The description here says it has software AP. The description on the ASUS site does not say that though. Does it have that? How well does it work?

Sorry I'm not sure. I've never used it as an access point. I only bought it to upgrade my desktop to 5g

I bought this because on here it says it is an access point. But I just called Asus the tech told me it wasn't an AP, and then asked his supervisor who confirmed it wasn't an AP. And it doesn't work with my Nokia 2520 running RT 8.1. And everything I plug into that thing works unless it's really old.

Mine came with software. This ASUS doesn't work. You would be better off trying something else.

Look at the memory compatibility list in the manual and online. The Asus is fussy and just does not work with some memory timings.

I have added AC clients to mine, and there does not seem to be a heat issue, at first it did run a bit warmer than my abgn-Pro APs, but not to a level that concerned me. It has worked flawlessly before and after the firmware updates. In my situation the units are even covered for aesthetic reasons and still no issues whatsoever.

No. It doesn't work. Had to send to asus and will cost you $200. It's not worth it. Just buy new one.

I have been able to get it to work. The comment from LucianG gave me a good hint on how to get the kernel module compiled. After the module is compiled then everything works like normal.I have not been able to get this device to work as an AP. It seems as the module does not allow AP mode like some of the other RealTek devices.

I am wondering this as well. Seems to be a make or break aspect of what otherwise seems a great laptop. I have been scouring the web to see if users have found a fix to the reported poor wifi signal. Any word from Asus would be appreciated.

No. It uses Broadcom drivers so those drivers can be downloaded from the web and installed.

Yes, but the drivers are not all listed on the Asus site. I have it running, but had to find some drivers on other sites.

This board is limited to the FM2 socket, which is the AMD "A" Series. That said the AMD A series has many excellent APU's available for a very reasonable price. The A-10 6800 is a super bargain for the price. It is very fast and the on-board APU graphics are very good. This board does allow a graphics card if your prefer. I do strongly suggest not less than 8 gig RAM, though I personally use 16 gig.

Since it was purchased in late 2012 and the firmware was upgraded once while it was online. I'm going to say yes. I have since sold the unit and now have an Asus online and it works great.

I think Asus had problems with the ac66 & Different Motherboards, I called Asus Support & they checked which motherboard was on my Pc, and told me to Purchase the Ac68. Check support.asus.com or Call @ 1-812-282-2787 or 1-888-678-3688, I get these numbers Mixed Up, but it`s 1 of them, Pretty good Improvement with the Ac68

Hi, you should be able to find the information needed at the FAQ or in the manuals of the Download section in this link-http://support.asus.com/knowledge.aspx?SLanguage=en&p;=11&s;=2&m;=RT-N16&os;=8&hashedi;d=WAa6AQFncrceRBEo

Yes for AP. But if you want to configure any settings, you need to get to web management console. If you use it as signal booster, you'll have to do so through web management console.

Sorry, my son has it in college. But you should be able to get the info. from the ASUS website.

No, it does not. It has a couple of other ap markets but it is kind of sketchy when it comes to aps. If you're looking for something to run aps spend a little more on something better.

I downloaded the manual from asus. There's no mention of a memory upgrade.XP will around for a few more years. Too many computers have XP for it to go away any time soon.
