    Any known issues regarding AC2900/RT-AC86U 2.4 GHz radio malfunction?

    I have USB3 disabled. After turning off Smart Connect, it's been mostly ok.

    Any known issues regarding AC2900/RT-AC86U 2.4 GHz radio malfunction?

    I’m still having this issue, 2.4G just stops operating. I am planning on adding a script that reboots the 2.4G radio if no devices are connected with 2 checks 10s in between. I might also turn off SmartConnect and go from there. Here is what it looks like when the 2.4G freezes.

    2.4G WIFI connectivity problem

    Finally figured it out, connecting anything USB3 to the Shield TV creates massive interference on all 2.4G devices BT and WiFi. Even with shielded extension cables and ferrite cores it was unusable.

    2.4G WIFI connectivity problem

    I have been waiting for the 8.0 Oreo update hoping that it would fix my Shield TV interference issues. It arrived the other day and my 2.4G has been working since. Bluetooth keyboard is still short ranged but not sure if it related. Edit: But the issue is now back again. Shield TV interferes...

    2.4G WIFI connectivity problem

    Ok! So it's all because of signature verification - from Asus. But Asus is open to allow 3rd party firmwares to get signed, the only thing really stopping them is the platform change that is a major change and will need a lot of work to get AC86U supported. When dd-wrt adds support for r8000P...

    [RT-AC86U] what are the differences between European and Asian variants?

    I have tried the enable and pre-eptive. It didn't help. This device use wifi-direct for the old controllers, but disconnecting them didn't help. I'm running on Ethernet cable but the wifi can't be turned off. I've found another user with possibly the same problem here...

    2.4G WIFI connectivity problem

    Yes, Asus-WRT works, but not tomato, dd-wrt or open-wrt, because of the bootloader, right? Oh, didn't know that. But how come dd-wrt is in the works for R8000P with the same CPU? Did Broadcom only lock the bootloader for Asus? My nr. 1 choice is your merlin mod but having a choice is never a bad...

    2.4G WIFI connectivity problem

    Ok, just to be clear. I don't believe I have the 2.4G WiFi problems as the rest in this thread anymore. I had the same problems I have now with my R7000.
