    New AX88U firmware 3.0.0.4.388.22525

    Apologies I was looking in wrong thread for a post.

    New AX88U firmware 3.0.0.4.388.22525

    I see there is a new firmware showing up inside the app, assume web interface too, but it isn’t on the ASUS website. Without website being updated I’m not sure we can see a change log anywhere? Updated: Found it on website under Driver & Tools > Others, someone must have tagged incorrectly on...

    BT Full Fibre 900 FTTP AX88U Setup Guide UK

    Been using the AX88U for 6 months with no issues with ISP Zen which uses BTs network. Speed 900mbps, no custom settings, it just worked when given the PPPoE login details.

    Release ASUS RT-AX88U Firmware Version 3.0.0.4.386.48631 (2022/04/25)

    Has anyone else noticed that parental controls, time scheduling no longer works. It doesn’t seem to block any more, was fine before the update.

    Release ASUS RT-AX88U Firmware Version 3.0.0.4.386.48631 (2022/04/25)

    Bizarre, I updated 24 hours ago and oddly wifi seems to be 100+Mbps faster, and I do regularly test. It’s even faster on a DX4 node (wired backhaul), so maybe it isn’t wifi but the routing that’s faster for WiFi? Connection is FTTP 1gbps over PPPoE, normally wifi is 600-650mbps, now I’m seeing...

    AX58U Takes 10 minutes to broadcast 5Ghz

    Channel 120 is a DFS channel, with 10 minute delay. Try channel 36, should work straight away. This is normal behaviour.

    Slow Internet Speed Test Shown on Adaptive QoS Page

    A limitation is fine, but why imply it could test a connection of 900mbps. Does the country where it was designed not have internet that fast, which I doubt.

    Slow Internet Speed Test Shown on Adaptive QoS Page

    Thanks for all the comments, I don’t have QoS turned on, but I do have parental controls on. When I get a chance I will do some more testing. From comments this would almost seem like a bug, as I am sure a command line Speedtest (on router) could cope with the speed, but maybe not. Maybe this...

    Slow Internet Speed Test Shown on Adaptive QoS Page

    I just noticed that the QoS page of my new AX88U has a speed test, don't think my old AC87U had this. Anyway I thought this would be the best speed test as it's on the router, but it's showing almost half my connection speed. Anyway my FTTP connection is sold as 900/100 and via command line...

    Is the TX power higher on channel 100+

    Does anyone know if Asus routers, for example the AX88U, use the higher permitted TX power when using 5GHz channels 100+?

    Router Using 40MHz on 2.4Ghz when set to 20MHz

    I did a bit more searching and found an article on this forum, via Google, that suggests it's a bug with LinSSID on Ubuntu. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-rt-ax86u-2-4ghz-auto-forces-40mhz-bw.71947/ Although I note changing the mode to "N only" it shows as 20MHz in LinSSID as noted in...

    Router Using 40MHz on 2.4Ghz when set to 20MHz

    Good point, I was using a Linux app, just tried the built in WiFi scan on my MacBook Pro... This shows both devices as 20 MHz, so it would appear the panic is over! Thanks for the comments, you've solved my issue, desktop software error. I did notice the one router is transmitting a country...

    Router Using 40MHz on 2.4Ghz when set to 20MHz

    Hi Firmware as below, both should be on the latest firmware version. AX88U - 3.0.0.4.386_46065-ge51f2dc XD4R - 3.0.0.4.386_46061-g9a06866 I noticed this when they were on auto, I've now changed to manual channel and rebooted both, still the same. Surely the clients cannot force 40MHz if the...

    Router Using 40MHz on 2.4Ghz when set to 20MHz

    Hi, I can't find any mention of this on this forum, or on Google to be honest... I've just got two new routers: - Asus RT-AX88U as router Asus Zen Wifi XD4R as Access Point I've just done a WiFi channel scan and see that both are using 40MHz channels on 2.4GHz, when set to 20MHz only. Is this...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.18 and 384.13_10 is now available

    I will try again tomorrow now, I note no USB devices connected and why doesn’t the firmware page find the new _10 firmware if the updated failed so to speak. I have been using the Merlin firmware for years and this has never happened before.
