I had look at that I meant in the final firmware.386.1 Alpha?
Noticed that there is an alpha 2 of 386.1 but no download is available?www.snbforums.com
The latest changelog may have changed, but as of 13 days ago:
asuswrt-merlin.ng/Changelog-NG.txt at master · RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng
Third party firmware for Asus routers (newer codebase) - RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.nggithub.com
Well not RT-AC87U, it was nightmare to deal with it.Goodbye... RT-AC56U, RT-AC87U and RT-AC3200. You will be missed.

Consider yourself lucky few, it really got bad reputation for 5 ghzI have the AC87U. It was good to me after a bunch of firmware updates I'm still using it ....
Wasn’t the 56U already dropped (by ASUS) long time ago?Goodbye... RT-AC56U, RT-AC87U and RT-AC3200. You will be missed.
That depends. Johns fork still supports it by porting over fixes for it and keeping updates similar to merlins. The only down side going that route is johns fork does not support the more advanced trend micro and adaptive qos, but some users would contend that those are not necessarily deal breakers. Asus has end of life their support though. The problem is the 56u,87u,and ac 3200 are on 382 code base so it is no longer realistic or feasible for Rmerlin to bandage the code base just to carry on making firmware for those models.Wasn’t the 56U already dropped (by ASUS) long time ago?
Haven't been seeing much talk about 386.1 Alpha having issues
can a beta or even release be far off at this point?

Every piece of equipment reaches end-of-support eventually; 3-5 yrs is actually quite a good run, considering "they" want most of us to upgrad
The plus side, since asus moves at the speed of snail, it ensures you have time to take care of small details you have been wanting to get out of the way. The down side is testing and production is on the back burner. I think the pro's out weight the con's. We patiently await the future of Asuswrt-Merlin.That's because there are no alpha releases yet, and also because only four models are currently compilable on the new code base.
Not anytime soon. Until Asus's own firmware code comes out of beta (which won't happen for weeks), mine won't even reach beta stage.

The kernel is very old.
It's an LTS kernel.
It's still better than the 2.6.18 kernel.
