    [Official] RT-AC87U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.378.9460

    Netgear has a beta firmware (R7500) risolving the battery drain and connection issues. Users review seems so far very positive. Probably ASUS is still testing in-house with the new Quantenna SDK. Just wild guess.

    [Official] RT-AC87U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.378.9460

    You will then be very surprised buying other router's brands and their abandoning policy for routers of similar age than this one ;)

    [Firmware Bugs] RT-AC87u Firmware 3.0.0.4.378-9383

    No packet loss whatsoever here pinging 192.168.1.1. Sounds like an issue with the network card driver? Have you tried another system on the same LAN not using the same hardware?

    AiProtection Alert Mails

    If you have 2FA activated on gmail you certainly need an app password to have gmail working with third party mail related applications. Otherwise you just need gmail set to accept POP connections.

    [Official] RT-AC87U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.378.9313

    FYI, it is already the second time the router becomes totally unresponsive and need to be manually turned OFF/ON. See enclosed the router few logs before the problem and then logs up to when it is rebooted and again fully functional.

    [Official] RT-AC87U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.378.9177

    VPN support explained it as an issue of the ISP not allowing using their DNS for VPN rather than a router problem. But I cannot judge if this is a sound technical explanation.

    [Official] RT-AC87U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.378.9177

    You mean OpenVPN "Client" + using .ovpn files? If positive, then yes. At least I have to do so here to be able to effectively use the VPN connection.

    [Beta] RT-AC87U 9.0.0.4.378.9110

    You put them once... Leave them or turn ON/OFF. Not a major issue here. As soon as Merlin will update the firmware I will switch. For the moment I prefer to be on this latest firmware.

    Malicious Site Blocking, Vulnerability Protection, etc.

    My experience on 0day malicious sites is that TM is blocking far more sites than OpenDNS. Your test site is not really a good reference to test TM effectiveness as TM simply do not recognise wicar.org as a malware spreading site. You have to try with real ones such the malc0de database or...

    RT-AC87U Idle Latency and AiProtection, Speeds

    I am glad to hear it works well for you too! :) The protection layer provided is not far from those expensive solutions (hardware/software) normally present only in enterprise environments. See also a discussion here...

    [Beta] RT-AC87U 9.0.0.4.378.9110

    For your information and for other users facing the same problem; I have been troubleshooting the issue with ASUS support and the solution was to set in the router a different DNS than my ISP (e.g. OpenDNS). Now the connection works flawlessly. Note: I am testing this with the official 9177...

    RT-AC87U Idle Latency and AiProtection, Speeds

    Here I have no impact whatsover with all AiProtection options turned ON. Don't be obsessed by numbers, what it counts is the experience using it. Great feature and unique to ASUS routers, would be a waste not taking advantage of it. Been testing it on many 0day sites spreading malware and it is...
