I've been so frustrated with the 88u. Practically all my devices use 2.4GHz sadly. And it's not just as simple as upgrading the wifi cards in them either! The only way to get this router stable for me nowadays is to do a reset once in a while.

.15 is no good. Damn. My ethernet cabled connection is super unsteady. Whats a good version you guys think?

I downgraded to 13.0 as what you guys said, my mesh node is unstable as hell... I didn't have much issues with .15 aside from unstable speeds at certain times. .14.2 was okay once I set the Channels manually. Strange... Don't know what to do now. Might go back to 14.2 for me as it was the...

Trying .15 now also. Seems to be okay, speeds are fast. Hopefully it is more stable.

How do you install the terminal and adblocker? I would love that. The firewall is not necessary for me.

I've also followed this guide and the results have been stable, good for homekit connection. https://jlian.co/post/reliable-homekit/ 88u has been a very problematic router for me, RMA'd 3 times this final hardware revision is good.

Thank you so much, since the changes I have made (Manually setting Channel 10 and 20Hz) 2.4Ghz has been perfectly stable.

I'm thinking that too. My 88U is in a corner, of my room because I need my desktop to be connected via Ethernet. So the mesh nodes are to provide wifi to the rest of the devices in the home. I wish my house was newer and had ethernet wiring running through the walls...

If you could share these settings that would be great. Let me know, since I switched to Asus from Netgear my experience with home-wifi has sucked.

So I basically have 3 mesh units for a 1200 sq/ft area, but the problem I might be getting is interference between each router. I notice I need to disconnect wifi and reconnect to find the right router to connect to.

Asus 68U easily available and cheap for mesh. I also upgraded from the R7000, and the R7000 was a damn good router. Too bad the rest of the netgears all suck.

I have several home automated devices that only run on 2.4Ghz band, security home camera and automated switches. I want to say 2.4Ghz is useless in 2020 but not every device can run 5GHz... If it was me, I would love to have Wifi6.

Doubt it, the interference wasn't there when I was running the stock firmware. The stock firmware had 2.4GHz perfectly stable. Right now it is so bad it is unusable. Might have found the fix, the 2.4Ghz channel was virtually not working when set in Channel: AUTO. Needed to manually specify...

Hey everyone, recently decided to try AsusWRT. Other devices in my AImesh updated perfectly fine, but the main router which is hooked up to the modem is my Ac88u. After flashing, the router would not give my PC an IP and the wifi 2.4GHz was terribly slow. I tried the NVRAM reset, by holding...
