    Asus RT-AX88U Pro stopped working occasionally

    Set 5G to 80, no 160. AX took a while to find. Turns out it's not where the old post was, but in "Professional" in mine. Everything seems to be connected and Clients: # count stable, too. Leaving Kasa reboot for 4:30 AM so I have a clean reboot for tomorrow, then can see how it goes. Thanks!

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    I have a separate thread for my tribulations for stability with my RT-AX88U Pro. (LINK --> Asus RT-AX88U Pro stopped working occasionally) I'm back posting here to give additional observations about the interaction between the Asus and Synology. I've reconfigured some things and thought the...

    Asus RT-AX88U Pro stopped working occasionally

    Worked with ChatGPT to figure out what was best, given my local competing WiFi signals. Here's what it had me choose: Channel bandwidth (2.4G) - 20 MHz Channel bandwidth (5G) - 40 MHz (check) Enable 160 MHz Control Channel (2.4G) - 1 (best, alternatively 6 or 11) Control Channel...

    Asus RT-AX88U Pro stopped working occasionally

    Router was failing ~24-48 hours on a restart. Decided to go back to the .5 firmware and ignore the client count. For a while the client count didn't move with the .5 firmware. Today's reboot has started that problem again. Figured whatever fixes are in .5 WITH the known irrelevant problem is...

    Asus RT-AX88U Pro stopped working occasionally

    Saw a similar thread with an RT-AX86U with Merlin, but that seemed to resolve to a USB issue. My RT-AX88U Pro is a few months old, but has been relatively stable along the way. For the past few weeks, I've had stability issues. At first, I thought it was related to my cable modem. I replaced...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Well, that was nice. Less than 24 hours later and the network went down twice since then. The current "down", I noticed that I couldn't access the router. I decided to reboot the AX88U Pro this time and see if everything recovered on its own. It did. I no longer think my cable modem or Cox...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Not that anyone is tracking, but finally found out the source of all the crashses. My Netgear CM1100 is 5-6 years old, running hot, and dropping connections. $200 later, I own a configured Arris S33 and everything is running fast and clean today. BTW the new equipment (S33 and AX88U Pro), a...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Nope. Turns out, I'm not keeping 102.5... When the router crashed last night, I just assumed it was Cox. I rebooted the router *then* to just make sure everything was clean. When the router just crashed again right now, it was *not* Cox and 100% the router. I'm now of the opinion that...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Same. I think Dave and I interactively found out "Synology" with our tests and Colin isolated "link aggregation" with my removal of one LAN cable. I'm assuming that no follow-up from Colin literally means that this is ultimately solveable and Merlin is ever watchful of relevant threads...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Both plugged in. Figured there seems to be no risk of actual problem with the count rising / resetting, so would rather have the double bandwidth. Colin said temporarily remove, so I assumed he didn't need additional testing. Can/will do if it helps isolate, but the NAS is the heart of the...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Something new, in case it helps. I had a problem with Cox and had to reset everything. When everything came back online, went to Client List, sorted by network, to see if any machines needed to be brought back online. While looking for a Wired Linux server, I noticed something about my...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    I'm guessing because it is accessed constantly. It is work data for some, media (music, movies, tv, etc.) for all. I would assume that frequent access would bring repeated queries.

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Back from the game (LFC 4, Bourne 2) #YNWA #GoReds :) Ran the commands. Hard to know what to look for when the Synology MAC is mentioned. Lots of appearances. Nothing overly repetitive, despite quantity, from newbie glance. Used grep to pull out the exact MAC address into a new file...

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    Unplugged LAN2 with Clients=110. Now 111 and holding. 60 seconds later, back to 110. 20 seconds, then 111. 2 minutes at 111 and holding as I post this reply. LAN2 is now *WHITE*, not green. NAS seems fully functional.

    Bug: Clients count on Network Map

    About to leave the house to see the Liverpool FC game at my local OLSC for the noon game, but one more final observation. The Clients number *again* reset back to ~40, but this time while idly doing nothing. Maybe I closed that <f12> window, but from my side 'randomly' reset to the real number...
