    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    I could not get this problem solved, tried many different FW incl. Merlin's FW. This WE I was able to swap both my AC87 for Netgear R7500 and guess what, all my problems are gone. No more storms of packets on the LAN, no more IP cams disconnecting from the recorder and SONOS works again like a...

    Asus RT-AC87R/U - FACTORY F/W Bug Thread

    I will try out once more without connecting any iDevices, NEST or SonoS, only Nexus 7 2012. But reading the two different forums most people running the AC87 in AP mode seem to have the packet storm issue. Do you also have an AC87 in AP mode or only in "normal" mode? Someone having the very...

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    Really, for years? When this problem occurs on my AC87 in AP mode my LAN goes completly down. Do you mean customers have been living with this issue for years? I'm already fed up after a few weeks! I hope to change my routers for a Netgear next week, due to the NY period the RMA service is...

    ISSUE with multiple RT-AC87x as APs

    I just received an answer from ASUS support: The message in combination with the problem that you notice with the RT-AC87U indicates a problem that is known. This problem would occur less when no product/switch is attached to LAN 1. Currently our R&D department is investigating this...

    ISSUE with multiple RT-AC87x as APs

    Disappointed by Asus. I've disabled both WLAN networks during the night, no more problems. Now I have an expensive switch. Will try the latest stable Merlin I could find, RT-AC87U_3.0.0.4_376.48_1. If this doesn't help the routers go back to the shop. Are companies really thinking we all...

    ISSUE with multiple RT-AC87x as APs

    Hello, I'm new here. I've bought two 87U, one as my router/DHCP/FireWall/no WIFI and the second one as an AP. I seem to be running into the same problems as you are having, network gets flooded and my IP cams can't transport the images to my NAS anymore. My cameras get disconnected about once...
