    RT-BE88u Latency Measurements

    I ran 100 pings twice: Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 5ms, Average = 2ms Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 8ms, Average = 2ms This is with Wi-Fi 6 on an AX211 on 5GHz/160MHz from 20ft away. I am lucky to have low congestion in my area, but even still I'm impressed with these numbers. Asus claims this router...

    RT-BE88u Latency Measurements

    I was concerned about this too before I bought mine but bought it anyway. With a basic speedtest I routinely get 4ms ping with W-Fi 6 devices, 3ms with Wi-Fi 7 devices, and 0.8ms wired, regardless of original stock firmware, recent official firmware, or merlin.

    No I don't

    RT-BE88U won't connect to smart devices

    That's what I've been doing, all of these issues persisted on my IoT 2.4GHz-only network. Of everything I tried, only disabling Wi-Fi 7 seems to have partially fixed the issue. Though I can't rule out some of my other changes helped. Now that everything is connected I was able to turn Wi-Fi 7...

    RT-BE88U won't connect to smart devices

    This(mostly) fixed it btw. Not sure how I forgot to try this while I was turning settings on and off. Google Nest Minis connected as normal this way, and so did smart bulbs. Half of my smart plugs connected too but the other half still wouldn't connect until I put them in broadcast mode where...

    RT-BE88U won't connect to smart devices

    That's probably one of the few things I haven't tried. Will try tonight

    RT-BE88U won't connect to smart devices

    Thanks I'll try that. I factory reset my devices though so I'd think they shouldn't care about the subnet? I'm in the US. My devices have been factory reset and will connect to a factory reset TP-link, but will not connect to my factory reset RT-BE88U

    Nobody has this issue or has advice?

    GT-BE 98 Pro MLO

    Not yet but I will this weekend. If both our Intel devices have low download speeds and your Qualcomm device has high download speeds, It must be an issue with the BE200. Hopefully a software issue that will get fixed soon. I still think it's using the lower band for download and higher band for...

    RT-BE88U won't connect to smart devices

    Anyone else have this issue? 2 Google Nest Minis plus a bunch of 2.4GHz smart lights and plugs of various brands I connect to using Smart Life on Android. They all connect perfectly to my old TP-Link router. On my new RT-BE88U they will not connect no matter what I do. A couple of them have...

    GT-BE 98 Pro MLO

    Weird because I'm having the same issue on my Intel be200. I'll have to run some more tests

    Is firmware reinstallation in recovery mode deeper than on the web interface?

    If you're worried about malware, factory reset using your preferred method, update firmware or reinstall, factory reset again.

    GT-BE 98 Pro MLO

    Awesome, what changed do you think? Last I saw you were still struggling with download speeds

    Wifi 7 pointless

    To me that's still looking like the bug is using lower bands for download and higher for upload. That looks suspiciously like 2.4GHz/up 5 or 6GHz down

    Wifi 7 pointless

    Seems like you ruled out the Intel driver by using the Qualcomm device, and ruled out Windows by using Linux. That just leaves the router. The weird thing is that some sites have reviewed and tested MLO on these routers with the exact same firmware as us and gotten much higher speeds, and...

    Release ASUS GT-BE98 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36852 - 2024/10/04

    What is MLO Fronthaul?

    Wifi 7 NICs questions

    I didn't know this. So say my 4x4 router and 2x2 laptop support MU-MIMO, but my 2x2 phone does not, then there is zero benefit to my router being 4x4 in this situation?(aside from better SNR with 4x4 routers) Having trouble finding if the Pixel 8 or Pixel 9 support MU-MIMO. My RT-BE88U has it...

    Wifi 7 pointless

    Intel released a new Windows 11 Wi-Fi driver October 1st, and Windows 11 24H2 came out the same day officially it seems. Are you able to test now with both of those? I will try to test later. Interesting they both released on the same day, maybe some important fixes.

    Anyone knows about this?

    If you're willing to wait a couple months, the RT-BE92U will be tri-band and much much cheaper. No word yet on future Merlin support though.

    Wifi 7 pointless

    Yes. It appears under the Wireless/MLO section and under Guest Network Pro. I'm guessing once everything is ironed out in the future it might not be this way? Maybe the main SSID will be MLO-enabled one day.
