hi, i have updated the firmware on the RT-AC52U many times before, but this time it seems to work, but it doesn't. i currently have 3.0.0.4.380_8457 i am trying to update to 3.0.0.4.380_8497 i DL'd the file, unzipped, and upload to the router. it all seems to work and then prompts me to...

idk how long the warranty lasts, but my guess is i'm no longer covered by it. i think Asus should consider implementing my suggestions going fwd. as someone said in the other thread, another good idea would be just removing the power button altogether.

adding myself and my thread to this inexcusably stupid issue: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rt-ac66-power-button-dead-using-tape.42482/

thats a good idea, i'll remember that when my duct tape fails. having said that, is it known if the problem can be worked around by firmware should the developers care to implement such a solution? i am really miffed by this, as should anyone be who spent this kind of money on a router.

so out of the blue and untouched, the power button on my router, which is small and chintzy just like the power cord itself, no longer stays depressed. the spring pushes it out into an off position, the latch or whatever no longer works. i have had to take a piece of plastic and duct tape it...

i appreciate that but it doesn't really answer my question... i don't understand the difference between the options, or if any of them work even if the bluetooth stuff isn't compatible. basically, i want to clear a lane for some sony rear surround speakers that use the S-AIR system, and i...

i have an asus rt-ac66r it has an option under the wireless settings professional tab for 2.4 band called bluetooth co-existence. it has 3 settings: enable disable pre-emptive can someone explain what each one does, and specifically the difference between enable and preemptive? thx.

i want to thank you both for your informative replies. i am partial to using the reset button, b/c i'm not experienced with running scripts. it would be nice if the FW allowed a user to backup only the DHCP reservations, and/or other similar settings that could be safely restored after any...

is that when you hold the reset button 5 seconds? do you do that after its on and running? also, i have 30 DHCP reservations, which i will lose doing a reset. can i save them by doing a "save setting" on the administration tab, and then restore them? or will that defeat the purpose of the reset?

hi, sorry if this is already reported. i have seen it in older firmwares as well. i have the .9135 fw on the RT-AC66 and overall i like it. however there still is a bug which has been there for the past few versions. i use win7 with Chrome browser, but issue exists in IE as well. when you...

did u guys have to jail break your phones to make this work? did you turn on or off usb debugging in developer options? doesn't Verizon keep you from turning on usb tethering unless you pay extra for it? I got a mobile hot spot app for the droid called "FoxFi" that turns the phone into...

i should add I'm in the USA, more info: in the router, on the USB page it says this: "3G/4G Switch to USB mode to use a 3G/4G USB wireless dongle or Android phone as a USB modem. Support" not sure what "switch to usb mode" means, or what it refers to? the phone? the router...

I'm not trying to change the world, just some shoddiness perpetuated by ASUS. and you have given me nothing to debate, just vague platitudes about walking in other peoples shoes. if u care to specify what u said I'm wrong about, i'll explain.

yes they are, you are wrong, and again its obvious and not worth debating.
