    RT-AX88U Pro issue I can't work through

    Good day Peter, basically your Wi-Fi adapter needed to be updated to see AX based routers. One of my tenant laptop was having same issue because it was using intel 7260 as well, updating drivers solved the issue. This FAQ is applicable to your situation https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1037422/

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 is now available

    There is nothing strange about router bootloader, different regions can have different version numbers for their respective bootloader.

    1.5GB fibre internet with AC86U (WAN speed)?

    Yes, you are limited to 1Gbps speed. I have same package from my provider and I am using RTAX88U pro take full advantage of speed. You will need router which atleast have 2.5 Gbps WAN to take advantage of it.

    [ 388.4 alpha Build(s) ] Testing available build(s)

    I noticed on RT-AX88U Pro, upload speed is reduced significantly, on gigabyte plus I only get 300 Mbps. Rolling back fixed the speed issue.

    How does Guest Networks work on the technical level behind the scene ?

    Nope, in your case there is no isolation between devices In current setup. Since there is no way isolate traffic between different wifi names.

    Configuration advice when using Bell Pure Fibre

    No, once you disable wifi it will remain disabled even after restart. Also all new modem from bell is Gigahub which is very similar to HH4000. Only exception is 5GHZ TV band, other than that no problem, even TV one can change to minimize impact on primary WiFi. What speed profile you have in...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 Beta is now available for Wifi 6 models

    Merlin I was trying firmware on RT-AX88U Pro and noticed after factory reset under wireless professional tab roaming assist was set to -70, from what I can remember your firmware always disabled it, while original asus firmware left it on. I could be mistaken but is it possible to have default...

    Compiling a extreamly basic Asus firmware stripped of every single add-on made

    To further state what merlin said, many components dependent on others, even if somehow you could manage it. It will break everything dependent on it. Best thing would be just built you on router, there are literally many open source based software.

    Configuration advice when using Bell Pure Fibre

    I can help you with that one, since I am using RTAX88U with merlin firmware and Bell TV service. First thing first there is no bridge mode with Bell modem, instead pppoe pass through is used, which basically allow external router acquire public ip address and avoid NAT directly. What I have done...

    Best way to config primary and secondary routers

    Regarding pppoe pass-through, you will need b1 and password that bell gave you, if you not sure about password you can reset at my.bell.ca website. Under wan section of asus router choose connection type pppoe instead of automatic then enter username which is b1 and password then click apply...

    Best way to config primary and secondary routers

    I am with bell Canada as well, their is no bridge mode but you can use pppoe pass-through to obtain closest thing to bridge mode. @ hydrogenius, On back of modem do you have phone line or fiber connected. If fiber you can remove hh3000 completely and just use asus router for everything, if that...
