    Firmware upgrade 388.3 to 388.4 for RT-AX88u Pro Not Taking

    Wanted to update the forum, I got the upgrade take. In the end, what worked was pretty simple. I turned off the router,,disconnected all 5 LAN cables leaving only the WAN cable, turned on the router, and upgraded the firmware over wifi with no issues. Maybe the number of switches, APs, and...

    Firmware upgrade 388.3 to 388.4 for RT-AX88u Pro Not Taking

    Thank you for this info. I agree that this router is not functioning as it should, and may indeed be unstable. Initially I was thinking that I would wait and try to upgrade to a Merlin firmware beyond 388.4 when available, but I may run into problems over time while waiting, I will make plans...

    Firmware upgrade 388.3 to 388.4 for RT-AX88u Pro Not Taking

    I arrived at this point after many failed attempts to flash 388.4 on 388.3 after following many helpful suggestions from the forum short of stock re-flash, factory reset, etc. Since other family members depend on this router, I have to pick an appropriate time to open a potential can of worms...

    Firmware upgrade 388.3 to 388.4 for RT-AX88u Pro Not Taking

    No, I have not done that yet. I am considering waiting until, and if, there is a more substantial Merlin firmware upgrade for the RT-AX88u Pro beyond 388.4, since the router is functioning perfectly well under 388.3 and I am satisfied with the features of 388.3 so far.

    Firmware upgrade 388.3 to 388.4 for RT-AX88u Pro Not Taking

    Yes, that's the firmware that won't take. I had originally gone from the stock Asus firmware to 388.3 without problem a few months ago. Browser refresh makes no difference. The firmware indicated on the router remains 388.3 following upload and reboot.

    Firmware upgrade 388.3 to 388.4 for RT-AX88u Pro Not Taking

    Before a hard reset, I would try Aiadi's suggestion. If I were to perform a reset and a successful upgrade, will my saved settings config file restore ALL my settings including reserved IPs, client names (over 100 of them), VPN settings, etc? Thanks

    Firmware upgrade 388.3 to 388.4 for RT-AX88u Pro Not Taking

    fwiw, I have had 2 different results/messages in my attempts to upgrade to 388.4: One is that the UI screen brings me back to a login screen shortly following 100% completion of the upload. The other result is that a message is displayed, following 100% completion, that says to do a manual...

    nothing in the USB port and no addons. Strange because I went from the stock ASUS firmware to 388.3 without an issue a few months ago.
