    RT-AX86U Pro occasionally doesn't recognize login until reboot

    It was the first login for the day from any device.

    RT-AX86U Pro occasionally doesn't recognize login until reboot

    Okay... that makes sense. But what are the references to Merlin in the stock firmware?

    RT-AX86U Pro occasionally doesn't recognize login until reboot

    Just an aside... does Asus use any Merlin coding in it's stock firmware? I noticed a number of references to it in the logs: Dec 31 17:00:20 kernel: MerlinSupport::merline_speed_set_core(): PMD Setup 50MHz, 10.3125GHz VCO programming Dec 31 17:00:20 kernel...

    RT-AX86U Pro occasionally doesn't recognize login until reboot

    Actually....that's exactly what seems to have happened. I checked the router logs and the previous date shows as December 31 and the one prior that shows as July 3. There were also a ton of odd entries showing on the Dec. 31 date. The last entry for Dec. 31 was an NTP update. Not sure what...

    RT-AX86U Pro occasionally doesn't recognize login until reboot

    That sounds like a possibility. I'll check that the next time it happens...if I can connect before rebooting.

    RT-AX86U Pro occasionally doesn't recognize login until reboot

    Like I said in my post, fully updated stock firmware. Connecting via WiFi from a Surface Pro tablet using Edge. I know the issue is the router and I don't intend to kill a mosquito with a sledge hammer because the problem is so minor and infrequent that don't want to spend much time...

    RT-AX86U Pro occasionally doesn't recognize login until reboot

    I'm not sure how common this is, but occasionally I can't login to my fully updated stock RT-AX86U Pro without rebooting first. It still works fine but it just doesn't recognize the user name and/or password until the router is rebooted. There is no error other than invalid user. Then everything...

    2.4ghz and 5ghz clients cant communicate with each other

    I have an AC68U that I use as a mesh client. I bound all the 2.4ghz devices to it and it solved my problem. Not perfect but it works for me.

    RT-AX86U Pro received data that was not requested by device

    I remembered that my son worked for the ISP for many years. He said he's seen this before and suspects it may have been caused by a system update that went awry and not a DoS. Especially because the node went down not long after the incident. Also, I actually did hear back from Asus and all they...

    2.4ghz and 5ghz clients cant communicate with each other

    I also seem to have the same issue...sort of. I use the AX86U as my main router with an AC68U as a mesh node. With the exception of one 2.4GHz device all other 2.4GHz devices are bound to the AC68U and can be seen by 5GHz devices. When bound to the AX86U I had the same problem. For some reason...

    RT-AX86U Pro received data that was not requested by device

    Thanks. I did look it up and you seem to be right. Although it could be useful to deal with an ongoing attack. Also, as an aside point: I have another router RT-N66U that is use on a separate IP from the same ISP. I use that for my two TV connections (I have the ISP modem/router in bridge mode)...

    RT-AX86U Pro received data that was not requested by device

    Okay, so assuming you're right...why didn't my ISP record the traffic? Or could they have somehow been the ones to cause it resulting in the system going down soon after?

    RT-AX86U Pro received data that was not requested by device

    Yes, I do have some of those options running. None are necessary but add to the convenience of the device. I have been monitoring the connection activity and all seems normal. I also use a third party monitor to detect for any unwanted or unknown connections. I should also add, that my ISP went...

    RT-AX86U Pro received data that was not requested by device

    No. It only happened the one time and I'll monitor it. I'm not overly concerned at this point where I want to manually reset the router.
