    AiProtection status page does not update! nor block anything anymore?

    I've had an Asus Lyra setup for a few years. AiProtect has never worked more than 45 days after factory resetting. I worked with Asus engineers, sending internal logs, etc. They stopped responding to me after a while, and I've given up. In my experience, if I remove the network (from the app...

    Looking for some security

    Except AI Protect and Parental Controls are buggy and don't work reliably. That's a fact, and unresolved issues still exist years after engaging Asus engineers...at least on Lyra systems.

    Yeah, that was a dumb reply. Didn’t add to the discussion at all. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Looking for some security

    I have an ASUS Lyra system and the AI protection crashes after a few weeks forcing a complete reset of the routers. The parental controls have never worked reliably at all. I’ve worked with them after reporting detailed bugs and logs and it’s never been fixed. You’re not alone. Sent from...

    Lyra is abandonware

    This firmware is still the current one, and the software issues with it are absolutely horrible.

    Lyra is abandonware

    Yeah, the release notes from today: - Improve WiFi stability - Improve WiFi roaming under AiMesh mode - Fix Ethernet backhaul issue under AiMesh mode So, no mention of the litany of actual software / feature bugs that have been going on since product launch. #sad

    Lyra is abandonware

    I bought the Lyra back when it first came out. It's been various levels of flakey since day 1, but at least they were popping out firmware bi-monthly. Now, it seems they don't even bother. Last update was Nov 2018. I know there are CVEs and other bugs as well (because I've reported them)...

    [Official Beta release] Lyra series AiMesh beta support

    Their product line management is a freaking joke. the Lyra itself wasn't even stable and the software features full of bugs (aiProtect stops working, parental controls don't work, hostnames are listed like "anonymous", "apple", etc despite having DHCP hostnames). Then they throw in this...

    ASUS Lyra Home Wi-Fi System Reviewed

    Dude, I am sooooo frustrated with this product. It is so buggy. Forget about even trying to use the Parental Controls even with the latest app / firmware combo. Performance is ok. It will randomly stop logging things to the log, stop logging AIProtect stuff, and none of the clients show their...

    New firmware, still buggy. And now with the added bonus of just dropping connections every couple days. (need to reboot to fix)

    ASUS Lyra Home Wi-Fi System Reviewed

    I'll help: Step 1) Unplug Lyra Step 2) Put Lyra back in box Step 3) Return Half baked product to store because it doesn't do half of what they claim it does and they haven't released firmware or app updates in two months.

    That wasn't last week, that was 9/15.... hasn't been an update since. Maybe they meant "last month"

    ASUS Lyra Home Wi-Fi System Reviewed

    This must have been fixed in the recent app update. I tried to replicate this with the updated app, and now it prompts you for your Asus account credentials when you first install and try to connect to the Lyra. But one of my kids has the version of the app 1 release prior and he was able to...

    ASUS Lyra Home Wi-Fi System Reviewed

    Here's another fun one: The Lyra App's 'PIN' protect feature seems to be implemented client-side only. So nothing stops anyone connected to your network (like your kids) from downloading the app to their iPhone and manipulating router settings (like parental controls).
