    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta (stage 2) is now available

    Hi, this is to report success this time with 386.1 b4b on my rt-ax88u. Now I get no transfer speed drops even with AIProtection switched on, moreover AIProtection does now count events successfully with this version (it did not since last summer in my machine) as proved by accessing 'wicar.org'...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta (stage 2) is now available

    MTU is correctly set in my case (1492). In yours.. did you accept the trendmicro privacy statement ? (i.e are you using QoS, Web History, Apps Analysys or AiProtection?) If yes, then please confirm that you are measuring speeds from within a wifi client (not from the admin GUI) and you can still...

    If / when you withdraw the privacy statement all the functions that require it are switched off automatically.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta (stage 2) is now available

    Then this is why you do not see the drops. Known fact that somehow the trendmicro related code is causing it. If you use wb history, apps analysis, QoS or AIProtection then the problem appears.. you have to switch off all these functions AND withdraw the security terms (in...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta (stage 2) is now available

    Hi, it is not the WAN internet speed, but wifi client speeds that drop down. For instance test going directly to speedtest.net from a within a wifi client and your transfer speeds will be slow even if the 'internet speed' test from the router admin gui shows normal speeds.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta (stage 2) is now available

    Hi, I confirm the reduced speeds problem with b4 and my rt-ax88u. Moreover, I am unable to reflash back beta3. I have tried unmounting USB drives, resetting the router to factory defalults, ... and any attempt to reflash the router from within b4 fails, (I suppose with the asus firmware...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta (stage 2) is now available

    Hi, just dirty installed b4 over b3 in my x88U main router and aimesh node x56u. My observations : - There is still some confusion in network map clients list with some clients still being listed that are in fact no longer connected to the network. These are listed with wired interface when...

    Aimesh Test with RT-AX88U and RT-AX56U ( 386.1_beta3 )

    Hi, I have my setup configured with fixed channels and no Smart Connect. With this setup clients roam seamlessly from the node to the main router and backwards without problems. I prefer to decide by myself when to connect to 5Ghz or 2.4Ghz bands, and also to have fixed channel because then all...

    Aimesh Test with RT-AX88U and RT-AX56U ( 386.1_beta3 )

    Hi. This is exactly my configuration too, both the ax88 and the ax56 running 386.1 beta3 merlin in Aimesh quite flawlessly and snappy. I have around 25 family devices including PCs, Phones, pads, printers, consoles, IoT devices,.. and running iptv, samba, dlna, diversion, ovpn with clients...

Moreover, you have generated through the years a community of fans and enthusiasts around here that will follow and use your work...

    Question with Ai mesh

    Hi, in theory by switching on the 'ethernet backhaul mode' that you can find in AiMesh->Systems settings page the wifi bands dedicated to backhaul are freed for user usage. I Don't know if this option is available in your specific firmware version however, but at least in 386/merlin firmwares it...

    ASUS AiMesh setup success! RT-AX88U & 8 RT-AX92U AiMesh nodes with 120 IoT devices in house

    Whao!, and I was proud of my router (ax88)+node (ax56) aimesh installation with 30+ clients! so you prove that I have a lot of growth margin :-) I am not sure if your picture is right, but i seems you are still running 386.1 alpha code. Note that we are already on beta3. If you happen to...

    Wired network issues (several) on RT-AX88U and beta (both 1 and 3)

    Hi, I'd first of all and because it is very easy to do in your case, switch cables between Lan1 and Lan2 so that you can rule out an external to the ax88u problem in case that the 'bad port' then appears to be then the lan2 one. Afterwards I would reset and reconfigure the x88 from scratch and...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta is now available

    Hi, flashed beta2 over beta1 in my ax88u and ax56u (mesh client). All fine until now (almost 24 hours running). Noticed that the boot delay of 10 minutes starting the wifi services in beta1 (both bands) has dissapeared and now boot is fast as expected. I will post back if any unexpected...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta is now available

    Hi, This is to report success dirty upgrading my RT-AX88U from 384.19 (which was running flawlessly for about 90+ days) to 386.1 beta. I took the plunge also and retired my RP-AC68U access point installing a RT-AX56U as an aimesh node (also running 386.1 beta). So far so good after 2 days and...

    RT-AX88U as reliable as RT-AC68U?

    I am very happy also with my AX88U already for more than a year. I have experienced some problems in the past, fixed in various firmware editions, but all in all I think it is a very robust and capable router.

    Wireless 5GHz takes 10 minutes to be ready

    Hi, It is absolutely normal. Basically the router is 'scanning' for radars before using a given 5Ghz channel, and this is mandatory by the specification. Not all channels require the 10 minute wait. some do require 10 minutes, anothers only 1 minute and others (non DFS ones) do not require...
