    RT-AC88U

    Well my troublesome 88 just $hit the bed completely today. Hardware went toes up. It let me perform a rescue flash and rebooted, yet never really came back up. LAN ports were dead, no UI to log into, no wifi lights, nothing. I cannot have any downtime, so I overnighted another 88 while I send...

    Fairly Bricked RT-AC88U - ideas?

    I've got an RT-AC88U with a dead 5G radio. I think I need to send her off n use my 66U during the process...

    RT-AC88U

    I'll try that next. There are quite a few folks with my exact issue posting on the ASUS forum for this router, strangely, not here. What's the proper method to do a full reset?

    RT-AC88U

    Well, this firmware's even worse with my 5G band. When I enable the 5G radio, it locks up the router, kills the 2.4 radio and I can barely get in enough to disable the 5G radio again. POS needs to be replaced. Anybody know what ASUSs turnaround time is lately? It was horrible when Ihad to ship...

    RT-AC88U

    New firmware's out. Any reports, good or bad? I haven't tested the 5G radio yet to see if it got fixed with this update.. Nothing in the release notes about 5G issues being addressed.

    RT-AC88U

    Sounds like we've got some pretty buggy firmware, as experiences are showing on the ASUS forums.. Quite a few folks with my exact issue - disappearing and/or non-existent 5G. The scheduling reboot and scheduling windows for the 5G radio didn't do a thing.

    RT-AC88U

    So you put the 5G network on a schedule to essentially 'reboot' it, daily? Might be a good idea..

    RT-AC88U

    Whenever I make a change to the 5G network and knock off all the clients, it fixes itself - the logs clear up, GUI runs fast etc. Wonder if I've got a 5G-configured device going nutso and taking out the router...

    RT-AC88U

    Well that sucks - just past my return window. How can it work and then poop out. If the radio was bad I'd think I never get any 5G performance. Also, the system log just spams these errors by the thousands (which must be slowing down the GUI) - and again after a reboot things work fine for a...

    RT-AC88U

    Hey all, after using a RTAC66U for years I upgraded to the AC88U. Better router as far as range goes, but I am having massive issues (constant through the 2 months of ownership) where my 5G network just disappears. I can either reboot the router or pick a different channel and it'll come back...
