    Asus Ac68U as nodes.. firmware upgrade question

    OMG- never mind. I am an idiot, lol. I got into the main router and could see the nodes... i went to upload and it wouldnt work. I was thinking I had to be connected directly to the nodes to upload upgrade. I kept getting an error when trying to upload the firmware file. Well, maybe that is...

    Asus Ac68U as nodes.. firmware upgrade question

    Dang it, found the issue I think. I have GT-AC5300 not RT... I presume that is the issue with the firmware not uploading? Still cant figure out the problem with two brand new routers dropping connections though...... frustrating when it worked fine up until 2 weeks ago when the old one died.

    Noob question- AC5300 update to 2.6 firmware issue

    I had a AC86U that died about a week ago. I replaced it with (originally) an AX86U- but in playing various online games we were all getting dropped at various times.
