    AX86U + AX82U - Can the 82U be the primary?

    If you are just using it as a node you can leave it on Asus firmware. And just run merlin on the main router.

    Yeah just checked. The ac88u has 128mb flash and a 1.4ghz cpu The ac86u has 256mb flash and a 1.8ghz cpu I think there is also minor differences with the radios. Will wait until a day off to tinker with outting mesh in ap mode. However had a look at channels available on the current setup...

    I had an old access point that was getting used upstairs, as the signal was a bit low. And the ac86u came on offer so took the opportunity to use ai mesh as thought it would be better. The ac86u is also a little faster isn't it?

    Certainly nothing in the logs mentioning DFS. As I've been going in and checking them every so often. I can't remember the exact time it happened earlier to post the log. But will take a note if it happens again. The node is an ac88u and was purchased Dec 19 and was the main router. Then...

    I think it was that to begin with and just set it to that. And keeping away from dfs. I can change it to another channel to see if that helps. Assume it better to keep away from dfs? I currently don't use the guest network. So no big deal at the moment. The firestick is currently bound to...

    Network throughput dropping

    Yeah. Using WiFi scanner on my phone. No other 5ghz networks visible at all. (Pretty low density area) Detached property with about 4m either side. And relatively wide street so neighbors across the road are reasonable distance away My phone was on 2.4ghz and I never noticed any interruption...

    Network throughput dropping

    Ok, running with smart connect and roamming assist disabled. And think had another drop again this evening. My phone was on 2.4 connected to the main router and didn't seem affected. Had just put something on the firestick and it stopped, and my partner's phone who was on 5ghz also couldn't get...

    Thanks. I currently have it set at 20/40/80 Both beamforming had already been disabled after setting up. I've tried disabling smart connect and roaming assistant and see how things go from here Thanks

    Network throughput dropping

    Sorry forgot to add. 5ghz is fixed on channel 36. So no DFS. And 2.4ghz is channel 11. I don't think I've ever been able to see any other 5ghz channel from within the house. We are a detached house, With roughly 5m either side to the next house. 1 is an older lady who has an old bt router...

    Network throughput dropping

    Thanks for the insight. I dropped the 5ghz power down a little incase they were interfering. Yet issue still happened again. All devices are mobile devices so no laptop. When it happens it seems to affect all devices. Or at least those on 5ghz. The only devices on 2.4ghz normally are smart...

    Network throughput dropping

    Hi. Not sure if this is the right place Got an RT-ac86u Every so often it's like the network connection just drops. Device still shows connected to WiFi. But won't connect to anything. Can't even connect to the router itself. Which makes me think this is an internal problem. Running 386.4 and...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker v4.2.x (see new thread for 4.3.x)

    Hi. I have just installed diversion on my ac86, however on some click through links. I keep getting an error that my connection is not secure Is this because diversion is blocking due to an ad. Or have I misconfigured something. Using latest merlin and latest diversion. Fresh install and no...
