• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Multiple Access Points

    Why even complicate this with flashing routers. The standard firmware is fine for the use. Odds are if a person is asking a question like this they don't even need any of the few additional features that other firmware would offer.

    506e Pix replacement

    LAN Party Networking

    Ditch the hub. Hubs repeat all traffic on each port when it comes in from a port. This is probably a huge part of your performance issue. Thats quite a load for 2 wireless routers, not to mention that if you have both of them on the same channel then they are interfering with each other. If...
