Just got the DSL-AC52U from MSY to replace my current telstra router @ only $120inc! checked around, and this is cheapest around the country!

  checked around, and this is cheapest around the country

  That's probably because a model like this is discontinued. Horrible deal when AC2600 routers go for the same price, and can offer triple the speed.

  Here's my unsolicited advice: take it back.

      My advice: wait for Wi-Fi 6.

        Wifi 6 will take years to adopt…

          @Dangit: Three years max for wide adoption for any critical device (tablet, computer, phone, TV). It's still going to give them top-tier WiFi 5 access with MIMO and better routing.

            @jasswolf: Nothing wrong to buy it now though. Just upgrade it to Wi-Fi 6 when it is widely adopted.

            It took me a few years before getting on 5ghz when it started.

              @Letrico: That decision comes down to how many smart devices you see yourself buying over the next few years.

      Here is one from MWAVE for $129

      Or maybe $133 on eBay with a $12 item to get 10% off

    Adding a downvote because this is neither the best price for this model, nor anything like a good deal for an AC750 router.

  Dont bother buying combo routers. Get a modem to get the network in, then a good wireless solution like Ubquiti or Gwifi. Ill never use multi function modems again, signal is shit compared to a good wireless solution

    But then you have to forward your ports as well for some applications.

    • 

      salmon123 on 12/02/2019 - 14:44

      huh? I think this just depends on your config, in the modem and router, not the application.

    You're telling me! I bought this combo router and can't get any internet connection at all …

      Boom tish. It is the Canadian model. Different frequency.

    joeydee on 12/02/2019 - 15:42

    Agreed with beigehornet

    Once you hop over to the new NBN plans, there is no need for those silly modems that TPG sells/offers

  This modem is outdated. Not a bargain in my view.

  Op should sell this on gumtree and get a AC2600 for the same price. Cut loss and move on.

  Archer c7 is similar price and does openwrt, no deal
