ASUS firmware will change the verification method

[RMerlin]

Hi R Merlin May I say Thank you for everyones awesome work.
and in response to your reply how do I do that? do I wait for the update or can i go ahead now? I'm very new to networks, but very slowly trying to learn things by playing and resetting. Any help would be awesome thanks

380.61 beta is compatible with the new validation system. You can also flash older builds by using the firmware recovery mode (which still works for the time being).

Still in beta since, 03/28/2016, ASUS RT-AC87R Firmware version 9.0.0.4.380.2695?

Simple. Just use AC87U to download the firmware. They are the same:
STOP ASKING! RT-AC87U & RT-AC87R are twins

That's simply the title of the thread he was linking (as people kept asking that question last year when Tim created the thread with that title). It wasn't targeted at you.

I did not ask if they were the same, just asked if one of them was still in beta.

 

[fax]

yes, as you can see from the download page there was never an officially released 2695. They jumped directly to 3459.
