomatoUSB--see below) and it seemed that I had corrupted the router, I just had to put the router into "emergency mode." Once in emergency mode, I could easily put Asus firmware back onto the router using either the firmware restoration tool, or by going to 192.168.1.1 and using the router's built-in interface. This is a very robust little router--and for very little financial investment, too! Also, most people believe this router has only 4MB of flash. I've confirmed that it has 8MB of flash!
Cons: I have not been able to successfully flash TomatoUSB onto this router. Every attempt has forced me to restore Asus firmware via Asus Firmware Restoration utility, which I then replace with dd-wrt. Something about this router makes Tomato a significant challenge. No USB? The cpu supports it!
Final thoughts: Okay, so I cannot get TomoatoUSB onto it. DD-WRT v24-19519 is an amazing build and it turns this <$50 router into a $200-400 router. Gibson firewall test shows this router successfully stealths all ports. It's fast, it's secure, it's slick, it's also very resilient. Thanks, Asus!
