    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Its entirely possible dd-wrt is more stable because 1: it doesnt have the amp turned up so high for the radios and 2: no nat acceleration

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    I wonder what the real default TX power is for this router

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.50 Beta 2 is out

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    What if you schedule a reboot every night? Does that seem to work? I'm really pissed that asus half baked this thing, especially for what we paid for it. Its funny that once they get it perfect, if ever, it will probably cost half what we put down for it. :mad:

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    So there are new builds out but our directory is empty.. :confused: ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2015/02-02-2015-r26125/asus-rt-ac87u/

    Yep that port works fine

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    I run a laptop cooler on mine, but those are normal for a non active cooled chipset. 90's are when you have to worry.

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Works great. Do not use the latest build, use the one linked in the first post. The latest build breaks 5ghz for some reason. If you like to tweek, this firmware is for you! Damn stable too.

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    im getting those faster speeds too, good call! Wonder what speeds we are supposed to get once they figure out the software.

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Yes, use that one.

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Thanks, am I correct in assuming the wps button works to clear the nvram if you hold it down? What kind of speeds are you getting out of your 5ghz radio?

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    absolutely stability is important. I was just making sure it wasnt my settings. I'd like to see the 5ghz use full speed, but im guessing everyone is trying to figure out the driver situation for this qualcomm chip

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Dfran What connection speeds are you seeing on the 5ghz when you go to status/wireless and then look at the bottom. I'm only seeing 300 to 450 even on AC devices. Same? Shouldnt we be seeing higher transfer rates? I'm using a macbook pro 2014 that supports wireless ac.

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Another question, what is the best way to update the firmware to another build? I know the 30/30/30, but does that apply to this router? Im basically holding down the wps button until it starts flashing, then reboot, install the firmware and log in and go to reset factory defaults again, even...

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Yep I have 80mghz setup and that changes, however the radio buttons for 5ghz to use beamforming dont seem to stay after you save and apply settings.

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Yeah, no hurry at all. I appreciate the help. I'm new to dd-wrt but it has a ton of nice features vs stock asus. Is there a spot that I can look to see what they change on various builds?

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Nope, no light as well!

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Thanks for reporting. I'll hold off until you see 5ghz come back up. Your sacrifice was not in vain :)
  19. spinkick

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Cant seem to turn on explicit beamforming for the 5ghz range. Bug, or are they just not using the new drivers for that chip yet? Cant pick the channel i want to use as well for 5gz

    dd-wrt for RT-AC87R

    Thanks, just flashed the beta build today, I'll test later. Anyone else try it yet?
