My problematic 1st RT-AC66 came with Recovery mode out of factory..
2nd one is perfect thus far

Just so we are clear. It sounds like you guys are saying that the router would randomly reboot and then enter recovery? That isn't what is happening with mine. I rebooted the router myself, and after this, it just goes into recovery mode. Pulling the usb drive didn't make a difference. It has only done it with this firmware but I can't say I've done any real testing on this. I don't get much of a chance to mess with it with a wedding coming up and long hours in the office.

That's what I meant. The random part isn't the reboot, it's how it will sometime enter Recovery Mode for some users when they reboot it, forcing them to reflash it again.

Hi Merlin, slightly off topic. Is it possible to implement 14 channels for Wireless 2.4 Ghz?

No plan to override country regulations, sorry.
