Asus firmware page

I just updated my router, and it appears they fixed the IPv6 issue I was having before. Previously when I enabled IPv6 the router would basically lock up after a few minutes. Seems to be all good now.

Hoping that wraps up all the issues that I was personally experiencing

Edited about an hour late to add:
I might've spoken too soon. Previously routing would stop and router would become unstable within 5 minutes with IPv6 enabled. After this update all seemed well with IPv6 enabled, but after ~30 minutes of uptime I had the same issue. All routing stopped, and router became unstable.

Disabling IPv6 now, hoping it's at least still related to that. I didn't have SSH or Telnet enabled at the time so I couldn't log into the router to see what was going on, but I did note that the status page seemed to indicate that 1 of the CPUs was being maxed out constantly during this issue. Sometimes the CPU being maxed out would change.

@maxnl, Do they have WireGuard Client or Server support on Asus AX-55U?

@newsera The model I have is RT-AX55, it does not have a U at the end of the model number on the sticker or in the UI. I am not certain if there's a difference in models, but on my unit WireGuard is not an option.

I'm only seeing the following VPN options for both client and server on the router:

• PPTP
• OpenVPN
• IPSec

Go to Advanced_WireguardClient_Content.asp on your router and it's there, I don't know why it isn't visible in the menus

I don't know why it isn't visible in the menus

Because WireGuard is not available on any 386 base firmware.

It's strange how so much broken stuff is included in these firmwares and then they downgrade the storage instead of debloating :/

This is one of the cheapest AX-class routers often under $100. Don't expect much firmware development for it.

I meant the ASUS routers in general though

2 fw releases 2021, 3 fw releases 2022, 3 fw releases 2023 (to date)... Not bad... Quite a bit more than much more expensive models from the same manufacturer. (I've 3 of them)

i upgraded the firmware but the router kept restarting. Finally i had to manually roll back to the previous version (RT-AX55_3.0.0.4_386_51948) and atleast the auto-restart is not happening anymore.
