    AX88U DHCP leases issue??

    Gotcha - I am definitely getting them frequently. Sometimes 10 consecutive times for the same device. Logs are flooded with these messages.

    AX88U DHCP leases issue??

    Oh well, glad to hear! I had 2x 86u's in aimesh before this router and never saw these dhcp messages in the logs. Of course I wasn't running Merlin either, due to aimesh. I wasn't sure if it was problematic or not. Doesn't sound like it is, and thanks for responding!

    AX88U DHCP leases issue??

    Hey guys - I keep getting a reoccurring message in the logs on my new AX88U running Merlin 384.9. I've got 6 wired clients in TV's, nvidia shield, blue ray player, sound bar - and several wireless phones, ipcams, tablets, laptops, etc - most on 5G, couple on 2G. It seems to switch around...

    Need help setting up 2x Asus 86u's in AP mode

    You're mostly correct. I don't the exact reason Merlin doesn't support AiMesh, however, it is not supported in Merlin. I've seen some guys running a hybrid of one router on Merlin, and one on Stock and that will still somehow create a pseudo mesh network with the benefits of Merlin - but I...

    Need help setting up 2x Asus 86u's in AP mode

    For some reason I could not get one in router and one in AP mode... I created 2 different router logins and did full factory reset on both... and Inused wired connection to log in and set them up initially to make sure I wasn't actually getting into the wrong initial wireless for the setup...

    Need help setting up 2x Asus 86u's in AP mode

    Sweet man thanks! I have Merlin on both - your saying you run one on Merlin (router), and one on stock?? Also, when setting up initially - what is the order?? Setup router first, then log into ap separately and set it up separately then connect all together and viola? Is there any settings I...

    Need help setting up 2x Asus 86u's in AP mode

    Hey guys. I'm feeling pretty stupid here to even have to post this.... I would love any advice as to what I'm missing. I have a cable connection with cable modem, and 2x RT-AC86u's... I was running AiMesh but kept running into dropped clients and finally decided to roll AP mode over AiMesh to...

    Aimesh - Did anyone give up?

    Maybe that's how I have to set mine up too... I bought two 86u's thinking it would be great, but clients drop in and out for no reason and no matter which version of the firmware I use something is fked. Maybe it's time to roll Merlin, put in the long time getting it all tweaked correctly, and...

    Aimesh - Did anyone give up?

    I didn't think it was possible to use AImesh with Merlin - did something change?

    Aimesh - Did anyone give up?

    Are yous still running 21140 on your sx RT-AC86U's? I'm running the Sept 14th firmware and I've noticed some strange short 2-second wifi dropouts. Was curious if rolling back to this firmware and resetting all routers completely and rebuilding AIMESH would help. Thanks for any advice!

    AC86U x2 and AC66UB1 AI MESH unstable - 3.0.0.4.384_20648

    I don't have an Asusror NAS, I've got a QNAP TS-251+ with dual Nics and an ALB load balancing setup similar to what you described through a virtual switch setting on the NAS. I just got 2x RT-AC86U's installed in Aimesh last week and have had zero issues or errors in the logs relating to load...

    ASUS RT-AC86U Firmware version RT-AC86U_3.0.0.4.384.32797

    I have 2x RT-AC86u's and haven't had any issues on the newest firmware. I am also using a wired backhaul so I assume that's why - as it seems you folks having issues are on a wireless backhaul
