So it took a while for the 2.4 guest side to die this last time around. Once it did and was confirmed in the error state, I went to the Pro settings under the Wireless tab and tested the wireless scheduler. I shut down the 2.4 radio for 2 minutes via the scheduler and that brought the guest...

Sure, I'll keep this thread update with my efforts and the details. I wonder if the wireless scheduler under the professional tab would work for this purpose. Can anybody share what occurs when the wireless scheduler is used to disable a wireless band (disable radio, turn a service off...

Had to wait a while for the problem to recur this time around. When it did, bouncing the 2.4ghz radio with 'radio off 0; radio on 0' worked to get things back online. I am going to schedule a radio bounce to occur nightly to see if that prevents the issue in the future. If that does not help...

Thanks SammyG, I'll try bouncing the radio the next time it happens to see if that gets it back online. Does anyone know if there is a command line equivalent to clicking the apply button for a guest network? Thanks.

Hi L&LD, thank you for the reply. I'm pretty familiar with yours and other's advise on the topic. I usually do a factory reset via the GUI, then follow that up with a WPS reset. Load up the firmware, and reconfigure manually, not loading any previous config files. I actually followed your...

Hello everyone. I know there are a lot of guest network problem threads in this forum, but after reading many of them, I think this problem is somewhat unique. I am running Merlin 386.2_6 on an RT-AC5300. The firmware was cleanly loaded. I have two guest networks enabled, one on 2.4Ghz, the...

This is interesting. Maybe the problem that I am running into with both the official and Merlin .386 firmware. I get problems with the WAN side getting an address, and when it does, clients can't seem to pass much more than a ping or nslookup over to the internet. After a couple of pings or...

I've done a lot more testing with my RT-AC5300 with 386_43129. Even when DHCP on the WAN side works (rarely), I still have trouble passing traffic via wired and wireless nodes. Seems to be DNS related. Same results with Merlin 386.2_6 & 386.2_4.

I too had the same results after updating to 3.0.0.4.386_43129-g60defb2 from a 3.0.0.4.384 version on my RT-AC5300. After the update the router will not get a DHCP address on the WAN side, error "WAN Connection: ISP's DHCP did not function properly.". A rollback to previous 384 version...
