ASUS RT-AX88U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.384.8018

[Mister10B]

Version 3.0.0.4.384.8018 is out since 2020/03/27
Any one any experience. I have / had several WAN isues, (with ATEMODE=0).

Hope some can share experience with latest firmware?
QoS does not interest me (AX is fast enough to support my enitre familiy with 20+ devices running and 2 adulst in CoVid2 Home office modus) neither is Game Mode.
Looking for 3. Bug fix:
- Fixed wan detection bugs
- Improved some connection issues.

Thx!

PS. Edit currently running 384.16_0

Same here using 384.16_0 and my WAN sometime say it's disconnected. but traffic still passes, but very slow.

I have an ax88u on 8018, 8018 fixes the disconnect issue and is quote stable.

Anyone noticing a slow upload speed ?

 

[brianmsailing]

Yes.

 

[brianmsailing]

About 200

I thought my isp is playing games so i hocked up ac88 and got the full upload speed . Ax88 gets less than half [emoji3061]

It appears on this firmware we have traded upload speed, but gained stability.

I have since updated to 384.17 on merlin and it seems to have stopped dropping the WAN

Yeah i have noticed the stability improvement but the upload sucks.
One more thing is that if you disable “802.11ax / Wi-Fi 6 mode” and reboot the router it will resort back to enable.

Thanks for reporting. In the mean time I choose to go with 384.17. After dirty flash, router came up with red WAN LED, but I left it for 2 minutes and it re-connected automatically. Sofar no issues, keep you posted on stability.
