802.11ac Wireless Dual Band Routers - Buck - 10-02-2013

Why the big price difference between ASUS and DLink?

Is ASUS 3x better?

I found this link - http://www.tomshardware.com/news/asus-wireless-ac-router-beamforming-600mbps,24426.html

I'm really not sure without reading an in depth review of both routers.

That model D Link from MicroCenter only has fast ethernet (100 Mbps) ports, not Gigabit ethernet ports.
Sort of defeats the .11ac wireless speeds.
