    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.22068

    It's working for me now, but I only have 1 device which can take advantage of it. Connecting it shows it is connected at 160Mhz while the rest of my devices including my iphone 14 Pro Max only show at 80Mhz.

    Asus rt-ax86u 5ghz band crashing with new firmware when downloading

    So is the 386.5_2 a Merlin firmware?

    Asus rt-ax86u 5ghz band crashing with new firmware when downloading

    Like everyone else my AX86U and AX86S don't seem to be playing nice with 388. My 5GHZ band drops periodically (though admittedly less since resetting), no 160MHZ, and my connection speeds with my ISP are much lower than previous routers (Verizon Gigabyte). I'm assuming 386.5_2 will help at...

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21709

    Initially I had numerous 5GHZ drops, I don't want to jinx myself but over the last couple of days things seem to be relatively solid. I am noticing a lag or delay with devices like my TV and Xbox connecting to the Wifi when first booting up. Is there a setting or recommendation (beside running...

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21709

    I’m not going to rule it out, but didn’t have this issue with previous router. I understand however that each router is different and one may be more sensitive than another

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21709

    Installed the new firmware about 2 hours ago, since then 5Ghz has dropped 3 times. Not a good start for me

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21709

    Anyone experience issues with the 5GHZ band dropping? Hoping this release will fix that for me.

    5GHz WiFi issues on RT-AX86U latest stock FW

    I've been seeing similar issues, never had this with my Alien Router.

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.20566

    I can see every morning at 3:00 a.m. my router reboots as scheduled, and as you stated the date in the logs changes until it comes back up and re-attaches to an NTP server. Those are the only actual reboots I see. Now I do see a string of errors and what seems to indicate the router restarts...

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.20566

    Since installing this firmware my router seems to reboot or drop the 5ghz channel multiple times a day. I don't know if its rebooting or just dropping the channel as most times when I notice it I'm on wifi. It seems to go down for a few minutes then comes back up. I am running AIMesh with 1...

    Repeater/extender for AX86U - seeking recommendations

    I opted for an AX86U as my primary and an AX86S as my AIMesh Node. My understanding is the nodes don't do as much processing so don't really need the extra CPU and Memory of the 86U, but use the same Firmware.

    How to verify wifi connection type on Dual Band routers

    Sorry if this is a stupid question, I haven't used a Dual band router for some time now, and the way I configured my Tri-band routers I always new if I was connecting to the 5GHZ AC band or the 5GHZ AX and. Now all my devices that connect to the 5 GHZ band simply report as 5GHZ. is there any...

    AX-92U extremely low upload speed

    There have been others with the same issue on various ASUS routers. I saw one post where they reconfigured USB from 3.0 to 2.0 even though they didn't have anything plugged in to them and that fixed the upload speed issue. Didn't work for me but its easy enough to try if its still not working...

    AX86U and AT&T 1 gig upload speed problem

    Never Mind, I found it under Administration>System>USB settings. Set USB mode to USB2.0, the router rebooted after clicking apply, but unfortunately at least using the built in speed tester, I still have the same issue. Depending on the testing location I get anywhere from 400 - 750 MBS down...

    AX86U and AT&T 1 gig upload speed problem

    I'm having a similar issue with my X86U & S and would like to try the USB mode change, but don't see any options in the Firmware to do this. I am using the Asus official Firmware ending in 49599. Do I need to switch to Merlin to see this option

    RT-AX86S Setup and Troubleshooting

    I went to my local brick and mortar to pick up the RT-AX86U to replace my failed Alien router. Unfortunately, the only model they had in stock turned out to be the AX86S so with having done no research on this device I picked it up. I have Verizon FIOS Gigabit and should be seeing between 800...

    Yet another help me decide on a router thread

    About 2 years ago now I picked up the Amplifi Alien, and to be honest it's probably been the best router I've ever owned. No the firmware isn't flashy but its been fast and stable for 2 years. Unfortunately for me the wifi 6 channels (both the AX and 2.4) appear to have died. The Web gui and...
