    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    Update: I flashed the latest version of the firmware that Asus had on their site. This, by itself, didn't appear to fix the issue. Then I started playing with the 5GHz setting. I set the channel bandwidth from 20/40/80 MHz to 20 MHz. I also changed the control channel from AUTO to 36. I...

    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    I'm looking for the 5GHz radio right after my resets, so it is on default settings. I double checked just now, SSID is set to broadcast and the SSID is ASUS_5G.

    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    Three WPS button resets, spaced more than an hour apart, and the situation with the 5 GHz radio remains unchanged. :-(. The router web page says it's on but it doesn't show up in site surveys done from other devices.

    The UI also has a reset to factory button.

    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    Which method of resetting the router to factory are you suggesting? I've used two so far.

    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    I'm not setting the channels manually. I've left it on auto. I will try your suggestions.

    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    Any suggestions for kick starting this device? Perhaps something more heavy handed than a factory reset? Perhaps installing the newest Asus firmware might do something. Otherwise I'm out of ideas. Unless perhaps the radio has gone bad.

    RT-AC66 Guest Network Problem

    Do you have an HDMI extension? With that you could try repositioning the fire stick out from behind the TV. That may help.

    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    I should add that yesterday I also tried resetting the AC66U using the unplug and hold the WPS button method. No change in behavior for the 5 GHz radio. The web UI, the light on the device, those things all indicate that the radio is on. Using the mobile app, it also says the radio is...

    *ISSUE FOUND* RT-AC66U - 5 Ghz radio not working on 380.65_4

    Background: I have a RT-AC3200 running 380.65_2 and I had a RT-AC66U running 380.65_2 on the other end of the house running in AP mode. The AC66U was configured with the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz radios using the same SSID names as the AC3200 for their respective bands. This was working...

    WAN port remap to LAN?

    RT-AC66U, 380.65_2 running in AP mode Is it possible to remap the WAN port to function as just another LAN port?

    *Hopefully* Couple easy questions

    Thank you for the tips. I played around with OpenVPN a while back, got it working, never used it, so I shut it off. Sounds like that adventure is probably coming back to annoy me.

    Harm my router? Surely you jest. No?

    *Hopefully* Couple easy questions

    Asus RT-AC3200 running 380.65 I'm running a pretty basic config I think. No VPN server, no custom scripts, Smart Control is turned off on all three radios. As advanced as I get is a small handful of reserved IP addresses, a DDNS entry, IPv6 is turned on (Comcast is my ISP), and 4 port...

    Asus AC3200 Lock ups.

    I've had three lock-ups in the past week [emoji24]. They all seemed to occur during heavier than usual WAN usage periods.

    Asus AC3200 Lock ups.

    All Asus offered was the advice to reset the router to factory defaults. I didn't have the patience to go back and forth with them. Anyway, I changed ISPs from Frontier FIOS with an Actiontec router in bridge mode in front of the Asus to Comcast. It's been about 3 weeks and no lock-ups...

    Asus AC3200 Lock ups.

    That's not a bad idea, except that I'd be out of a router for 2-3 weeks during the RMA process. Unless Asus offers advance replacement. Kinda doubt it though.

    Asus AC3200 Lock ups.

    Have you seen any other threads discussing this issue? I'm almost ready to sell this router, so far it's been the worst I've ever owned.
