Hello there, I use the Asus RT-N12 only as a repeater on a cable Fritzbox because the Fritzbox but so has its difficulties with the wireless transmission even at 2 thin partitions. Since the Asus may well points, signal strength is now excellent and the device has not even lasted 3 minutes. No adjustments to the Fritzbox necessary only click the Asus Repeater mode, select WLAN network and the wireless network key reinkopieren, finished. The rest of the application at the Fritz box it done on their own. The Asus RT-N12 has very clear by the two 5dBi antennas better signal strength and an enormous range advantage of the WLAN. Problems with posting the existing equipment (HTPC, laptop), it was no, since he's SSID identifier-Fi takes over completely. Unfortunately I can not comment on the other, determines great features of the router, I can not try. (Cable) However, if you want to spice up its WLAN via signal strength and coverage for small money, is well advised with the Asus. (Costs less than half of the AVM repeater, but does more!) He also makes optical ago and finally what is in all the rooms the signal strength tired.
