    My router's dying?

    So over the past couple months we have been getting disconnected from the router (ASUS RT-AC87U). No one in the house can see it in the list of available wifi. When I look at the router all the lights was working normally. I tried switching from the Merlin firmware back to the lastest ASUS...

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    I was having random slow downs, but wasn't that bad. Well after my last post I seen there was a newe DD-WRT release. So I tried updating to that and I had trouble. The router kept rebooting. Almost thought I wasn't going to be get it to stop. Ended up loading a Merlin latest. Now 5GHz is junk...

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    I think I'm going to try a DD-WRT build. Not sure what version yet. So if you have one that's rock solid let me know. I don't use any USB/Printer connections. Printer is ran off one of the Ethernet cables on the router.

    Asus locking down routers to comply with new FCC rules

    I don't remember where I seen that. I think it was something I read back when I bought the 66R. But now that I installed the newest beta 3.0.0.4.378_3562 everything has been great. Firmware installed via ASUS recovery tool and Clear NVRAM (WPS button method). Not sure that what helped or the...

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    I've had good luck with the new beta. Might be how I did the update and clear. I used the ASUS restore (static IP) software to update. Then it was all done I "Cleared the NVRAM" via turning the power off (power button) holding WPS button and power on. Keep holding WPS button until power light...

    ASUS RT-AC87 Firmware - Official Releases

    I've been using it for over 24 hrs now. Just in the wifi part I've had no problems. Seems to be much better in the range then the last two firmware updates I've tried. I did try to chance the time zone and it wouldn't let me. I haven't tried much else. I don't even have my USB drive hooked up yet.

    Asus locking down routers to comply with new FCC rules

    Thanks I'll check them out. But my original firmware said 3.0.0.4.376_1311. Also I'm reading that even going back in firmware doesn't return your signal power?

    Asus locking down routers to comply with new FCC rules

    My 87R is definitely not as powerful after updating from the original firmware. I can't even find the original firmware anywhere.

    Just got a RT-AC87R

    I just bought and setup a RT-AC87R. I had a Linksys E4200V2 that never performed like I thought it should. Last week a bought a RT-N66R, but it kept dieing. I have not updated the firmware yet. I'm going to wait and see if I have any trouble.
