    Asus Survey ???

    I received an email this morning that is titled ASUS: RT-AX88U product survey invitation. It contains an HTML file attachment. It was sent from neweredm.com domain It looks fishy to me. Anyone else seen this?

    Release [ 384.19_Alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    I have solved my QOS problems. 1. Turn QOS off 2. Buy twice as much network capacity as needed for my two person household. If it handles two UHD 4k TV shows at the same time. everyone is happy. :rolleyes: On a serious note my RT-AX88U running Merlin Alpha 2 is spectacular. Now for a serious...

    Release [ 384.19_Alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    I tried the two sites and got the block pages. Checked the ax88 gui and there was still zero events shown. Checked back an hour or two later and the gui showed two blocks. It takes time. Does not matter to me as long as block page comes up.:) Running alpha 2 on my ax88u.

    Problems with new RT-AX88U and Merlin RT-AX88U_384.18_0

    I don't use Smart Connect and I had both updated my Intel Drivers and turned off AX Functionality with no help. I thought that I may investigate Asus Mesh with my old AC3100. Right now my coverage is good from the main router. I do have an old RT-N56U as an access point to cover my backyard...

    Problems with new RT-AX88U and Merlin RT-AX88U_384.18_0

    I was having problems with my RT-AC3100 after four years and decided to bite the bullet and purchase a new RT-AX88U. After unwrapping and plugging into modem I checked out the basics and then did a dirty update to ASUS ......9107 firmware. Ran the router for a few hours checking out everything...

    GUI Reboot vs Power off/on restart

    Tried it on my RT-AC3100. It appears to shut down. It's hard to say exactly what happens since all LED's go out except Power LED. The power LED remains lit and then the unit restarts.

    Asus Router recommendation?

    I did place an order with B&H Photo after reviewing BBB & user reviews. Order was easy. My credit card was charged almost immediately. Two days later, no shipping details. I canceled order and they credited my card quickly. I suspect that they did not have any to ship. In any case good...

    GUI Reboot vs Power off/on restart

    I guess that my mindset is a hold over from the Mainframe Computer days. An IPL reset everything. No power cycle required.

    GUI Reboot vs Power off/on restart

    I had a situation this morning where my ROKU would not connect to 5 GHz which is it's normal power up connection. It would connect to 2.4 GHz. My Laptop was still connected to 5 GHz and was working normally. Normal speed test results. So, I did a ReBoot of the Router using the GUI and...

    Asus Router recommendation?

    I have been looking at the RT-AX88U along with the RT-AC86U. I guess the decision comes down to newer technology at a price. I have been shopping the RT-AX88U and Amazon has been sold out. B&H Photo claims to have them in stock for $349. Advantage with B&H for me is a $25 sales tax savings...
