    Thank you both!

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25524

    Does anyone have a downloadable link for this firmware?

    Asus Zenwifi AX XT8 Wireless vs Wired Backhaul

    I was wondering if any of you all have tried both versions of the backhaul. I used MoCa to do wired backhaul to be more efficient for some rooms that weren't getting great signal, and found that my network was slower overall that way than when using the wireless backhaul. Understandably very...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    . I have to thank you for this! I was running the latest firmware and it had crippled my network speed down to 200Mbps at three feet from the router. Since installing the new firmware I'm back around 450 or so ( I have gigabit). I'm starting to be concerned that the MoCa adapters are somehow...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    Can you PM me the link to the beta software too?

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    That might be the worst set of firmware release notes I've ever seen. Considering that QoS was a major contributor to poor stability in the prior version, not mentioning that you've worked on it is ridiculous. My network has been solid since upgrading, but the throughput has been subpar...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    Hmm, If you go through the web interface, they actually have note under Network Map. If you look on the upper right, you will see System Status. There you can click on the 5G-2 frequency tab and it explains that they have dedicated it to the wireless backhaul (which I don't use for most of my...

    ZenWiFi XT8 new firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25509

    Mark, what do you mean your node disconnects? Are you seeing this through the router web access page or the mobile app? I ask because my nodes have been running smoothly with no disconnects for weeks.

    ZenWiFi XT8 - iPhones connected to Wi-fi but no internet

    Mine were doing this too, but I seem to have fixed it for the most part. My solution was disabling QoS. I don't think this works for everyone, but it has worked for me. The few times I lost connection, I could gain it back by toggling the WiFi on/off on the phone. The nodes never needed...

    ZenWifi XT8 AX Access Problem

    I am and really appreciate having them, as my porn site surfing can really lead to some bad malware. All jokes aside, I have three kids who somehow can click on terrible links, so protection is a must. It's done a great job up to now.

    Amplifi Alien

    Did you return this? If not, what are your long term comments on the Alien? They seem to continuously sell out, but no one (other than right here) has reported anything about the performance of the router. I'm personally running a pair of Asus AX Zenwifi systems, but am not happy with the...

    ZenWifi XT8 AX Access Problem

    Funny, I came from a Netgear Orbi setup that had been completely solid for years until the last two or three firmware upgrades. That set me on the path for a new setup.

    ZenWifi XT8 AX Access Problem

    Hey, I have this setup at home (actually two sets of AX Zenwifi). I was having the same issue as you, but made a couple of internal changes that fixed it. I haven't lost connection since. First of all, I disabled QoS completely. In the current state of the firmware, it just doesn't work...
