    Adaptive QOS, have I set it wrong or am I expecting too much of it?

    I have managed to fix my issue and I shall now explain the steps I carried out. I switched to Merlin 384.5 as I remember FQ_Codel on the Adaptive QOS page was far better for BufferBloat (A/A+ grade vs B/C on stock firmware on the DSL reports speed test) this improved things slightly but still...

    Adaptive QOS, have I set it wrong or am I expecting too much of it?

    Hi all I have an RT-AC68U router which has the latest 3.0.0.4.384_21140 firmware on it, my internet connection connects at around 56Mb down with around 10-11Mb upload. I have been using the Adaptive QOS but it doesn't seem to do the job I am expecting, my expectations are either too high or I...

    RT-AC68U latest official firmware slow wifi-lan transfer rate

    Ahh crap I didn’t notice the other thread so mods sorry for the duplicate. I am glad I’m not the only one having this issue, and that ASUS already have a beta firmware that fixes this which hopefully means the next release should fix this issue. Personally I don’t transfer huge amounts to my...

    RT-AC68U latest official firmware slow wifi-lan transfer rate

    Hi all I have an RT-AC68U that I like to keep updated on the latest firmware, however the last 2 official firmware builds has caused the transfer rate from my MyCloud NAS (GigE) to my laptop (AC wifi 866Mb/s) to drop significantly. On previous firmware builds I consistently got 60MB/s and on...

    RT-AC68U Version 3.0.0.4.384.10007

    This firmware so far works so much better than the 382 releases, I had loads of issues with them. This release gives me all the features of the 382 but with none of the issues so far. I did a stress test after updating (Multiple torrents, a transfer from the routers USB 3 port, a transfer from...

    [Official Release] AiMesh Firmware v3.0.0.4.384.10007 for All Supported Products

    Far better than the 382 firmwares for the 68U, this gives me all the features of the 382 but with none of the bugs I suffered. Touch wood so far this is a good release.

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    Dropped back to 380.7743 as the router experienced random slow downs whereby my 60Mb connection would slow right down to 30Mb for no reason with one core at 90% useage. I've also noticed RAM usage is half what it was previously.

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    I did an Archive.org torrent download the other day which ground my router to a halt for everything else which was odd as it wasnt using my full speed but the CPU did hit 80% on both cores, now i never had this issue before so i wonder if new firmware is to blame too.

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    I'm sticking with the new firmware for now even with its faults as the new AI protect is awesome, so far I've had 5 two way IPS blocked and 50 malicious sites blocked (these were mostly spam served via ads on an iPhone app the wife uses) it probably did this before but its cool being able to see...

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    Plug in holding the reset button until power light flashes, once this is done connect a computer via ethernet and configure the ip address manually give your device 192.168.1.2 and the router/gateway ip is 192.168.1.1 and then in your browser navigate to 192.168.1.1 and you should see the CFE...

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    Boot into recovery mode and reset the NVRAM and reupload the firmware from there that will completely default everything. Now I had an old config file that I used to restore my settings and it was working perfect again. You can also set up as if new again. Back to 75MB/s to the NAS over wifi...

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    Yeah it will, or you can lock the router to a specific channel, mine is locked to 100 at the moment as that was where it spent most of its time before anyway.

    Source Code AC68U 3.0.0.4.382.18547 Available

    382_18881 is still buggy as hell, I am close to dropping back to 380_7743. So far to get 382_18881 to be as stable as 380_7743 I've had to lock the router to channel 100 otherwise the Auto channel jumps between channels each reboot and drops to 20Mhz wide channels rather than 80Mhz. Roaming...

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    By any chance do you manually set the wireless channel? As I found the only way to get it to use 80Mhz channels post update is to force it to stick to one channel. Prior to update if I used auto most of the time it would hover around channel 100 with 80Mhz width but post update it couldn’t...

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    Hi my router updated today to the new 3.0.0.4.382.18547 firmware version, however this firmware caused the 5Ghz wifi to drop back to 20Mhz wide channels causing the devices to connect to the router at 1/4 of the speed as before. I tried factory restore and recovery mode NVRAM reset and...

    Asus RT-AC87U - Intel 7265/8265 5GHz Freezing.

    Well I've spoken to Asus today and they have said its likely a HW issue and have suggested returning it to retailer as its only 3 months old, so returning it for a refund and have ordered a RT-AC68U as I really like the AsusWRT software and the Netgear I was looking at likely wouldn't work with...

    Asus RT-AC87U - Intel 7265/8265 5GHz Freezing.

    Don’t see any turbo option in advanced driver settings there is a throughput booster which is disabled by default but I’ve already tried that.

    Asus RT-AC87U - Intel 7265/8265 5GHz Freezing.

    Ahh I did think it might be a windows issue as my wife’s work laptop runs win7 with a 8260 and has no issues, however the issue is still present when I boot a Ubuntu live USB I did the test to rule out windows being the problem.
