Looks like we are screwed. Iam running the 9856 Beta firmware right now with no problems I am just worried about security.
I see some security fixes on this version. Am I safe at 9856 or is this a mandatory upgrade for security?

Thoughts?

Took the plunge, loaded, reset manually applied all my settings. Running perfectly so far.

I Noticed that there are now 3 seperate network options in the guest network area for all the bands.

I made a loT with a hidden SSID and a normal Guest guest network on 2.4 ghz.

I noticed the ip range on the loT was different than the Guest and normal network. I like that. (192.xxx.100.xxx vs 192.xxx.50.xxx)

If Microsoft released new patches for security issues once every 9 months... Think they might get some flack? What's Asus's excuse when they have millions of routers out there... and this one costs 550 dollars..

Well I am back to report, after 1 day of operation there was a ton of problems. Streaming services could not connect (No vpn).
Numerous disconnections, 2 reboots, and my wifes iphone diconnected several times right in the middle of a call. This release is garbage.

Back on 9856 BETA everything is perfect and the internet flies. Go figure. A real dissappointment.

I upgraded yesterday and so far has been working normal. I noticed my guest IP's stayed the same, no .100 for me but I also didn't do a reset. The guest network page seems to be the same. I thought it always had the 3 individual options for all the wifi bands. Or at least the last firmware did. I could be wrong.

Working for me without issue so far!

I have 2 gt-axe16000 ... One as the main and one as a node ... After the upgrade to 24374 2 days ago the main still working fine but the node had problems immediately after the upgrade. There were no wifi signal except 2.4 band appearing and in a few seconds dissapearing again ( all other bands nothing) ... The same thing exactly had happened in the previous version 24329 ( main working fine but node with no wifi).
So I kept the main with 24374 and reverted back node to 23012 and everything seems stable for now.

Any suggestions about the node ? I mean in order to be able to update it also ...

ps. main and node are connected with ethernet ...

I gave it another shot, loaded firmware, factory reset then manually entered all my settings. Seems to be ok now. There was one unexpected drop in wireless but I think it was from Radar (airport 10 miles away). I will report back in a few days. The Beta 4856 runs great but I am afraid of the security flaws since it is 1 1/2 years old.
