    ASUS Zenwifi XT8 Node Losing Connection

    I'm already running the most recent official release firmware. Guess I'll look into the beta firmware, wonder what they have updated or improved with the new beta.

    ASUS Zenwifi XT8 Node Losing Connection

    Anyone experiencing an issue with the node losing connection and light turns blinking blue? Only a power reset seems to fix the node. This Started happening after the latest firmware so wondering if something in the latest release broke things? Anyone else experiencing the issue? The main...

    Disconnections When Moving Around Home

    I'm connecting to the 5Ghz band with my iPhone 11 Pro. I have the Asus Zenwifi AX Router and Node. I've noticed that when moving around the home, the phone disconnects presumably because it's trying to switch either from the router to the node or vice versa. Are there any settings i should...

    Merlin Firmware For XT8 ZenWifi?

    I tried to find answers to this but didn't find anything. Is there a compatible Merlin firmware version for the Asus Zenwifi XT8 routers and nodes? I went to the Merlin website and couldn't find any for these routers. Thanks

    ZenWifi XT8 AX Access Problem

    I have only been over 500Mbps once using the Wifi SweetSpots app. Since the latest firmware update I’m only getting anywhere from 150-200Mbps. I have separated the SSID’s and optimized the channels based on where my neighbours are. Gotta try and figure out what’s going on here. Also...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25524

    So I'm noticing that for the 5GHz connection, my devices are sometimes skipping the node which is literally within a few feet of the devices (iPhone, MacBook) and they connect to the router in the basement. This can happen for a few minutes or for a half hour to an hour. At some point it...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25524

    Do we really need to do a factor reset after every firmware update? It's just a pain in the butt to move the node close to the router again to initiate the connection between the router and the node.

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    I haven't had any disconnect issues with the Node with this latest release. However, one issue that is popping up now is either the inability to connect to the 5-1Ghz band or I'm able to connect but have very slow speeds with only 1 bar shown on the connection. I'm connected to the closest node...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    Not using any switches so that wasn’t the issue for me. since the firmware update, the node hasn’t disconnected once. Fingers crossed they fixed the issue. Time will tell.

    ZenWifi XT8 AX Access Problem

    I've been using similar tools. I use Netspot which allows me to see all of my neighbours routers, what channels they are on, signal strength etc. I found Channel 11 best for 2.4Ghz, far less congestion there. I've set 5Ghz-1 channel at 36. Now that I have the least congested channels, just...

    ZenWifi XT8 AX Access Problem

    I too have come over from the Netgear Orbi's which became almost unusable with the last few firmware update they provided. I do have a few questions: 1. How is everyone accessing 160Mhz? That doesn't seem to be available for me no matter which channel I select. 2. Is it better to isolate the...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    Reset my router/nodes with latest firmware. Going to try running it with a wireless backhaul. I have a funny suspicion these disconnect issues are happening for those using an ethernet backhaul. Going to see how things go. Still getting a boat load of entries in the log similar to the ones above...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    I just recently purchased the ZenWifi XT8 and also experiencing the same annoying disconnection problem with the Node. I have it setup for wired backhaul. I'm forced to power cycle every day sometimes twice a day for it to reconnect. I'm also noticing a bunch of these messages in the log files...
