    AX86U dead (no power)

    My AX86U died around May last year whilst watching the Champions League final, same problem the unit failed to power on. Asus agreed it was dead and Amazon issued a full refund without argument, I replaced it with the Pro model.

    Does it make sense to have AiProtection enabled?

    The best defence is common sense, at home and work I I follow a simple policy of defence in depth, enabling AiProtectionPro is simple and has very little over head and may well protect you from that one attack you didn’t spot, to me makes sense to enable it and see how it performs for you.

    Does AiProtection really work?

    How do the updates for AIProtection work, on occasion I've had to check for updates manually as it doesn't always refresh, or maybe it works on some other schedule? And what do they contain, my understanding was that the router takes the DNS query and sends it to TrendMicro for analysis or does...

    RT-AX86U Pro, Smart Connect, Pin Device to Band.

    I have a AX86U Pro configured with Smart Connect, is it possible to pin certain devices to specific bands (5G, 2.4G) to stop them potentially being shunted between the two, or is the only way to turn off Smart Connect and configure each band individually? Thanks in advance.

    Asus Router app, Account Binding.

    Yes, I also noticed that WAN access was enabled along with the app, I also turned it off. Otherwise I’m still to work out the benefit of it, it doesn’t replace the standard router logIn or link It to a cloud account, so why have it.

    Asus Router app, Account Binding.

    I’ve been taking a look at the Asus Router app for iOS and one of things it allows you to do is to bind your Google account (in my case) to my router, but I can’t seem to find any explanation as to what it does, does anyone have any info?

    Release ASUS RT-AX86U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.46061 (2022/01/11)

    A supply chain attack would be my biggest fear with any sort of auto firmware update, I know you were only joking but I seem to recall Asus were caught out with something like this a few years back with updates to their Live Update software.

    AX86U, Kindle won't connect to 2.4GHz/WPA2.

    Thanks for the replies, I tried adjusting the settings @OzarkEdge suggested as well as changing the SSID to a alphanumeric string but no change. I ended up doing a hard reset and set the wireless up using a new SSID/PSK and enabling Smart Connect, everything working fine now. Still not sure...

    AX86U, Kindle won't connect to 2.4GHz/WPA2.

    I've just purchased the AX86U to replace my 68U which has served me well for many years, but I'm struggling to get my Kindle (7th gen) and Sony Android TV to connect to the 2.4GHz channel using WPA2. 2.4/WPA2 is working on an older iPad, a low end Galaxy and my laptop but I can't seem to get the...
