Yes, its a good idea to reset the router from time to time. I also running split bands so I don't think the splitting has any influence on the disconnections. Interestingly, my router had the Roaming Assistant disabled by default.

Just wanted to share a solution I came to after a year of random Apple Home disconnections. My Apple HomeKit have many devices from Apple, Aqara, VocoLink, Meross, Nanoleaf, Smartmi and others. I have the Asus Router RT-AX88U running the latest Marlin software 3004.388.7. During the last 12...

Done. Sorry my bad. :)

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...

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...

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...

I went to this page before but I missed :) some fields in the Merlin setup as they moved to different places like for example the Accept DNS Configuration field that is now in VPN Network Settings and not in VPN Advanced Settings. Its working now. Tx

I had the ExpressVPN setup on my old router AC87U. The AX88U running the Merlin 386.3_2 is different to the AC87U firmware. I wonder if anyone can help me to set it up.

I have Lexmark printer that has two different IP client numbers showing in different tabs. The printer has static IP 192.168.1.215. In Network Map - View Client List it shows the correct IP 192.168.1.215 but in System Log - Wireless Log it shows and old IP 192.168.1.99. Even after refreshing...

Thank you L&LD. I will follow your guides.

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...

The interesting part is on the second screenshot. When I cancel the backup, the data transfer is uninterpreted??? What the backup program should do is access the router and delete the partial backup file. What actually happens is that it transferring uninterrupted data for quite a few...

Tx for all the replays. I observed the same dropouts using slower computers. It looks the stronger the PC CPU the shorter the transfers are because more data is capable to be transferred and the router CPU cannot cope with it. Yes NAS will surely help...

Colin, Do you know why while doing backup the throughput is dropping down to zero and resuming again?

Tx for your answer.
