    ASUS RT-AC88U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.380.3941

    In the 2.4Ghz settings I've noticed the "b/g protection" check box is ticked, don't remember if I had this enabled in previous firmware. Small problem I've noticed is if I untick it and click apply the page shows it is enabled again. Not sure if this is a UI issue or it's not actually being...

    ASUS RT-AC88U Firmware 3.0.0.4.380.3341

    Fairly certain as mentioned that's just saying they have implemented the regulatory change which means only official or supported firmwares can be run on the router. I don't believe this has anything to do with configuration, I would generally only perform a default restore if I run into issues...

    ASUS RT-AC88U Firmware 3.0.0.4.380.3341

    Working OK for me, didn't do a factory reset and no issues so far. Having said that the previous beta release was rock solid on the AC88U too....

    ASUS RT-AC87U 3.0.0.4_378_7369 Official Beta Firmware

    Looks like they pulled the previous beta release (7177) from the website too, so there must have been an issue with it...

    rt-ac series Routers

    I think the issue is more to do with manufacturers rushing to have the first product out that is 802.11ac capable. As such hardware is fine, but the software / drivers / firmware needs much more work. This is happening even with enterprise wireless products, first to market seems to get...

    rt-ac series Routers

    I think the problems have more to do with beta or rather undeveloped firmware to be honest. From a design perspective the components will all have a maximum operating range, I doubt they would get close to this. Part of the design of the case would have involved environmental testing, so it...

    ASUS RT-AC68U/AC87U 3.0.0.4_378_7177 Official Beta Firmware

    What's the significance of [For Japan Only] Is it only for specific models or can it be used on any device?

    ASUS RT-AC68U/AC87U 3.0.0.4_378_7177 Official Beta Firmware

    So WPS remains enabled on 5Ghz when you reboot right? How are you finding 5Ghz connectivity on this release?

    DDWRT r27506 - released 7-9

    My setup is basically identical, and yes I performed the same resets. Two issues basically: a) Wireless devices seem to prefer connecting to the 2.4Ghz radio, you can see this in the wireless status page. b) Unable to set the 5Ghz channel in this firmware which is annoying I found the...

    ASUS RT-AC87U Frequent 5GHz Disconnects - Solution Found

    I haven't seen anything that would point to heat related issues, just a lot of talk on these forums that the chips in this device run hot. Which is fine as far as I am concerned if they are running with the manufacturer specifications. Unless someone can prove me otherwise... I haven't seen...

    DDWRT r27506 - released 7-9

    Seems about the same to me. Took a little while to re-familiarise myself with dd-wrt, but after a short period I'm still seeing 5Ghz issues. It does appear however that my devices seem to prefer the 2.4Ghz radio on this firmware... It's a nice firmware, but I think there's still issues with...

    DDWRT r27506 - released 7-9

    Excellent news I will try this tonight. Can you just simply flash the firmware file? Did you do a hard reset with the WPS button after the flash? Assuming you can simply just flash back the original Asus image or Merlin to go back...

    RT-AC87U_3.0.0.4_378_7010 - Unofficial Beta firmware

    Yeah it's really annoying actually. For some reason seems to be the worst on my iPhone 5S, the iPhone 6 and iPad 2 seem to work without any issues. Don't see this problem on any other devices so I'm assuming it's Apple specific. Interesting to note though a reboot seems to make things much...

    RT-AC87U_3.0.0.4_378_7010 - Unofficial Beta firmware

    After a couple of days my iPhone 5S appears to be having issues again on the 5Ghz radio... Have disabled 802.11ac beamforming to see if this helps, will report back. How is everyone else finding this release?

    RT-AC87U_3.0.0.4_378_7010 - Unofficial Beta firmware

    Right thanks fax. Interesting point to note is that I was having some really weird issues on a couple of iPhones which I thought was related to wireless bugs people have been mentioning in here. However I've managed to fix this by disabling NAT acceleration on my device. I will monitor over...

    RT-AC87U_3.0.0.4_378_7010 - Unofficial Beta firmware

    How can you tell that WPS is on for 5GHz? When I look in the UI, I can only see 2.4Ghz and if I click the "Switch Frequency" button nothing happens...
