    Network Map View List doesn't refresh itself on RT-AX88U since Merlin 388.4_0 release.

    Since I updated my router to the latest Merlin 388.4_0 release day after the release was available, going to the Network Map tab and pressing View List button doesn't refresh itself on RT-AX88U. It is fine for an hour or two after rebooting the router but few hours later it is like frozen...

    Modem in bridged mode connects to RT-AX88U - speeds from router are 60% lower - Solved

    Actually it was the most silly thing that I did. The cables were cat 7 and cat 8 but... I did not realized that when the Fiber To Premises is installed, the Telco company is already putting a modem. So instead of them telling me this, they asked me to bridge MY Modem. So, what I did is I tried...

    Modem in bridged mode connects to RT-AX88U - speeds from router are 60% lower - Solved

    I just upgraded my internet from cable to fiber. I have 275Mbs from the ISP when I use the modem output and plugging it directly to the laptop. When the modem is setup to bridged mode and connected to the RT-AX88U running Merlin 388.1 firmware, the maximum speed is only 99Mbs. I am using Cat 7...

    Upgrading RT-AC87U from Merlin 380.65_2 to the latest 384.13_10

    Last time I upgraded the RT-AC87U was quite a few years ago. In the last few months, the Wi-Fi connections of 5Ghz networks are very weak. The wired connections are fine. I have not moved the router, nor I added any furniture that may block the router. I'm wondering if this has anything to do...

    Slow transfers over Ethernet RJ45 Cat 6 cable with RT-AC87U
