Stable version for use with Nest products?

[mugenk20z1]

I'm currently using 380.63_2 and my AC88U keeps dropping my Nest products (cameras and thermostat).

I reset the router to default before upgrading to this version as per Read-me, but noticed these issues...

-The 2.4Ghz band not visible anymore (fixed by toggling on/off in admin).

-Nest products disconnecting randomly.

-Tried rebooting, even unplugging it. Did not help.

Which version have you guys found the most stable for Nest products? Thanks in advance.

Version won't matter if there's either a compatibility issue or an interference source.

Start by disabling Turbo/NitroQAM, and also disable all beamforming options on the 2.4 GHz band (those settings should be under Wireless -> Professional). Also use a fixed channel rather than using Auto.

Wow that fixed it. Thanks!

Sucks, I just dropped $200+ on the router because I thought it could use all the nice features for my devices. Hopefully more devices can support beamforming in the future.

Beamforming on the 2.4 GHz band ain't exactly standard. Your devices on the 5 GHz band will still benefit from it.

Gotcha. Thanks again!
