Anyone else care to power cycle their router and check the WPS state if previously off?
I setup my router wired to my computer if it makes any difference. The manual calls for connecting wirelessly, but ive heard firmware updates via wireless are risky.
I use eset smart security and had to...
Oh sorry i had missed your post, Well count me in for this bug. I have had 4 rt-ac87R. All of them do it after resets etc.
I hope it gets fixed.
Cheers
I have found a bug in the 5 GHZ WPS toggle or setting.
When you switch WPS off for both frequencies, 5GHZ WPS only remains off until the next reboot or power cycle.
Upon the restart, the GUI will show WPS off, but it is in fact ON on 5GHZ band.
I have confirmed it by using it on m laptop to...
Quick update.
I liked this router so much(rtac87) that i bought one for myself. Aside from minor bugs i love it.
My third ac87 has the wps problem also. Im going to post it in the bugs thread. Hopefully it gets resolved in upcoming updates or as i hear, merlins neat modded firmware.
the...
got another one and same thing. The new one had some problem booting up also??!! it did boot after a reset.
This is actually for my parents house and they are technologically challenged but have AC clients. I ended up buying them a Linksys 1900ac. Muh more spartan GUI but no annoying bugs...
Thanks for the advice! I i just entered these commands via telnet and i think it all went successfully because it rebooted on the last one. But WPS on 5ghs is still enabled.... grrr:mad:
Im going to exchange it. My first one wasn't so stubborn about keeping this setting. I hope this one is...
This is my second one. The first one actually came with a big ole scratch on the top:mad:, Couldn't accept that for the price, So i exchanged it.
Best buy is notorious for denying returns and exchanges these days. They warn you on your last allowed return .It Happened to to me with a 30$ camera...
Thanks. I really appreciate the help! Dont know how many more times best buy is going to let me exchange these lol. want to try to fix it or confirm a bug before I try another one.

am i possibly missing a setting on the router? it sends me to a page where it asks me to reconnect
"Settings have been updated. Web page will now refresh.
Changes have been made to the IP address or port number. You will now be disconnected from RT-AC87R.
To access the settings of...
if thats is contained in the FW version its: 3.0.0.4.376_2678.
If thats not right tell me. Im a noob when it comes to routers and just want it working right.
First rt-ac87 onlt exibited this issue once, then held the setting. This one always enables WPS on the 5ghz band on reboots. Very...
HI, like the title says I can only seem to disable WPS on 5ghz until the next reboot.
When I reboot or power cycle the router, WPS will be showing on my wifi analyzer even though the toggle on the web gui is showing off. If I cycle the toggle, WPS remains off until the next reboot.
This...
