[Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.59 Beta 2 is available

After I made a change to a client's name in the clients status pane the Internet drops off, the only way to get sky fibre back up is to apply the settings on the WAN page (option 61 was still in the field)

Hi Merlin, here you go...

Thanks, that gives me a concrete test case to try again to reproduce it. I suspect the issue lies in the code I wrote that migrates from the old dhcpc_options into the new wan0_clientid (which is what Asus uses). I didn't see anything wrong when I looked at that code, but I'll re-try again with the exact pre-reboot values you have.

Fixed clientid migration.

I seem to have an issue with my rt-ac87u.
Whenever I enable guest wifi network for 5GHz I seem to lose the ability to choose what channel I'd like for 5GHz.
I can select channel 48/80MHz, but when wifi reinitializes it seems to scan channels and end up on channel 112. Only when I select 20MHz I'm able to keep my selected channel.
When I disable the guest wifi, change the preferred channel again, it seems to stick to the one I want.

Even if I set 5GHz channel to auto without DFS it still chooses a DFS channel...

I've tried with a factory reset. I only changed the wifi settings and the same problem occurs.
Any ideas?

That warning has been there for years, and is normal.

@Merlin, Is 59 going final soon or will you wait till 2697 goes final for Asus ? Not sure how that works..

It was supposed to be released last weekend, but that last minute report on clientid issues delayed the release.

I'm not waiting on any new release from Asus, as by now it would introduce too many changes, and would require another complete development cycle. 380.59 is staying on 2697.

Excellent so i assume the final is coming soon. This firmware works very good on my 3100.
