Release ASUS RT-AX88U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.42819

How far do you go, before you start seeing these effects.

Wifi Anaylzer shows approx 3m~.

The only thing that seperates me from router is 1 concrete wall.

Concrete wall is responsible for your problem, 5 ghz signal have much harder time passing through concrete wall. A single wall will reduce signal strength by 25 to 30 dbm for 5 ghz, less signal = less speed.

I upgraded to 3.0.0.4.386_42819, and hard reset everything and re-setup manually. It is up for 1 Day 20 hour. All looks normal, but Dual wan load balancing seems not working properly.

This is my setup:
Main router: AX88U 3.0.0.4.386_42819
AiMesh node: AX92U 9.0.0.4.386_41994 Ethernet backdual
WAN1 in WAN port: 120Mbps Cable from one company (the best I can get from my area )
WAN2 in LAN1 port: 50Mbps ASL from another company

It did not load balance to WAN2 after some time. I directly connected to WAN2 modem and confirmed WAN2 can go to Internet. It was good in earlier version AX88U 9.0.0.4.386_41994

Historically speaking, Dual WAN has never worked so far and will NEVER work in future. That is due to sheer incompetence from Asus Firmware team.

You have to get something like QNAP QHora-301W
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08MQT9ZCX/?tag=snbforums-20

The issue with QHora is that it is so new and firmware is still missing IPv6. But my friend states that Load Balancing is working on that very well.

After few days of tryings, the WiFI speeds are defiantly lower.
I do not intend to reset everything because of them.

Revert back and hopefully next FW will be better.
Cheers

Dirty upgrade over 42095 3 hours ago and so far all is well.

What do they mean by Fix WAN connection issues? Did they finally fix PPPOe unreliability problem along with it?

I would also like to know details about what was fixed in regards to the WAN connection issue.

 

[Wisiwyg]

Likewise, I'd like more details on the AI Mesh fixes. Is Guest 1 now usable over AI Mesh?

 

[neil0311]

So you are saying I won't be able to get 1Gbps over Wifi 6 ever ?

I do as a matter of normal use. My WiFi 6 devices use the 5 GHz band which is set to 160 MHz. I get >940Mbps routinely.

Read the previous page!

I manage to config. it and it's working now.

After running for 2-3 days, it is getting stable, and works like previous version.

In generally, I think Dual-wan load balancing in ASUSWRT is Ok. It supports my basic use cases.

I just flashed to this version and will report back if anything weird happens.
