    The Beta firmware that MarkSW has posted is the same one I have been running now for 9+ days. On the Guest Network settings, there is an option for days to be enabled and also a radio button for unlimited. (unlimited days) Alexa link does not appear to be working yet. I do not have one but...

    I don't see how OPEN NAT would be possible since the GT-AC5300 has both firewall and implementation of WTFAST which is a VPN route to best servers option. Currently this is only supported on the PC games but is supposed to eventually include the consoles. BTW, Playstation still needs to...

    tech960, Most likely you ran into one of the many bugs in the code. In the log of the router, even on the production release, I was seeing errors. Things like it calling for program or datafile not found over and over. Great way to crash a OS based device is to send the CPU broken code...

    I know RMerlin stated he was not going to support code per all the changes this router brings to ASUS. Was posted here.. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rog-rapture-gt-ac5300.38092/ At least no plans for it currently. As for the chips, comparison here...

    Hello DarkSarrow, currently the production release (3.0.0.4.382.12184) which is from June 9, 2017 seems to break many of the features of this router. The beta code appears to re-enable those features to work. Currently I would consider this router a BETA test for ASUS. There seems to be...

    Understand the possible issues with coming from the same IP to the game server. I have seen that before on lower end routers from other vendors. My previous ASUS, the RT-AC68U did not have any issue with both of us in the same game. Please note though that it can depend on the server to and...

    My son plays different games than I do. Never looked at the router other than I know we have different internal IP addresses. I did note we occasionally drop a packet which will drop my session about once ever 6 hours of playing. So, yes it is better but could be improved. The QOS is...

    Yes e38BimmerFN, the code released back in June broke my router being able to use most of the "features". It was crippled, hence I went to a beta code listed above. The China website has not let on any new releases however a little bird has been watching our thread and dropped the rumor...

    So I tried a test. Transferring 320MB (6 CDs) from my synology to my HP over an Intel AC7265 with the latest drivers from Intel loaded. Per the Windows WiFi usage it got up to 101 Mbps before running out of files. Per the Synology LAN monitor it got up to 100MB output. I tried again with...

    I never measured the speeds before per the QOS being turned on would simply not pass the traffic. I had to basically cripple all the features of the router in order to use it with production code out sine June. If you can provide a link to the test you want me to run, I can. I have a...

    Review on beta code 9.0.0.4.382_15475 The family has played now for 48+ hours on couple PS4's (mine and my sons) along with the family of laptops, tablets and other streaming web devices. I have only seen a few drops during gaming. On the average about once in 4 hours which is still pretty...

    So that beta code appears to be much more what I would have expected from ASUS. Still working. A slightly newer version has surfaced however I have yet to find the forum link for it. I have been reading the various pages in China Forum and happened upon this one about next ASUS ROG router...

    So I loaded up the China Beta GT-AC5300_9.0.0.4_382_15431-g7834041 late yesterday afternoon and did some heavy gaming over the last 12+ hours via the PS4 and tablets. With all the gaming QOS and features finally turned on, the router only dropped one session on the PS4. Much better than what...
