Thank you! That makes sense now. If I switch the Asus into AP mode, do I plug in an ethernet cable from the G3100 to the Asus WAN port? Or does it go into a LAN port? Thanks!

Hi, I have a Fios Quantum G3100 and ASUS RT-AX88u. I gave my ASUS a static IP of 192.168.1.2 and the Fios Router is 192.168.1.1. I have the Ethernet cable from my ONT going to the WAN ASUS port. Then I have another ethernet cable from a LAN port on the ASUS that goes to the WAN port on...

Oh I see now. That's odd because I never updated this router since I bought it. It came with that version 9.0.0.4 installed. I bought it new from Best Buy. Thanks!

Ok thank you, do you think I should contact ASUS about this? It seems odd that my router is selecting to stay on an older beta version rather a newer official version. Thanks again!

Hi, I have an ASUS RT-AC86U wireless router that I bought last year. I've noticed that my router does not seem to want to update to the latest firmware. When I login to my router via my Windows 10 machine, and I goto the Administration section and click 'Check Update' it says: The router is...

Thanks, do you mean do this inside the Asus router?

Thanks! I did see that thread when searching for a solution, but sadly it did not help me in my current situation. I do have the latest ASUS firmware, Pulse client, and version of Windows 10. Thanks again!

I am not sure, I would have to connect to it I think? I am pretty sure it's different Ok the XB7 is using 10.0.0.1 while the new ASUS uses 192.168.50.1

Brand new AC86U in Wireless Router Mode Xfinity Gigabit XB7 in Bridge mode ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING works great EXCEPT when I connect to my work VPN. My work uses Pulse Secure VPN client. It worked perfectly fine with my XB7. But it does not work at all on my new ASUS. I tried two different...

My old one is turned off and I have the 86u set for ‘n’

Oh sorry! :) My bandwidth is 80. I will disable those two options and retry. Just curious, do you think I should return this AC86 and get the AX86? I wonder if that would help with my iPhone and iPads that support WiFi 6? Thanks!

Hi, it is from the Speed Test app that I have been using regularly for a year or so to measure internet speeds at home. With my Xfinity-provided XB7 wireless router, I had been getting average speeds that clocked in around 625Mbps over WiFi 5GHz. Now with the new ASUS AC86U, I haven't been...

Do you think I should return the AC86U and get the newer AX86U? I ask because 4 of my wifi devices are new iPhones which can use WiFi 6. thanks

Hi everyone, after months of research, I finally bit the bullet and bought a brand new ASUS AC86U to replace my Xfinity-provided XB7 router. My Xfinity plan is 1 gigabit down and 50mbps up. I absolutely love the GUI interface of this ASUS router and I love how many settings can be adjusted...

Hello everyone, I have been looking for a new router for a few months now to replace my Comcast Xfinity-provided XB7. I have Xfinity 1 gigabit service and FiOS TV. I want to get a new Router because I'm geeky and love to fiddle. I also want to use Pi-Hole. Everything on the Xfinity provided...
