You're wanting an AC device?
Not an AX device?
What are you using it for that you need access controls?You can also check on amazon for netgear renewed devices.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
Hmm...well I suspect there are no work arounds with configuration changes etc..
Looks like I either live with it (without AC and lower bandwidth), or upgrade to a another router with greater capacity etc...
BTW...your comment about QaS enable was spot on as it had the same result on lower bandwidth as AC enabled.
Turning off AC and QaS got me back to 5-600Mps after a reboot of the modem...
Can you recommend a Netgear router which might accomodate that increased bandwidth with AC and Block new divices and QaS.
Thank again...
