Hi, this project is really great, thanks for everyone that has participated in making it both fun to use and excellent.
RT-AC68U HW A2 quirk in media bridge mode.
GUI shows 5GHz when connected to 2.4GHz, frequent pauses and long ping times.
Solution:
I had some time and worked backwards through firmware updates:
386.3_2 (anything after this firmware is problematic on my router)
It reports the correct frequency that I manually connected to. Connected to 2.4GHz, GUI shows 2.4GHz. Improved steady connection and ping times.
Hope this helps someone.
Of note, considering to try the ASUSWRT-MERLIN 374 LTS to see if that is equally stable, and also have the updates associated with this.
