This one came with V 5.25 loaded on it, After I Checked on line and found the current Version, You could load RB OS V 6.27 using Winbox If you would like.

It will depend on when the unit you receive was manufactured. Mine shipped with an outdated version, but I updated it to the latest version (6.x). The update process is fairly straightforward.

This version is ready to run. It contains the routerboard RB2011, pre-assmebled into the pictured enclosure with the antennas and touchscreen LCD attached. I recommend getting a couple of MMCX to SMA pigtails if you want to upgrade the stock antennas. Also upgrade the RouterOS version to the most recent if it's out of date.

I am sorry I do not use Windows OS but it works well with Ubuntu and Mint distros. It is also an IPv6 ready Router in case your ISP supports that...

I received a model v9.3 which DD-WRT does not support. OpenWRT will support it, but it requires more command level changes to get it up and running.

I'm using dd-wrt.v24-18946_NEWD-2_K2.6_big It's Eko's Big build for this router. Works like a champ!

DD-WRT.com shows support for it. I'm gonna install it when I get my router in.

DD-WRT & OpenWRT both now have (relatively) stable implementations on this router. It is coming along but as of right now there are better routers available if open source is highly desirable to you. I wouldn't purchase this router with the expectation that any particular firmware or feature will exist for it. If you're going to buy it you should buy it for what it ships with.

Hi Ivey, the one you picked is just a switch, not a router. You can go through this process so we can start suggesting a router for you. Here it is: http://goo.gl/7zB1dc

No, there's another version on their website that has the connection needed to hook up to a router.

My refurb was a revision 1 which was important to me since I needed to install DD-WRT. Make sure everything works properly right away, though, since I ended up with a weird one--it works with the included LAN cable in the WAN port, but not with any other cable I've tried since. Refurbs can be odd birds and hiding places for trouble.

Thanks. I decided to go for it. My parents have the older model and I decided that if it didn't work for me we could trade routers. It ended up working beautifully, and so far I am quite satisfied. I haven't tried out all the new features yet, but I am getting good connection throughout the house.

There is a voucher in the box for the router plate. You will need to call Incra and give them the code on the voucher and let them no your router model. They will mail you the plate.

I haven't tried it yet. I'm using the August 2013 firmware. I don't have any problems with the router, but my use is pretty simple.

The "U" and "R" models are the same "Ohio Mom" is correct "U" is primary sold online and "R" is for "Brick-and-Mortar". The only physical difference I have seen is the logo on the router is gold for the "R" version and silver for the "U" version. I have had both versions of the RT-AC66 and could not find anything technically different. There are 2 separate firmware sites on ASUS web site but the version numbers are always the same.

Probably Cisco; adapter, CD and ethernet cable included. I always buy the factory refurbs if possible.

There is a sticker next to the SKU which contains the serial number, firmware version, and hardware version. The latter will look like "H/W:V1.0R" for the version 1 model. Apart from the USB 3.0 port, TrendNet claims other improvements for Version 2: http://www.trendnet.com/press/releases/view.asp?id=2673
