These two routers are essentially the same, correct?

I just purchased a super cheap AC66R on Ebay thinking it was an AC66U...

Hi clanderson, I know this is a few years old, but I am wondering what kind of success you had with the "U" load on the "R"?

I also have an "R", but still do not see it listed in the router db.

Cheers!

The only thing about the last link is, <Kong> no longer supports the RT-AC66U:
