Thanks iFrogMac. I'm afraid I haven't got the luxury of owning an 86U and the 82U has only recently been replaced. Are you suggesting that I should disable wifi 6?

Hello again. Hope you're all well. I'm now back from my holiday and just to let you know that the new router is doing fine so far. No issues at all, except of course that the firmware is not the latest.

I don't know why, but I can't resist the temptation to reply - EVEN WHEN I KNOW I'VE GOT NO TIME! :p:D Looks like now the router has switched the 2.4ghz channel from 2 to 9. The 5ghz is still 52.

Good evening guys. I'm gonna be going on holiday soon, but the replacement AX82U router has arrived today. I've quickly plugged it in and the good news is that it's got so much better signal compared to the older router Already, I can go outside approx 30 metres away from the house and I can...

The SSH access procedure sounds too complex for me, so I'll give it a miss for now (unless you need me to). Regarding the firmware - I always tend to manually update it. I'm glad that we can always revert back to an older firmware should the need arise. I don't know what time the new router...

@ColinTaylor - As far as I'm aware, the only file the RT-AX82U router saves is a .cfg file - not sure about anything else. @degrub - Yes that's one way, but it's just that the RT-AX82U router has hundreds of pages and options. But I guess I can snip images of the most common pages though. When...

Right - Got Ya! Thanks for stopping me from making a mistake because I would have ended up using the current router's cfg file to apply to the new router. I was hoping though that I could save myself time in copying a lot of info from the current router, such as the devices connected, their...

Thanks degrub - I'll certainly bear that in mind.

Thanks mate. The current router's firmware is: 3.0.0.4.386_48664-g7ded0a1 I'll also make a note of the new router's firmware & out of box channels when it arrives. Would saving the new router's existing cfg file be enough to backup the settings and firmware? Much appreciate your tips.

Hello again @ColinTaylor - I just wanted to give you an update. Unfortunately the router signal has got really bad. Since you've already assisted me in narrowing down any potential issues, I can only assume that this is a hardware-related problem. In order to confirm this, I placed a...

Okay, no problem. Thanks again for your help. I'll see how things go and if problem still persists, I may have to look at getting another access point (mesh).

Thanks mate. I've followed what you've said and now said 5ghz to 48 and 2.4ghz to 11 as well as check that TX was on performance which it is. I'll see how it goes, but I do have one question which is that previously the channel bandwidth on 2.4ghz was 20/40mhz and on 5ghz it was 20/40/80mhz...

Apologies for the late reply. I'm for UK too. I did what you suggested and I kept the phone in one location with same orientation. Below are the results for 5GHz: 48 = -Between 61dBm and 63dBm @ 5.7m away 52 = Between -69dBm and 73dBm @ 11.4m away 149 = Router maximum channel is 128 and 149...

To be honest, this is the only open-source app that I know that is supposed to give good results, unless you know of any other app? I'm going to have a problem with regards to getting another phone as I don't have one. I stood approx. 10 metres away (Router is upstairs and I'm downstairs) and...

I followed what you said and changed 2.4ghz to ch11 and 5ghz to 80mhz/ch100. The 5ghz shows good strength on app for all channels, but now the ch4 to 11 on 2.4ghz show poor strength. This is getting weirder or the app is crap.
