[Alex31]

Hello,

I installed 376-49_5 on my router the thing i have is random disconnect on wifi
So i want to install te last firmware 378.56_2
I did a factory reset then i load the new firmware ok so far so good the router went back online and still i have the old firmware, i did reboot the router and still the old firmware?
Hope someone could help me please.......

You need to install 378.50 first (I think that's the one, not really sure), then latest.

Actually you should install 378.55 first and after that install newer ones.
You cannot upgrade directly due to fact, that Asus has changed partition layout meanwhile by resizing rootfs.

It will upgrade bootloader as well, after that you can upgrade to the latest.

Thanks Guys,
That was the trick
But i did not do a factory default after flashing to 55......
I flashed the latest firmware directly after that, then i reboot and everything works fine so it seems

Have you cleared cache or tried a different browser?

Strange, you could also try the firmware recovery tool.

Recent Asus firmware changed the Firmware update page, due to AiMesh. You have to use the "upload" link next to your router model on that page.
