    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    I finally got everything working by removing Merlin , returning to stock firmware (latest version) and doing a Hard factory reset on the router. I left the nest completely Alone. The issue was 100% with the router firmware/settings on it. I have also not changed any of the default settings...

    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    That doesn’t explain why the nest works just fine with my older router. I just hooked the old router back up again and the thermostat is connecting to everything just fine. The issue is with the router

    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    Furnace was off I think at the time. I think there’s 3 wires but have to check. I definetly appreciate the help but can I ask where you are going with this? How does this have to do with getting the thermostat to work with this router, knowing that it works just fine with my older netgear router?

    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    Haven't install any special add-on's.. This did work at one point, and when it did it would work for a little bit and then eventually the nest wouldn't be able to connect to anything. I would think If it was lack of whitelisting it would 100% not work all the time

    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    A complete reset hasn't improved the situation..Changing SSID also doesn't improve (even with complete factory reset). The problem 100% has to be with this router, and the settings with it. I had got it working at one point with assigning it a static IP, but it would still loose ability to...

    those are already disabled. Same situation nest thermostat says it’s connected to the network but it can’t really reach any services , so checking for a nest upgrade fails and I can’t control it via the nest app or best website

    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    The problem is most definitely with this asus router. As soon as I go back to my old my old netgear r7000 router everything works well again with the nest. Like I said the nest first “connect” successfully to the router but it doesn’t seem like it’s able to communicate with anything in the...

    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    I dont Use any guest networks at all, so it’s on my regular 2.4ghz. I’m using the latest Merlin beta firmware 386.2 beta 2 that I upgraded to his morning after I heard it might fix this issue, but no dice. The nest thermostat says it’s connected, but it’s not really Able to connect to...

    AX86U nest thermostats not connecting - common problem

    All, It seems there is a common problem with our ax86u routers (and nest thermostats getting or maintaining successful connections through the router. I dont think this issue is regulated to just the AX86u router but probably other asus routers as well. here’s a few examples...

    New AX86U node and IOT devices

    Looks like the beta has not fixed it for me. I can’t get my nest thermostat to get connected at all now. The thermostat itself says it’s connected but when the Web client and iOS nest client says it’s disconnected. I also can’t check for a software update on the nest itself which indicates...

    New AX86U node and IOT devices
