    Having connection issues, would appreciate some advice.

    VR, I am seeing similar if not the same issues you are since updating to the latest firmware realease 380.68. My internet connection on PPPoE seems to be dropping multiple times a day. I don't see any disconnect on my Verizon router that is just serving as a modem to my RT-AC88U. I also have an...

    Asus Router app

    I am still seeing this behavior in the latest firmware releases and app version....has there been any response to this from ASUS anywhere in these threads that I'm missing. This seems like it would be a problem that wouldn't go unnoticed. This is a fairly common feature in today's router...

    RT-AC88U Frequent WAN Dropouts

    Okay all, so I have been experiencing major issues with frequent WAN dropouts using my RT-AC88U as my main router connected to a bridged Verizon DSL Actiontec GT784WNV. I am currently running on the latest official firmware release from ASUS (v. 3.0.0.4.380_3341), and the issue only seemed to...

    AC68U regularly drops dhcp from ISP when inactive (sometime when active, too)

    I am having the same issues since upgrading to the newest 3341 release on my AC88U. I have to restart my router everyday it seems now. Unfortunately I can't downgrade with this release so I think I'm stuck. Anyone find a solution to this? Is this fixed in newest betas? I have Verizon DSL over PPPoE.

    Adaptive QoS Bandwidth Monitor No Longer Working

    Well, nice dice there either... I am now on the beta and Bandwidth Monitor is still completely broken. The meters show almost no movement at all, even when running a speed test. Any other ideas?

    Adaptive QoS Bandwidth Monitor No Longer Working

    Okay, so I did a factory reset, but still not seeing any readings from Bandwidth Monitor. If I am correct in my assumption, this basically means Adaptive QoS is unable to evaluate the traffic coming through the router, and therefore not working at all. I am going to try to move to the beta...

    Adaptive QoS Bandwidth Monitor No Longer Working

    Did just as suggested but still getting no readings in Adaptive QoS Bandwidth Monitor. Any other suggestions? Are you seeing this issue on you AC88U Merlin? I suspect that AQoS is not working properly either if it is not getting the proper read outs. It seems as though streaming has become...

    Adaptive QoS Bandwidth Monitor No Longer Working

    Since upgrading to the latest official firmware from ASUS 3.0.0.4.380_2345 I have noticed that the bandwidth monitoring feature has stopped accurately reporting download and upload traffic. When I run a speed test for example, I get around 2.8Mbps, which is what Adaptive QoS is set to, but the...

    [Preview] RT-AC88U and RT-AC3100 380.57 firmware

    I have not experienced the issue you are having, but then again I am using Merlin's FW and maybe that's part of my problem. Perhaps the stock firmware would correct my issue. I'll try that when I get home tonight and see what happens.

    [Preview] RT-AC88U and RT-AC3100 380.57 firmware

    Is anyone experiencing issues with their RT-AC3100/AC88U not booting back up after powering it off and back on? Mine is only showing two solid lights on power and Ethernet, and the router does not broadcast wifi or Ethernet signals. I am running the latest Merlin 380.57 release.

    Bricked RT-AC3100?

    Okay so I have been perfectly happy with my RT-AC3100 until the other night when I needed to pull the power on it for a bit because my internet was acting sluggish yet no traffic was really using my bandwidth. Once I powered it back on now all I get are two blinking white lights (power and...

    Adaptive QoS - Questions

    I would love to hear more about the Streamboost vs. Adaptive QoS comparison too but looking up info on the internet comes up lacking. In fact I have a Streamboost DLink DGL-5500 that I replaced with a ASUS RT-AC3100 and can honestly say that my streaming has suffered since the "upgrade". In my...

    [Official] RT-AC87U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.378.9383

    Is this for the RT-AC3100 as well?

    [Firmware Bugs] RT-AC3100 Firmware 3.0.0.4.380_858

    I think we are mixing up "Adaptive QoS" and "Traditional QoS" a bit here. First of all, Traditional QoS is not in any way a traffic shaper. Traffic shapers typically use DPI (Deep Packet Inspection) to analyze packets coming from the WAN to the LAN and tag traffic for prioritization. This is...

    Adaptive QoS Not Throttling

    @vanic I would love to help you test the beta firmware for QoS. Let me know where to get it and I'll see if I have better luck with the new release. Thanks.
