    RT-AX88U Pro - Internet doesn't recover if the modem has a hiccup and reconnects.

    Your previous router was most likely fine the issue is that cable modem. I would not have bought anything until rogers either replaced the modem or you tested the router on a known connection that is without issues like at a friends house.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    This. I have a dedicated NAS on my network, the router is caching alot of data when using a USB as NAS. And as pointed out before even scripts on a usb key will increase ram usage. Unless you are running into performance issues I would leave it be the router is smart enough to manage its ram.

    Unused ram is wasted ram. This topic has been discussed about 1 million times on this forum.

    I'm on a FTTH PPPOE connection with this firmware. Are you seeing this from the speedtest in the router or using the speedtest app?

    Use the speedtest.net app from your device.

    Asus RT-AX86S spontaneously rebooting every 1-3 days

    Did you try updating to the 388.2 firmware and is it the same on that?

    Asus RT-AX88U Pro

    nice review. For me the point of upgrading would be to move up to a faster fiber connection from my ISP. Wifi performance is secondary on my network as only the phones and couple laptops use it. I will need a faster wan port than the 1Gbps port on the AX88U so i will have to move up to it...

    I'm new - router recommendations?

    AX88U was a bad device?? Excuse me? i've been using it for 4 years without issue! Currently $399 CAD which is the same price I paid for the AX88U on launch in 2018. 100% I live in Downtown Toronto.

    Asus RT-AX88U Pro

    The price for this model in CAD is very high. If it didn't look like a spider and was using the same chasis as the ax88u i would consider but the look and the price are a major turn off.
