    ASUS Firmware update privacy policy?

    There are several privacy policy pages on the ASUS website and I think this may be the correct link https://www.asus.com/terms_of_use_notice_privacy_policy/privacy_policy

    Release ASUS GT-AX6000 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_34791

    No problem here, just did one on iOS app for a router 1,700km away, seamless.

    BE98 Hardware Ver

    If the non-Pro version (i.e. GT-BE98) is not sold in the US, then it may not go through FCC?

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    Not sure. Some people got their non-Pro in 2023 already, the H/W Ver. 2.0 also mentions manufacturing year 2024, so it could be that those manufactured in 2023 have a different H/W Ver.

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    Is there any practical difference in hardware version 2.0 manufactured in 2024 compared to the earlier release? This is the GT-BE98 i.e. the non-pro version.

    BE96u Firmware update error message.

    Yes, happens from time to time. May be due to maintenance or unplanned service disruption on the Asus side. Suggest you try again after several hours or next day, that always worked for me in the past. Alternatively, manually download the firmware from the specific router support website.

    Yup, manual (post corrected). 'Menus' inside the manual.

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    FYI ... Asus has now made available the full user manual for the BE98 Pro here https://rog.asus.com/networking/rog-rapture-gt-be98-pro/helpdesk_manual/. Not available yet for the BE98 but should be very similar apart from the number of 6Ghz bands.

    What Routers support AiProtection Pro?

    You can check the 'Tech Specs' tabs on the respective router product pages. A sample check reveals mentioning of "AiProtection Pro" for GT-AX6000, GT-AXE16000 and GT-BE98 Pro, for example. In the router config settings it is simply called 'AiProtection', at least looking at the GT-AXE16000 config.

    Regulatory vs technical considerations WiFi 7 and 6GHz band
