    Brand new AC88u 2.4Ghz not working

    CyHawk, it only takes a few minutes to test the new firmware. Myself, I'd be curious, but in reality it won't fix the problem. Did you ask for a "pre-replacement unit"? This will insure that you get a physically different unit. My advanced replacement was a brand new unit with a very recent...

    Brand new AC88u 2.4Ghz not working

    Latest update in the saga.... I got the advanced replacement from Asus yesterday; two days early as FedEx Ground stated that it was due Monday the 27th. Albeit still a week late as Asus stated that they were shipping it overnight delivery. As you can read that didn't happen. I open the box and...

    Brand new AC88u 2.4Ghz not working

    Well that didn't take long. 10 minutes after the unit was connected as the home office main router, the 2.4GHz radio started dropping connections.

    Brand new AC88u 2.4Ghz not working

    I ordered one of these AC88U from Amazon as a refurbished unit (it's a A5 hardware). I had the AC87U which I bought when it first came out and it was flaky. However, everything seemed to get ironed out with firmware upgrades from Asus. I ran the stock firmware from new and it was a great trouble...

    RT-AC87U 3.0.0.4.378_4608 Unofficial Beta Firmware

    New here - jumping in head first..... Thought I would measure in. I've bought the AC87 about five months ago. Have always had the lag. I think it is worse on this release. Local TWC issues made my wife beat me until I conceded to work on it. I replaced my SB6141 with a new SB6183 - no...

    RT-AC87U 3.0.0.4.378_4608 Unofficial Beta Firmware

    What version of DD-WRT is everyone referring to? The RT-87 is not listed in the DD-WRT database. I found it here. Is this what everyone is using? ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2014/11-11-2014-r25309/asus-rt-ac87u/
