apples routers test very poorly compared to other high end routers in its price range. Get a high end netgear like an R7000 and it blows away the airport in every category and has additional features like built in VPN which is pretty awesome.
smallnetbuilder.com for all the data you need
I have both an R7000 and an AC68 and both are amazing machines.

That's the next step. I looked at the R7000 too but it got mixed reviews. If this one eats it again I'll end up with the Apple or high end net gear

Evan Wrote:anyone want to buy a chromecast? i have 2 and i never used the 2nd
does the originating device's screen have to stay on the program, or even be on to display out? or can you start/send a movie to the chromecast and do something else with the tablet/phone or let the screen sleep?
on my tablet i can close it and it still streams hbo go with the screen off

Most annoying to me is that you can't just play from your phone "camera roll" to TV. Have to upload to YT first. Might be something you can do with a YT app to play directly from phone to TV w/out actually uploading but that wasn't going to help me Saturday night so I stopped reading...

I have a little bit of a rub near lock but if you are turned to lock on a track there are other problems already...
I have one possibly 2 for sale as well.
Oh yeah - it's also reallyyyy annoying that the standard music player wont play to the TV..you have to be in google play, and it won't let you do songs you didnt buy on google play..fuck them. Separately, I have no idea why no one has made a screencast app that just picks up everything you do on the tablet and pushes it to TV.

It does on certain devices, my S5 can do screen mirroring.

I lust after them all the time. I tried to justify buying one as a tablet, but it was just too big and expensive. If I was a coffee shop worker or didn't already have a behemoth laptop for home use, I probably would have grabbed one.
