    Lately I've been thinking about this very question but would like to hear from you guys as to which unit you would buy if forced to do so today and why. I know that whatever I would buy must have 8 ports and dual wan. I would also be looking for 2.5gb ports on the wan and lan with future...

    My parents sent their 1.5 year old RT-AC88U in for warranty repair and......got a new one in return

    Now you would expect to hear about a lengthy repair time and lack of spare parts...all of which are true. However, Asus said that the repair was completed and returned a router to them. Well I say a router because it wasn't the repaired broken unit that they sent them rather it was a brand new...

    RT-AC88U issue; I can put it into recovery mode but I cannot access it

    Gentlemen I am here to consult with your wisdom on this matter.

    My RT-AC88U bombed on Cloudflare DNS servers today - SOLVED

    I've never had this happen before but my router suddenly dropped the wan connection today and no matter what I did short of a reset would get it to reconnect to the ISP. Once I reset it and let it reboot going through the automatic setup procedure it would connect to the net. If I tried to...

    Okay, so I've thrown my RT-AC88U into recovery mode

    I am frustrated with this router dumping IPv6 right in the middle of while we're trying to do things so I've attempted to roll back the firmware to the original version. I put it into recovery mode and successful uploaded the original 858 using the rescue utility which completed and said to...

    I did what Asus tech support asked and reinstalled 7266 on my RT-AC88U and this is what happened

    I lost my IPv6 connection to Comcast just like I did in the beginning on the very first day I unboxed this router and it advertised the newer firmware. Right after it finished flashing I logged back into the UI and lo and behold I no longer had an IPv6 address assignment. I immediately...
