    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    At least they leave the RT-AC68U behind with rock solid firmware.

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    As I said, no harm. Firmware 3.0.0.4.386_51668 seems to be "too good" with an uninterrupted uptime of 97 days of both the RT-AC68U Router and the RT-AC1900U Media Bridge. I can't recall the close to 100 days was reached with older firmware versions without the need for a reboot other then after...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    No harm, only an observation: RAM usage is still slowly increasing, see updated post #14.

    RT-AC68U with really BIG USB disk

    My Router / USB storage experiences go from RT-N66U to now the RT-AC68U. At first I used a cheap USB stick, that worked quite well, but the Health Scanner often found things to repair. Since two years I have a Kingston 32 GB USB stick in the USB 2.0 port of my RT-AC68U and that works very well...

    RT-AC68U intermittently won't connect to https://box2219.bluehost.com/

    Only "OK" will not change anything. You might go back to the DNS settings and select "Google" followed by "OK" and test this for some time:

    Release ASUS RT-AC66U B1 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30)

    On top of the last reply: a firmware backup file shall ONLY be restored to exact the same firmware branch and version as it was made from. You better do not restore the backup from a trouble router. Manual configuration of a router at factory defaults makes sure you make a clean start, write...

    RT-AC68U can't upgrade firmware

    Is this a genuine RT-AC68U, not a TM-AC1900U ? What do you mean with the "software center"? Asuswrt-Merlin Stock firmware

    Release ASUS RT-AC66U B1 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30)

    I performed dirty upgrades from 51665 to 51668 on my RT-AC68U Router and RT-AC1900U Media Bridge, both are stable as a rock 73 days now after the upgrade. I suggest to revert to factory defaults and manual configure the router again.

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    The asd fault disappeared completely with firmware 51668, my RT-AC68U showed the asd error a few times with firmware 51665 (see here). With firmware 51665 and before the media bridge crashed a few times (say once a month). My RT-AC68U router and RT-AC1900U media bridge do run 68 days now after...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    I am not using that, but tried to add a table entry: can give input and use the + to bring my input one line down, after Apply and the few seconds action spinner, the table reverted as empty, system log reports the firewall is restarted. is there a SSH command to see if there really is no...

    How do I check the performance of my router? [RT-AC68U]

    I started with similar wireless settings in the RT-AX86U-Pro like the RT-AC68U, then experimented with various other settings including factory defaults with only the required changes and finally gave up. I loved the RT-AX86U-Pro for the form factor, very similar to the RT-AC68U so I could place...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    A quite high overall load, which doesn't need to be a problem, watch out for too many peaks close to 100%.

    How do I check the performance of my router? [RT-AC68U]

    I agree: don't change a winning team. We have a RT-AC68U, a 75 / 75 Mbps Internet subscription and laptops with 802.11ac network adapters, it all works smooth. To tried to keep pace and replaced the router by a RT-AX86U-Pro, this degraded my home network performance and refused to properly...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    You now show one snapshot, what does the graph looks like after it filled the page? I think usually both Cores shall swing around the same load percentage, with now and then a peak on either core load.

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51668 (2023/11/30 )

    Stable as a rock here after the dirty upgrade from 51665 to 51668 which was 48 days ago, no reboots or crashes since then, also the Media Bridge is stable as a rock: See post #14 for the slowly increasing memory usage, compared to above today's snapshot with the router almost idling. My...

    Frequent disconnects

    Maybe also tell us the router firmware version. And confirm you already tried a hard reset of the router followed by manual configuration (no restore of an old configuration file).
