    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    With AX/AC beamforming (or explicit beamforming) both router and client devices work actively together to improve signal strength and throughput. With Universal beamforming (or implicit beamforming) only the router tries to improve the transmission to the client without active input from the...

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    I haven’t had any issue with the 50427 firmware. I use it in AP mode (have not tested the AX68 as AImesh node or in router mode with the latest firmware).

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    UPDATE: One month later and 5 Ghz is still stable with firmware 50427.

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    I have been running 50427 for four days, and 5 Ghz is stable until now. The first time an RT-AX68u Asus firmware is stable for me on 5 Ghz since the 42808 firmware.

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    I have no issue trying 386.7_2. But my question to L&LD was about his 35 customers with the AX68. I was interested if they had the 5 ghz issue from this thread before 386.7. And if not to find out what is different with his configuration. For me that is not wasting time as Tech9 suggested.

    Why?

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    Did any of those 35 customers with the AX68 have the issue with 5 ghz before 386.7? How do these customers use the AX68, as router, AP or AImesh node? Do these customers all use the same setup, and if so would you mind sharing this setup? Thank you :-).

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    For test purposes I have reverted back to Asus firmware 49479 from stable Merlin 386.7. After some time 5 ghz stopped working again. In the log the last entry for a 5 ghz device which was not able to connect anymore states: wlceventd: wlceventd_proc_event(494): eth6: Deauth_ind...

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    Merlin 386.7 is running fine with 5 ghz on my AX68u for over a week now. I have been looking at the changelogs of merlin 386.7 and Asus 49479 to see if I can find something on why Merlin works and Asus’ firmware doesn’t. The one thing I could find is that Asus fixed OpenSSL CVE-2022-0778 in...

    No, I did not do a hard reset. Just a “dirty” upgrade to 386.7 merlin. Now running 1 day and 16 hours fine.

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    Updated to Asus firmware 49479 from merlin 386.7 stable release. 5 ghz broke down within 12 hours. Timeline: - Merlin 386.7 beta 1 was stable for a week. - Merlin 386.7 beta 2 was stable for around 4 days (performed JFFS restore as recommended). - Merlin 386.7 stable release which ran for a...

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    After using merlin 386.7 beta 1 for 6 days, 5 ghz wifi is still working fine with my AX68. So it seems to have been solved for me. I have just upgraded to merlin 386.7 beta 2 and will see how it works with 5 ghz. Note: when upgrading from 386.7 beta 1 to another firmware Merlin stated (see...

    Thank you for this link L&LD. I made a JFFS partition backup as adviced by merlin.

    ASUS AX68U 5GHz Band Dropping / Disappearing

    Flashed yesterday my AX68 to merlin 386.7 beta 1 straight from the stable Asus 42808 firmware. I use the AX68 as access point. Did some testing with heavy downloading, playing a very long 4K youtube video, and general usage on 5 Ghz. The router seems after 24 hours to be stable on 5 Ghz...
