    I switched both routers multiple times just to be sure, and ran the same games with the same settings.:rolleyes:

    Oh hell yeah, I'm loving my Synology RT2600AC, and my Netgear Nighthawk S8000 8-port Gaming Switch . I have not looked back at the Asus ROG Rapture ever since. In Battlefield 1 with the ROG Rapture my ping was between 38-41, but with the Synology RT2600AC my ping is now 17-20.

    I gave up, and returned my final Rapture for a full refund. I'm done beta testing these duds. Now I'm looking at the SYNOLOGY RT2600ac, and the Netgear X10 R9000.

    I had issues with Asus motherboards, and a few of their monitors. Asus knows how to make the best looking stuff with features everyone wants, but their quality control is practically nonexistent.

    And this one. Thank you for your response and patience, my name is Gerald N. I hope you are having a wonderful day and I'm sorry we were not able to resolve your problem about firmware bug on the previous email. I'm sorry but there's no estimated time at this moment, but when if there's an...

    Disabling the Gameboost & QOS is the only thing that can stop the constant disconnects that worked for me with all the previous ROG Raptures I've been through too until the 5Ghz 1st radio dies after about a few days, or more. It's always the same exact problems I've been dealing with ever since...

    Will these settings work with the 5GHz too?

    Does the Kong version of DD-WRT really improves on the performance of the X10 R9000 over the ROG Rapture? I just ordered the TP-LINK Talon AD7200, and just for kicks I went out, and grabbed another ROG Rapture (number 14) since it's the holiday weekend. If I'm not happy with the TP-Link I'm just...

    Dealing with Asus customer service is like trying to teach a rock to flip.

    I had to try it a couple of times before it actually worked for each of the older firmware, but did you set the router to restoration mode by unplugging the router, and then you press & hold the reset button while holding the reset button plug the router back in then wait for about 10 to 15...

    That's good to know. Thanks for the advice.

    I already tried all that before with routers 2-6, and nothing worked. You would have to force the firmware with the ASUS Firmware Restoration tool. https://www.asus.com/us/Networking/ROG-Rapture-GT-AC5300/HelpDesk_Download/

    Right now I'm debating between the TP-LINK Talon AD7200, and the SYNOLOGY RT2600ac.

    I knew it was too good to be true now my 13th ROG Rapture GT-AC5300 is beginning to disconnect too. I think I'm going to return this router for good this time, and just get the Netgear R9000 X10 too. I tried to email Asus, and as usual no response. I also still have the Asus AC87U, and that...

    So far number 13 has been stable for about 2 days (knocks on wood too), and as long as I do not enable Game Boost, or QOS I do not get any disconnects wired, or wireless. Mine is #9564.

    I think I finally hit the Asus router lottery with number 13. While I was out picking up the 4k steelbook version of Logan, I decided to give the ROG Rapture GT-AC5300 two more tries, and so far the 5 ghz radio signals did not degrade, or start to act wonky. I still ran that new setup that I...

    Well, this one just bit the dust. The 5 ghz radio labeled 1 started to lose signal strength, and now it's completely dead, but one good thing though is that I never had a disconnect while using the wired connections. I don't know if I want to try number 11. I think I'm just going to abandon the...

    That's good to hear. I'm glad to help. Before I tried that setup I had exchanged the Rapture 10 times (3 was DOA, 2 had dead radios, and the other 5 had the constant reboot issue) thinking it was a bad batch that was manufactured. So, now since this setup works for you too that means it's...
