    RT-AX88U has a serious bug with firmware 3.0.0.4.384.9566 (random reboots)

    Thank you very much for your detailed reply - much appreciated. Let me add my own findings. In the end, I did purchase the AX88U a month ago to replace the AC88U. I have been running it since at stock 3.0.0.4.384.9579 (the 386 came out a week after I bought it, and I haven't moved to it yet). I...

    Release AX88U 3.0.0.4.384.9579 (2020/10/13)

    Yes, website is showing and has a changelog: https://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/RT-AX88U/HelpDesk_BIOS/ Anyone brave enough to apply it already, please let us know! I am still on 384 9579. It has been stable, but I had to turn off HE frames (802.11ax) since about once a day, the 2 ax devices on...

    Release AX88U 3.0.0.4.384.9579 (2020/10/13)

    Thx for sharing. I still only see 384 build 9579 https://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/RT-AX88U/HelpDesk_BIOS/ and https://www.asus.com/us/Networking/RT-AX88U/HelpDesk_BIOS/ Is there another link? Not that I am brave enough to go for it yet, too soon :-)

    Release AX88U 3.0.0.4.384.9579 (2020/10/13)

    Thanks. I've just bought and installed the RT-AX88U and put 9579 on it. So far so good, but time will tell - only been 1 day so far. Merlin and others are doing great work, but my personal preference is that if it works, I just stick with the stock firmware.

    Release AX88U 3.0.0.4.384.9579 (2020/10/13)

    Hi everybody. Is this 9579 stock firmware (still the latest available) stable, with decent 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz range? Seems odd that the earlier RT-AC88U firmware is on 385, but this newer model is on 384. I assume there won't be a stock 385 for the AX, but that it will go to 386?

    RT-AX88U has a serious bug with firmware 3.0.0.4.384.9566 (random reboots)

    Hi all, Apologies if this is not an appropriate place for this question. I currently have an Asus RT-AC88U. It has great range, stability and performance. But, even though it is only 1.5 years old, the latest stock firmware logs a message every 4 seconds, which I think is written to flash every...

    RT-AC88U, 4 ports not working

    Just an update - after a day or so with my LAN port 5 not working, with the GUI main status page (the one showing CPU) flagging it as 100Mbps even with nothing connected, and with portsLinkStaus=1 in the syslog every 4 seconds, this morning, without me doing anything, and with no reboot either...

    RT-AC88U, 4 ports not working

    I also have a RT-AC88U. My LAN ports 1 - 8 are all fine, other than 5. I don't have anything plugged into 5, but noticed under system status on the main screen the router was showing 100Mbps! Plugged something in, didn't work. All other ports reflected the status correctly immediately on that...

    portsLinkStaus=0 after ac88u 3.0.0.4.385_20585 update

    No, stock doesn't seem to have that option.

    portsLinkStaus=0 after ac88u 3.0.0.4.385_20585 update

    Thanks for replying. I couldn't agree with you more. I guess not that many users look at the log, and it doesn't cause an issue as such, so they haven't fixed - but still, you would think having released 3 versions with this issue, they would have taken the time to fix it. Must say, otherwise I...

    Link to official assuswrt source code

    Looking at that page for the RT-AC88U, the latest source is for 3.0.0.4.384.81116 but the latest firmware binary is 3.0.0.4.385.20631. Is the original ASUSWRT (non-Merlin) source for the 385 series not available?

    portsLinkStaus=0 after ac88u 3.0.0.4.385_20585 update

    I have raised a case with ASUS for this so hopefully their devs will look at it. They are suggesting that after a firmware update, that I factory reset the router. I am very doubtful that that will fix this spamming of the log. Can I just ask: 1. Has anyone tried a factory reset of their router...

    portsLinkStaus=0 after ac88u 3.0.0.4.385_20585 update

    Yes indeed. I logged on via SSH. The timestamp of the syslog file, and it's contents, actually only see to update every 1 minute on the filesystem - must keep 1 minute of logs in memory then flush, since the messages themselves, that can be seen in the GUI, arrive every 4s. Obviously 1 update a...

    portsLinkStaus=0 after ac88u 3.0.0.4.385_20585 update

    I just updated to the latest 3.0.0.4.385_20631 - seems a very minor release from the change log compared with 20630. I was previously on the very old 3.0.0.4.384.81116 release, which I must admit was rock solid, and I had no spamming in the system log at all. Everything seems OK with 20631, but...
