    asus xt8 zenwifi cuts speed of downloads by at least half with qos, without qos still 17-20%, xfinity comcast?

    For months i've noticed that my download speeds with comcast were no where near 800 (and now i have gigabit as well), always around 450 mbps or so. I assumed it was an issue with comcast and even had techs out. Today i tried something, i took the router out of the picture and connected...

    asus zen wifi xt8 wired connection + motorola mb8611 slow speeds on 1gb plan?

    actually its not fixed, though it may be more of a router issue.. the qos xt8 speed test shows 1000 mbps, but now the standard internet test is still reporting 450-500

    asus zen wifi xt8 wired connection + motorola mb8611 slow speeds on 1gb plan?

    seems after another call to support, they did something on their end which fixed the issue, at least for now

    asus zen wifi xt8 wired connection + motorola mb8611 slow speeds on 1gb plan?

    I've tested this scenario on a direct wire to my pc (2.5gbps) and i get really good performance at least for the 5 mins it was connected.. around 900-1100 mbps.. When i reconnect the zen wifi main router (2.5 gbps to modem and 2.5 gbps to pc), initially its decent around 900 mbps, then after...

    xen wifi xt8 suddenly some ports blocked or comcast?

    So far nothing i've tried will open the port. Actually its not just that port.. i have some existing other ones that are showing open.. however, if i take one of those open ones and change to say 441 or 442 tcp, and retest, it says closed. This might be a general issue suddenly with the...

    xen wifi xt8 suddenly some ports blocked or comcast?

    I have a port that was open and working fine on 44158 tcp until 4 days ago... i also noted the firmware signature updated 4 days ago (not sure what that means, i didnt update the firmware itself however). I had the port on port forwarding just fine, now if you do an external check it says...

    Interrupted connections on ZenWiFi AX (XT8)

    I still have issues even with 42095 though i didnt do a factory reset, not sure if that matters? And if it does, can you just restore settings from a newer one ontop? issues like 2.4 not going as far, and, "unable to obtain ip address" on wireless phones. Is it possible to find an even older...

    asus xt8 constant disconnects with latest few firmware?

    Thanks thats what i did.. Though i didnt do a factory reset.. can you just restore current backup if you do a reset? Not sure if not doing the reset is why, but even with 42095 my 2.4ghz range is not nearly as long as it was before. I'm thinking the firmware that worked better was before this...

    asus xt8 constant disconnects with latest few firmware?

    I have two asus xt8's, ever since the latest two updates (now at 3.0.0.4.386_45934), i experience constant disconnects over time on various devices and 2.4 doesnt reach as far as it used to. I have tried tri band mode and 5ghz smart connect (still not sure which mode is better either). Pretty...

    asus zenwifi xt8 + latest firmware + nest 3rd gen learning thermostat offline off and on?

    Update, so with my xt8 asus, a few things i did.. It was suggested to revert to a firmware from feb 2021 or previous (3.0.0.4.386.42095 or before). The 2021 feb one (42095) didnt seem to make a difference so i went with 3.0.0.4.386_41793 I dont think this was the fix. I then went into 5ghz-1...

    asus zenwifi xt8 + latest firmware + nest 3rd gen learning thermostat offline off and on?

    Well i went back as far as firmware 3.0.0.4.386_41793 i also rebooted each mesh unit. No luck, the nest still goes to offline mode. I havent tried doing a factory reset on the asus yet however.

    zenwifi xt8 wireless mesh downgrade firmware steps?

    Ok, i thought i had read somewhere (cant find), that a factory reset was needed after a downgrade and all settings manually reentered (i have quite a few settings) though?

    zenwifi xt8 wireless mesh downgrade firmware steps?

    Does anyone know the official formula for downgrading firmware with this unit? Can i simply point the local web interface to the old firmware and hit update? Or is there more to it. I cant seem to find any info. Will settings be preserved? (Or back them up and restore them?) Thanks

    asus zenwifi xt8 + latest firmware + nest 3rd gen learning thermostat offline off and on?

    Ok thanks, Is it as simple as just specifying the replacement firmware and updating or is there more involved to go backwards? Does it hold all the settings or do you have to start from scratch? I see alot of entries related to the nest like: wlceventd: wlceventd_proc_event(508): eth5...

    asus zenwifi xt8 + latest firmware + nest 3rd gen learning thermostat offline off and on?

    I have this combo of hardware and it seems ever since i did a recent firmware update, that now the nest goes to offline mode randomly. *I guess if i thought i could go back a firmware level (somehow) i'd try to go back to the last one? Has anyone else ran into this and knows of a fix? Thanks...

    AiMesh - 5ghz-2 is now dedicated backhaul after recent firmware? (wired backhaul)

    I just noticed this thread, after having posted one of my own. Got the xen wifi ct8 and backhaul is forced to 5ghz-2 as its own wifi, no triband, says dual mode so there are essentially two ssids showing up. I tried toggling the option in the phone app, but it doesnt give an apply button (to...

    Asus ct8 zenwifi dedicated backhaul set to wired but showing up as wireless?

    I've got the ct8 , two modules, the mesh unit on wired (into wan port). It shows as gig ethernet wired backhaul but the system in the web or mobile interface says wireless backhaul and dual mode is enabled not triband. So i think im losing throughput as a result. On mobile i can toggle it off...
