I have an Asus RT-N66U and thought i would update to the newer AC type routers. I purchased the Linksys WRT1900ACS as it had great reviews. I had several items on in the home on 2.4 and 5 GHz and downloaded a 144 minute movie with my Asus. I then connected my new WRT1900ACS and it performed slower than my old Asus. Any thoughts ? My expectations were that the newer AC router would provide me quicker speeds under heavier loads but this doesn't seem the case.
