ASUS AC87u 5Ghz, Samsung Devices Batterydrain?

[MacIT]

Hi,

I just bought a Asus AC87u router, but when i connect my Samsung Galaxy S4 and Tab S 2 with the 5 Ghz WiFi. The battery of my devices are draining. My iphone works wel with 5Ghz.

Is there a way to fix this?

Asus haven't released the GPL for later than 378.9313 for many routers, so quite likely this Quantenna specific patch not in merlin releases.
