Any suggestions on what to do with an RT-AC66U?
This unit was providing wireless service to my many devices throughout my house, but a recent electrical storm may have damaged her. I just purchased a GT-AX11000, which has, so far, provided more speed to the various devices at the farthest edges of my property. However, I did a factory reset on the AC66U and it appears to be working. I had considered using it as part of an ASUS AiMesh setup, but it is apparently one-model-too-old to use the AiMesh firmware. The RT-AC66U B1 version works with AiMesh, but not my original version.
A wireless bridge?
Give/sell it to a family member with an even older router?
I doubt I could sell it since it has a large piece of the top cover broken off, the power button doesn't stay pressed down (I have a piece of cardboard taped over it to hold the power button in), and the AC adapter jack is bent.
The gal has provided me several years of service and withstood several drops and mishaps by the kids. I hate to throw her away if I can help it.
