Just checked and it said this version is available, not seeing it on ASUS's website however. Updated and so far see no changes, but trying to check for firmware again (just to make sure it's updated) says "Temporarily unable to get the latest firmware information. Please try again later."...
So far speeds are good (on par with what the AC88U was getting) I did a speed test before swapping to the AX and speeds are about the same now on the AX. The only difference I am seeing this time, versus what I saw with the other AX routers is the IP I am being assigned. With the AC router I had...
New router is waiting to be tested in a few hours. It is H/W Version 1.1, MFG year 2020, in Vietnam. I already sent the previous AX88U back, since I didn't want to have two -- if this one ends up working for me, co-worker will let me have it, as he is going to move his AX11000 to the office...
Thanks, will try this later this afternoon. I didn’t get a chance to tinker with stuff again last night but will have a new sealed in box AX88U here by the time I get home later this afternoon. Will take it through all the paces - testing first with zero configuration done and see if it craps...
I'll see if I can borrow a switch somewhere, but nobody I know offhand has one, and I'm trying, as much as everyone else is, to limit who we interact with. I'll have access to a new, unopened AX88U tomorrow, and I've been reading that I likely want one with the 1.1 version (if that's not right...
CloudFlare 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 for IPV4 and 2606:4700:4700::1111 and 2606:4700:4700::1001 for IPV6 - same I've always used, just generally never ping or run traceroutes unless I'm having some sort of connectivity issue (which I haven't had with the AC88U, hence no reason to run pings...
Also for @Gouldin who requested ping and traceroute to Google -- this is with the AC88U as I am VNC'ing into my home PC to do it -- can't test the AX88U until later tonight but.. this doens't seem ... good... but keep in mind I'm not having any connection/speed issues with the AC88U so I have...
Well, that may have done something.. I won't know until I get home and can swap to the AX, but my AC is now getting almost 800 MB down -- I actually didn't think to try a speed test before updating the driver, but I know the ones I did a few hours ago were in the upper 500's to almost 600, so...
Adding a bit more info, in case it matters. PC is an ASUS M51 AD with an Intel® Ethernet Connection I217-V NIC (I checked Intel's website to confirm there isn't a newer driver for it, and there isn't). Any other information that may be helpful that I can provide I can do so when I get home...
I searched for RT-AX88U and RT-AX58U slow lan speeds on google and thats what led me here to begin with. Some threads had no activity some had some suggestions that I tried that did not help.
One of the threads ->...
Same ISP I have had for more years than I can count. No changes to any other hardware, just a swap from an AC router to an AX router which results in ridiculously lower wired speeds. Wish I had some other variable to introduce like a new NIC or something that could possibly be a link to the...
