    Slow download but fast upload.

    940+ up and down practically the same. I’m hoping to get an Ethernet cable ran to a node upstairs. Modem and main router downstairs, with the downstairs all hardwired in. Seems that something is off with the 160mhz channel. If i take it off auto and manually change channels I get mixed results...

    Slow download but fast upload.

    What setting can I check on my router to fix my slow download? I have a 1gb fiber connection and on Wi-Fi I get 744 down but can get 905 up.

    XT8 160 control channel on 5g2

    I’ve tried all of that. Phone, windows pc, macOS, iPad os, doesn’t seem to matter. Hard reset, soft reset though the GUI.

    XT8 160 control channel on 5g2

    I can not set the control channel. Sometimes it will let me and list them, but 98% of the time it will show auto and it picks a channel that is slow and not even in the drop down when it does let me manually change it. Then when I can set it it also will revert to whatever it wants. But I get...

    Asus ZenWifi XT8 - wifi speeds after latest firmware update

    This might be a noob like question, so sorry in advance, is going back to an older firmware as easy as downloading it and then uploading it? And do I have to do all my nodes or just the main router or will doing it to the main router push it out to the other nodes? Or best to turn off nodes...

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX XT8 - 5Ghz-2 Backhaul

    I’m having issues with the 5g2 at 160hz. I can not manually select the control channel, and the auto select seems to do a horrible job. If I reboot sometimes I can select the channel, then it will work great and I’ll have darn near full speed and then it will randomly die and be slow, like...

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8)

    figured it out, I had to use the firmware recovery tool, which I was hesitant to do so, since it was from like 2012, but it seemed to work and I fixed my issues.

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX (XT8)

    I’m having trouble updating the firmware on 4 XT8s. It tells me there is an update, but it won’t update. It acts like it’s going to do it, but when it says the process is completed, it’s still on the old firmware and I have to reboot the 3 nodes to get them to reconnect. I’ve tried manually...

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX XT8 - 5Ghz-2 Backhaul

    What is the best channel settings for the WiFi backhaul? I’m having slow WiFi on a 1gb fiber connection. Get full speed at the router on Ethernet with laptop.

    1gb fiber ASUS ZenWiFi AX RT8 6600

    I just had 1gb fiber installed this week, previously I had Charter Spectrum 400mb service. I have 4 of the Asus ZenWiFi RT8 6600s. I can't get over 300mb in speed on WiFi with them. I have tried several different settings and I'm about to give up. When the cable internet was connected, I had...
