Asus rt-ac68u 5g dropping out on mobile devices

Hi,

i've been having a problem with my rt-ac68u router, tried stock firmware and merlin both with the same results. It happens quite regular, drops all of a sudden and comes back up within five or ten minutes. i have no idea whats causing it.

I've uploaded the code as a text file because when i tried to put it in the message it said that it was too long.

Did you do a full reset to factory defaults after flashing the firmware you want to use/test? Followed by a minimal and manual configuration to secure the router and connect to your ISP?

Doing the steps in the links above will put your router and network devices into a known/good state. Trying to troubleshoot the issue(s) without the above having been performed is wasting your time and ours.

Go to LAN/DHCP/IP Pool Starting Address 192.168.1.100 IP Pool ending Address 192.168.1.254
if you use DHCP and static IP addresses and your pool is 1-254 it will create conflicts.
Make sure that you change the IP pool
