    ASUS ZenWifi AX XT8 Setup

    Do you use the HDhomrun with cable card? Everything else works but it doesn't seem capable of streaming live tv without dropping out. It is very weird that I have this issue. No issues with the orbi so I returned it. Tried everything including resetting the nvidia shield. Even tried different...

    The Asus ZenWiFi AX XT8 is a POS, right?

    I bought one recently and returned it. My Orbi RB50 does a much better job. I was really disappointed.

    Asus ZenWifi AX RT8 slow WiFi upload speeds

    DId you solve this? I also have the same issue and the other thread does not have a solution. I get the same download and upload with the Orbi RBK50.

    ASUS ZenWifi AX XT8 Setup

    I fiddled with every setting possible even used some settings I saw posted in one of the threads. Changed settings on the Nvidia Shield but got the same results. It also disconnects when connected to the main router. I also notice the upload speed is about half what it is on my orbi when I...

    ASUS ZenWifi AX XT8 Setup

    The router loses connection to my hdhomerun every single time. I switched to the orbi and had no issues so the issue is the router. It looks like the issue is related to the Nvidia SHield. I playback fine from my PC so there is something not compatible with nvidia shield 2020.

    ASUS ZenWifi AX XT8 Setup

    Spoke too soon. When my NVIDIA Shield connects to the node, my live TV stream is constantly interrupted.

    ASUS ZenWifi AX XT8 Setup

    I just got this router yesterday and I was about to return it because when watching TV, it kept dropping the signal. I downgraded the router as others suggested, and now it works fine. A bit disappointing that you need to downgrade the firmware to get a properly working product, but I am...

    Are Orbi Wireless Systems Still Unstable?

    I just picked up the RBK50 for 250 and it is excellent. Speed is twice the amount I get with the Asus RT-AC87 . Signal is excellent all over the home. I don't like the auto update but I guess I can live with it. It seems reckless for them to even have such a feature and it doesn't even wait...

    Should I enable beamforming?

    I have the asus 87U and would like to improve performance on this router. Should I enable Beamforming, Universal Beamforming and Multi-User Mimo?

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    Wireless AC has now failed on the replacement and I didn't even use port 1. It took just 2 months to fail. This router is a joke.

    [Beta] RT-AC68U/87U/3200 9.0.0.4_380_2295-g1423616 Beta for checking bug in Network Map

    I don't know. It has the same version number so I assumed it is the same.

    [Beta] RT-AC68U/87U/3200 9.0.0.4_380_2295-g1423616 Beta for checking bug in Network Map

    This firmware came out a long time go. It is on the support page for the AC87U

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    There is no option to unregister but I guess you have to create another ddns or something like that.

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    Finally received the replacement and they sent a used router. I tried to register a DDNS and but the router is already registered to someone else and I cannot use the same DDNS that I used before.

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    Asus warranty support is terrible. First I had to pay to ship it back to them compared to other companies that pay the shipping like my $50 headphones from sennheiser and HP. Then they ship the replacement back to you using the slowest method possible taking a whole week to get here. If they...

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    I am pretty sure RT-AC87U was discontinued. Best Buy no longer stocks them.

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    I am going to get another router and sell this one once I receive it back from Asus. DO you recommend the RT-AC68P?

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    I wish I knew this before I bought it. The reviews were really good.

    5GHZ network not turning on RT-AC87U

    The replacement has the same chip? They should upgrade the model if it is the same chip. The model has since been discontinued. Asus warranty is very poor imo. I have to pay for shipping.
