    After last update of my XT8 I have lost all device names and icons in GUI. The rest is ok. Any way of recovering them?

    When is XT8 end of life?

    Asus uses to give eol different for each model. And eol doesn't mean end of updates. Mi N55U_D1 has just received a new one, after almost 8 years I bought it. Now I use a XT8 ver1, and I hope its life will be long too.

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388_24668 (2024/09/24)

    It is a powerful and popular AX router. They can't stop releasing firmwares yet. My old N55U_D1 still has updates from time to time, after almost a decade. I imagine routers have any way of "pinging home" (and auto firmware check in latest versions, for example) so ASUS know how many are still...

    Anyone tried the ExpertWifi routers yet? EBR63, EBM68

    My old N55U_D1 still has updates after 11 years https://www.asus.com/supportonly/dsl-n55u_d1/helpdesk_bios/ Most are security fixes, but for about 6 years there were improvements too. I do not understand why some devices are EOL too soon compared to others.

    Bridge with own SSID?

    Perhaps simply yo may set the main router to broadcast more wifi ssids. Most of them hav, for example, ssid for guests. If not, you may try a wifi repeater. Connects to the main wifi, and broadcasts its own one.

    Understanding Asus Movistar Triple VLAN profile settings

    Yes. And I was tempted to buy the ax3, but I think for now I'll stick with the XT8 that I've been using since it was launched. The AX2 was to replace the XT8 and then use it as a WiFi bridge for the NAS. But the experiment did not go well for me. Too cumbersome and once running the performance...

    Understanding Asus Movistar Triple VLAN profile settings

    I bought the same router and returned it because it not was as good as expected. I live in Spain too, and use Movistar.

    After 4 years, a new firm for my old loved DSL-N55U_D1

    I have the BIOS links for my routers in browser shortcuts, and today I clicked in my old DSL-N55U_D1 instead of XT8, by mistake. And I have seen there is a new firm for it after 4 years!!: https://www.asus.com/supportonly/dsl-n55u_d1/helpdesk_bios/ This was my first ASUS, and I used it for my...

    ZenWiFi AX XT8 - Performance tweaks

    I have been using a XT8 as a single router (only wifi), with almost no problems (some Samsung phones, but now are ok) and about 25 wifi devices. I think of changing it, but not sure what to buy. Any advice in an Asus router with AX known to have little problems? Thanks.

    Asus RT-AX3000 and Samsung Phones - "connected without internet" issue

    Have you tried turning off "agile multiband" as I said? It solved it for me.

    I'm sorry to answer so late. I have XT8 and 9 Kasa plugs and a camera, and 2 Tapo plugs. They always have run smoothy, so if I may help you or share settings, please answer me.

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21617 (2022/11/21)

    I have been using Asus routers for 8 years, and I have never ever done a factory reset prior or after updating firmware. I know it is an usual practice here (I do not understand why), but I have never needed it, because I do not want to enter all settings again (dhcp reservations, ports, etc.)...
