    I am using an ASUS RT-AC5300 running ASUS-Merlin v386.5. My ISP recently upgraded my service from 400Mbps down/10Mpbs up to 600Mbps down/20Mbps up.

    Diagnosing frequent dropouts

    Short version: Am noticing my internet connection drop out roughly every 4 hours, fairly consistently, but nothing obvious is popping out as a cause. ISP doesn't register every dropout, nor does the modem, suggesting that not all situations where the router detects no internet are actually no...

    Hey all! How does the Dedicated Wireless Backhaul work when combining a dual band and tri-band router? Does the dual band router stop providing 5GHz wifi connection to devices OR does the dual band router not provide a 5GHz wifi backhaul to the other AiMesh nodes? I have an AiMesh setup with...

    Possible RT-AC5300 performance degradation

    I'm struggling to find the root cause of home network issues that keep plaguing me ever increasingly. Not 100% sure but I think it was roughly around the time I went from stock to Merlin firmware in Jun 2020 that my issues began to arise. Also over this time I've gradually added a few more...
