    Issue with 2.4Ghz and nest / ring devices in 386.2 alpha 2

    Thanks for the input but all of the channels and ssids were consistent and I'm more than 100 yds from any neighbors - the only change was firmware version - they connected immediately I reverted back to prior alpha version.

    Issue with 2.4Ghz and nest / ring devices in 386.2 alpha 2

    See my other thread here: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/new-ax86u-node-and-iot-devices.71002/ Thought my new AX86U was causing problems with my nest / ring devices on 2.4ghz guest network 1, but it turns out it must be related to a change in 386.2 alpha 2. They wouldn't connect to my...

    New AX86U node and IOT devices

    Yup went back to 386.2_alpha1-ga84fed8777 and they reconnected to the guest network.

    New AX86U node and IOT devices

    I'm thinking this is not AX specific. I switched the AC5300 back in place instead of the AX86U and my nest / ring devices still won't connect to either the guest or main 2.4ghz ssid. My ring cams were last online on the 7th so I'm wondering if maybe alpha 2 introduced the problem. It is odd...

    New AX86U node and IOT devices

    Thanks for the response. It was disabled; set to -65 for now but from a topology point of view nothing has really changed. Switched out one router for another with the same 2.4Ghz channel, ssid and password.

    New AX86U node and IOT devices

    I am coming from a pair of AC5300 in aimesh setup hardwired backhaul; one in office space over 3 car garage where Internet connection comes in (zone 1) and one in basement for rest of house where most mobile device usage occurs (zone 2). Both latest merlin alpha 2 fw. I purchased an AX86U...

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0 (continued)

    Maybe Termius: https://termius.com/ I use it on iOS

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 is now available

    There are obviously multiple codes; my AC5300s bought in the US both say US (Q1/984) UNITED STATES

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    Spoke too soon; experienced issue again later even after moving channels.

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    Had my 5g-1 channel pinned to 36; could easily reproduce case of lost connection from iphone. Refresh a couple of web pages and then start a ping trace and after about 15-20 pings would stop responding. Moved to channel 44 and can no longer repro the issue. I just also noticed a hidden SSID...

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    More investigation; this issue affects my iphone 12 pro max but not my windows 10 laptop. Cannot reproduce with either 3.0.0.4.384.81981 or 3.0.0.4.384.82072 but as soon as I put 9.0.0.4.386.41994 on the node the problem returns so also not specific to merlin mods.

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    One other bizarre thing; I changed the SSID of the 5g-1 band yesterday and made no other changes but I just noticed my 2.4Ghz bands are reported as channel 8 in the wireless log, site survey and wifi analyzer app but 6 in the wireless settings UI.

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    Firmware was already updated; I then removed the node from the mesh via UI, then did WPS resets on both router and node, followed by UI restore to factory and jffs format, then manually reconfigured via UI. This morning I tried another device (iPad) in case it was some bizarre anomaly with...

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    I am seeing the issue on the lower 5g band. I updated the node firmware last night to current stock beta and see problem this morning again.

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    Changed SSID to a never before used name on 5g-1 and connected to router in office. Later went downstairs for lunch and experienced same problem. iPhone roamed from router in office to aimesh node in basement, had Internet access for a few minutes, then stopped. After some period of time...

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    Thanks - I had done forget network several times but I now renamed the SSID and will give it a try.

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    Thanks for the response; would you mind expanding on the theory behind SSID change ? Since the phone connects to all 5 other bands perfectly well, including the same SSID on 5g-1 on the router, why should the SSID name on the 5g-1 band on the node have any bearing ? I will try it but just...

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    Not quite; when the device first connects all is ok. Then for some random, unknown reason, it stops being able to reach other devices on the network or the internet, even if it still looks connected. If I manually disconnect it and try to reconnect I often see the "unable to connect to network"...

    ASUS RT-AC88U 5 GHz band drops some clients and does not accept new connections

    So I am seeing something similar to this on my AC5300 node. Main router is also AC5300; ethernet backhaul mode enabled. Problem has occurred over last several Merlin beta / release builds; currently both running 386.2 Alpha 1. I was using SmartConnect with both 5g bands to try and keep...
