Good to hear about that. Amazon return offered me $46 refund to keep the item that originally paid $220. Base on your info about BE86U,,, maybe I keep it :)

I found one open box and just got it for $160, pretty decent and very mint condition. I guess I would need to return the BE86U ... I've been hearing issues with BE86U!! Thank you!

Hello, I’m currently running a solid mesh setup with three RT‑AX86Us, covering a 6,600 sq ft lot (the house itself is 2,500 sq ft). The coverage is flawless with zero dead zones, and the AX86U units continue to perform exceptionally well. They can run 8–9 months without a reboot, unless I...

I came here exactly for this ... I have 3 RT-AX86U and it will be quiet effort to factory reset all of them although my wifi key and admin pwd are 20 characters mix symbols and number and low and high cap. Let strike lottery with this update at this time Kakaka! Factory reset after the update...

Yep, with stability, strong coverage, AX86U is on top. I'm running AiMesh network by RT-AX86U (x3) at my house 2400 sqft for 4+ years without any downside, major hiccups (only 1 times that main AX86U did not want to be AiMesh router, I switched it to be AiMesh node and made another AiMesh...

Exactly,,, I was trying to use the same with my old AC86U...and everytime if 5G client connects to AC86U and the 5G interface stopped accept client connection BUT Ac86u maintained Aimesh connection with the AiMesh router in 5G , weird right.... I tried to use it but it was EoL ...I retired it...

Agreed, Asus DDNS is a gimmick. The reliability is no existing. YES, because it is free! As of now, their service is now up. It was actually downed like 12hr yesterday. I only use DDNS for OpenVPN otherwise I use DYNU DDNS for my other services (hint, it is free as well) Cheers!

(using Asuswrt firmware) I suddenly found that DDNS Asuscomm is not really reliable service. Is it just me or anyone else experienced the same? Since the service is free so they have no SLA no nothing to ensure the service uptime reliability at all! Or their DDNS service's been downed for...

My advice from previous painful RT-AC86U experience, or perhaps only happened to my AC86U,,,the RT-AC86U I had has very weird issue,,,once 5Ghz Wifi gets loads and the 5Ghz wifi band started choking up ALTHOUGH the AC86U maintained its AiMesh 5Ghz connection with AiMesh router and only 2.4Ghz...

Hello, My current AiMesh network is currently hosted by 2 x AX86U and AC86U. (My Aimesh network is 99.9% up time since most clients connect to AX86U and only 2 or 3 wifi client connect to AC86U since it is far front in garage) . 1 of AX86U is AiMesh Router, others are AiMesh node. I have little...

I have the same problem with RT-AC86U (US) ...sometimes the 5Ghz stopped working itself and being used as AiMesh node...I think it is time to get rid of it....the intermittent issue of 5Ghz made me to upgrade my AiMesh network to RT-AX86U 3 years ago until I found the AC86U in my storage thought...

Your problem reminded mine. I have AiMesh by 2 x AX86U. One nice day, my main AX86U router stopped letting AX86U Aimesh node connect, no matter what I tried. I reset the main one, rebuilt the AiMesh Node AX86U as router and the old main router became AiMesh node. It was 18 months ago. I've then...

In my experience, dropped packets could cause by so many factors from hardware, software by so many devices involved along the interlinked! I've been using RT-AX86U since 2021 and it's pretty reliable. It seems the Pro version of AX86U having the problems since released... why didn't you try the...

Thank you very much for everyone's advice/response! Yes!! My AiMesh AX86U network runs latest stock fw and very smooth and reliable ..... ..the oldest AX86U I bought in 2021 and second one was in 2022.!!

Hello, I have AiMesh with AX-86U (1 main and 1 node). I split 2.4 & 5ghz into two different SSID xxxx-2.4 & xxxx-5ghz. It's been reliable AiMesh, Wifi .. Does splitting 2.4/5Ghz to two different SSID make WiFi6 not working (as I heard Wifi6 needs both 2.4 & 5Ghz to work)? Do i need to enable...
