    Repeated disconnects

    I have tried both regular DNS provided by xfinity and setup openDNS on ASUS and still get the red light of death on WAN. I'm unable to Disable DHCP truly on xfinity Xfi gigabit speed router since they have it blocked. I would love to make my Asus router the DHCP but would not even get involved...

    Repeated disconnects

    I'm having similar issue with my 3 Asus AX88U. My 2 backhaul mode Mesh routers are not connecting after a factory reset this just happened recently and one thing I noticed is that when I reset the button on the back, Mesh mode is not on the list on "Advanced Settings" when it reboots. I have to...

    AiMesh working and updating working on AX88U

    Doing it from the first setup page wizard I had issues too with stock and merlin loaded. What I did to fix this was. All resets and setups are all ethernet hard wired from PC to routers. Don't do anything wifi. Make sure you use the LAN ports not the WAN for pc to router connections. Do not...

    Thoughts from RT-AX88U users?

    How does the AX88U router compared to the Netgear Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR700 AD7200 ? That one is $500, I want to buy 2 Ax88U since I don't have any wifi routers in my new home at the moment. I wanted to link them by cat6a cable across the home to reduce loss and be full throughput. The...

    Asus RT-AC88U / Gigabit Internet Slow Speed Help

    Makes a lot of sense. There might be even issues or fixes needed with the AX88U. I don't think he needs lots of band bandwidth, if anything max 10-15 devices using the internet. 3-4 phones, 2 computers, 4 TVs, etc. Do you recommed the AC88U over the AC86U? Price wise won't bother him, its more...
