Overview:

Stylish router with support for Wi-Fi 802.11n and Gigabit Ethernet

• Supports two frequency bands (2.4 and 5 GHz) to provide a total data transfer rate of up to 900 Mbps;
• Gigabit Ethernet wired ports;
• System of offline download of files Download Master;
• Powerful removable antennas provide a large wireless coverage area;
• Two USB ports;
• Convenient graphical interface.

Excellent performance and flexible settings
RT-N66U is a modern wireless router designed for demanding applications (online games, streaming video in high definition formats, file sharing). Operating in two frequency bands at once (2.4 and 5 GHz), the RT-N66U is capable of providing a total wireless bandwidth of 900 Mbit / s. Numerous functions of this device are available through a convenient interface that does not seem difficult even to inexperienced users.

Dual frequency support for wireless networks
Due to the possibility of simultaneous operation in two frequency bands (2.4 and 5 GHz) with a speed of 450 Mbps in each, the RT-N66U provides a total data transfer rate over the wireless network at the level of 900 Mbps.

Increased wireless coverage
The ASUS Ai Radar technology provides improved Wi-Fi network coverage without increasing power consumption. By intelligently determining the location of the connected devices, the RT-N66U converts a weak omnidirectional signal to a strong unidirectional, which provides a higher data transfer rate.
Simple setup procedure
Setting up the RT-N66U is an extremely easy and simple process. Just turn on the router, connect the necessary cables to it and open the web browser on any device with Wi-Fi, for example, a laptop or tablet computer. In the configuration page that opens, you need to enter the username and password provided by your ISP - and the router itself establishes a connection to the Internet!

Powerful functionality and easy administration
A convenient interface and special “wizards” of settings make it easy to configure the RT-N66U according to the user's needs. Even beginners can easily set up an Internet connection or network printer.

Optimize network bandwidth usage
The Quality of Service (QoS) feature implemented in the RT-N66U router allows you to specify the priority of bandwidth usage of an Internet channel by various applications.

Two USB ports
The RT-N66U has two USB ports that can be used for a wide variety of applications. For example, by connecting an external hard disk to them, you can download files without using a computer. It is also possible to create a network print server based on a USB-compatible printer.

Offline file download
Built-in offline download system Download Master allows you to download files from the Internet to a USB-connected external hard drive without using a computer.

Support up to 300 thousand connections simultaneously
Support for up to 300,000 simultaneous connections means that the RT-N66U will provide high performance when downloading multiple files in parallel.

Multiple wireless networks simultaneously
With the help of RT-N66U, you can organize up to three wireless networks in both the 2.4 GHz band and the 5 GHz band, and for each indicate individual access rights and the priority to use the bandwidth of the common Internet channel.

VPN server
For secure Internet access, you can run a VPN server using MPPE encryption.

Hello. Help solve the problem. Router asus rt-n66u, LAST. 2 months ago, the norms worked, and even now the rules in the prince works, only after I left to rest for 2 months, and then I arrived there was a problem like this: HP printer and sony xperia z phone, before leaving the norms, after the arrival (router and the printer was off) the printer and the phone do not see my network !! After any reboot, the printer saw the network and connected, the phone also disconnects constantly, everything happens at a frequency of 2.4 (5Hz printer does not see), iphone, laptops, apple tv, network see and work norm. I tried to install zyxel keenetic - the printer and the body see and work otayut standards (so that the problem is not in the printer, and not in the phone). So this is why the phone and the printer could not see the network, and the phone is still falling off wifi (helps on off the wifi of the phone) ??

Try to save the settings and reset the router. Then the settings pour back. And it's better to just reset and configure the router again.

[wita74]

Did, did not help. Anyway, the phone then sees it but constantly breaks the waffle. I think something in the settings but what exactly I do not understand and how

[cooler.nvkz]

wita74,
I did not install firmware updates on my phone?

[xGrusha]

When entering the address 192.168.1.1 I get the message:
A change has been made, causing a disconnection to setting page.
You can make Wi-Fi to RT-N66U.
Please re-connect Wi-Fi and the modified IP-address of the RT-N66U.
and can't go to settings.

[wita74]

XGrusha:
Here's the translation: The change was made, causing a disconnect to set the page.
You can made a change in changing the IP address, changing the port number or disconnecting Wi-Fi to RT-N66U.
Wi-Fi reconnect and use changed the IP address and port number to the RT-N66U access setup page.
and you cannot go to settings.
Council try make rezet router and reconfigure

cooler.nvkz,
The phone was stitched, a new office firmware, but with other standards routers, but this isn’t

[cooler.nvkz]

wita74,
And this is such a bug ... on one firmware on the phone / router it works ... you put something else and hello glitches ... the android sometimes shows a sharp intolerance to some routers ...

[wita74]

cooler.nvkz,
But not)) for xperia z, it is advisable to set the channels to 10, if I install 1-9 then the printer does not see the router, if more than 9 channels I put the body is buggy. You do not know how to assign an ip to any device on a router so that it is permanent, you figured out zyxel and then how?

[wita74]

And another question: I want to put the hard drive to the router for torrents, etc., which system is the best format to put EXT3 or NTFS? And why

Post has been editedwita74 - 20.08.13, 16:35

[cooler.nvkz]

wita74,
EXT3 because the tests work faster ... but on the condition that the screw will live happily ever after at the router and will not stick in much more ... on the Windows just like that EXT3 will not work ...

[pasha_550]

cooler.nvkz @ 08.21.2013, 06:20

EXT3 because on tests works faster ...

In a hat ontrunkthere is a link, judging by the picture - n56 is faster than ntfs.
http://www.xbitlabs.com/images/networking/...-n56u/diag1.png
Hereit seems too ntfs is in the lead.
Threat For the 66th did not find. Here isfor the 66th, ntfs again leads the way.

In the LAN settings on the DHCP tab at the bottom there is a list.

Of course, I don’t follow, but judging by the graphs, there is a difference in speed at the level of error when measuring. )

[masterpsp]

Try to put the firmware from Tomato, it helped me

[Stasman]

masterpsp,
When I put Tomato on it from Shibby and Toastman, they cut wifi speed strongly and generally worked strangely.
I downloaded the latest versions recently, but did not try it for laziness, another piece of hardware appeared and now I only need a router from the router :)

[wita74]

masterpsp,

I am against all sorts of left-hand firmwares, the more bad I rummage in the English language, and in principle, it works fine. The whole thing is in the settings - ipad mini sees both ranges, but the apple tv does not want to connect to either 5 Hz and 2.4 Hz norms.

[glug]

The problem: a computer with win 8 on board, an asus n900 router (rt-n66u) and a hp laserjet 1012 printer. The printer is connected to the router via USB. Through the program from the disk, the router recognized the printer, on the computer in the section * control panel-devices and printers * there was also an entry about the printer, but in the tab there is something else. I can not print anything through the printer. I slipped the firewood in mind, and from win 8 and from win vista, did not help. If anyone knows a solution to the problem, please help. :)

PS: firewood under win 7 on this printer does not exist.

glug,when it is impossible to pull up firewood from the grid to the network printer (options: the printer hangs on XP, and printing is required from 7/8 x64), I use the connection via LPT. That is, install the driver package in the system and in the settings specify the LPT1 printer port (or any other free one if the first one is busy). On modern systems, usually, for this is a gui interface. Or, at the command prompt, command: net use lpt1 \\ printer network address

Shoore,
if there is any detailed guide known to you, please give a link. for in some way, unknown to me, I forced the Windows to see the printer and recognize it, but now an error constantly appears when printing.
