I think it would be good to mention your model of router - perhaps you may add a signature?

You are absolutely right: GT-AXE16000 386.8_alpha1_g09802d268a

Smooth update from previous 386.8 alpha1 to 386.8_alpha1-g09802d268a on RT-AX88u.
All looking good here
Thanks RMerlin

Any idea when new test builds will be coming for the rest of the models ?

It won't. 386.8 is only for these three models.

Thanks for the info.

Uptime:

IOT-decvices at 2.4 GHz Guest Network1 stable since last flashing:

Bridge stable at 5GHz since last flashing.

System Log at loglevel "error -- error" is empty.

I am going to change the loglevel to "warning -- warning"...

 

[PR3MIUM]

not a single error since yesterday showed up (just after flashing, see my older post above), very stable build

I noticed the new wireless drivers:

Wireless Driver Version wl0: Jul 13 2022 20:19:41 version 17.10.121.41 (r796515) FWID 01-271c1695

I'm happy to report that this one is stable again compared to the version used in 386.7. Well, 386.7_2 was stable too. But I got a very stable and fast 160MHz conection with a link rate of 1633/1153 (Mbps) on my computer that sits a floor (concrete and steel) above the router. Never had a connection link speed reported that high from this location.

 

[PR3MIUM]

160MHz currently on Channel 52, getting 2402/2402 (Mbps) trough a heavy wall.

Dirty upgrade from 386.7_2
Was going fine for a day.

I have OpenVpn Client 1 set up NordVpn.

I have DNSFilter Custom1 set to NordVPN
DNS which is working fine on some devices but on my Pixel 5 if I have VPN Director set to OVPN1 and DNSFilter set to Custom 1 it sometimes loses internet connection but WiFi still connected. When it does lose internet it will not come back without rebooting.

Been working with no issue on 386.7_2

 

[ugandy]

386.7_2 to alpha
no issues

 

[Spydawg]

Is this alpha for GT-AXE16000 with the 2x 10 gig ports? I see 2 of this model with and without the 2x 10 gig ports online

There's only one GT-AXE16000, double check that you aren't confusing it with the GT-AX6000.

Joining in on the Alpha fun. Slapped this on my two RT-AX88U APs. So far, so good. All devices re-connected. IOT, Nest, TP-Link etc... all seem happy.

 

[Dedel66]

After 2 days:

Systemlog set to level "warning -- warning" is CLEAR!
Everything stays connected without drops.

I´m going to set loglevel to "notice -- notice"...

 

[prosperot]

Joining in too, Rock solid on my AX88U, fast n stable Wifi. All devices connect without problems. Anything special you would like us to test?

The changelog gives us some good hints at what's changed and what can be targeted...
