Release AX88U Pro Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_33340 (2024/11/12)

[Dedel66]

A firmware check via GUI showed that 3.0.0.6.102_33340-g5c167ca_345-gf3514 is available. But it is not yet available on the ASUS website.
Unfortunately I don't have time to test it in detail, but at first glance everything works.

So far so good working from home for the last few hours.

Another observation after installing the last two releases 33338 and then this 33340 to fix the 33338 webUI corruption...

I noticed my 5.0 wireless backhaul turn ON in the Wireless Log (AX; NSS 4 between two 4-stream nodes) despite having a working MoCA wired backhaul. Toggling Ethernet Backhaul Mode ON and then OFF clears this wireless backhaul connection from the log. I'm left wondering why installing the firmware (without and subsequently with a Hard Reset) turns ON the wireless backhaul, and if it would have turned OFF in due time without my intervention. This 'wireless backhaul turning ON' issue did not present with previous firmware upgrades.

Does anyone have i) Ethernet Backhaul Mode disabled to permit wireless backhaul failover; ii) a stable, working wired backhaul; AND iii) a wireless backhaul connection listed in the Wireless Log when it should not be ON? If so, does toggling EBM clear this wireless backhaul entry from the log?

Are you using the 2.5 GB ports for Ethernet backhaul? I have had the 2.5 GB backhaul fail between my AX86U Pro and AX86U node. Switched /o a 1 GB port and it is stable.

Yes, using the 2.5GbE ports with MoCA2.5 between Pro models... have not noticed this link having any trouble... it is still the reported AiMesh backhaul while the wireless backhaul is errantly ON in the log.

I upgraded this morning using the manual upload process. It went smoothly. All seems to be working well, including AI nodes. the only glitch I see so far is the Trend Micro signature 2.430 failed to update.
The last update is reported Nov 8, 2024 14:07.
I expect that will work itself out. Rebooting the router did not help, nor did turning off and back on AI Protection.

I would not worry about the updates... they come when they come.
