    XT8 Packet Loss / Ping spikes

    Thanks Jason. Somehow I had fixed it previously via an older firmware. All of a sudden however the issue came back with Pingplotter giving me pretty much excatly 50% packet loss between node and router. I have then updated to the newest firmware like you suggested but that didnt help. Any other...

    ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 9.0.0.4.386.46980 (2022/02/22)

    Did you find a solution for the freezes? In the meantime I have my main router on the GNUton RMerlin firmware and the node on the beta firmware but still have these intermittent freezes that I can only avoid when reconnecting the wifi. Also checked the log but there isn't even an entry when this...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.5 GNUton's builds are now available

    Agree with Dodgydrains here. One more thing I noticed today is that the node rebooted all of a sudden. Had that with some of the earlier FW but never on 42095. I hoped that this merlin FW fixed that... Bummer.

    ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 9.0.0.4.386.46980 (2022/02/22)

    I have exactly the same issue. The only way to fix it was by setting both my XT8 into router mode. As long as I ran them in AP in an AiMesh environment the exact problems you described were there. I still do get them sometimes but less often. Now I am on the merlin firmware and it has been ok...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.5 GNUton's builds are now available

    One downside of this firmware is that if you reset router and node on an AiMesh system and start from scratch the router wont be able to detect the node and add it wirelessly. You will have to wire the node to the router to add it to the AiMesh. Other than that so far no issues. Been running it...

    XT8 does not recognise any usb storage

    Hey all, Unfortunately my XT8s which I run in mesh don’t recognise any storage usb 2.0, 3.0, 3.1 (as hard drive or usb stick) that I attach to the nodes. No matter what I do. The network map does not show anything. It simply says not connected usb 3.0. Has anyone ever come across a similar...

    XT8 Packet Loss / Ping spikes

    Hey all, I am using the Asus XT8's in a Smart Connect Mesh on Firmware 42095 for quite some time. So far I have been very happy. Recently however I am having a couple of issues with Packet Loss/Ping spikes. I noticed it while playing Rocket League. Once in a while I get a ping spike which is...

    Fritzbox 5490 exposed host or not

    Hi all, currently configuring my home wifi with two new xt8’s. I have a fiber connection 1000/1000 and a Fritzbox 5490 from my isp that does not allow for bridge mode. After reading a lot about the optimal setup I started with my xt8 in access point mode and connected over aimesh. As...

    Asus XT8 newbie questions

    Thanks for your replies. Highly welcome. Will stick to access point mode then and simply try to dedicate the backhaul or not and test performance. As for the aimesh 2.0. I read through the thread and it does not really look like any real performance gains but I might give it a shot.
