Hi, I have an Asus RT AC5300 running Merlin firmware v384.7 and have struggled with wifi stability for absolutely ages. I've tried different channels and likely all manner of configurations even Ai-Mesh but nothing stays stable. My IP cams drop on and off of the network, printers drop off of the...

Hi, I have an ASUS RT-AC5300 configured in dual WAN load-balancer mode I'm using a script to send upload intensive traffic out via WAN0 and download intensive traffic out via WAN1. The problem here is that WAN1 intermittently drops out and I'd like it to failover if this happens. Does anyone...

Hi Sanna1967, I tried with beamforming disabled but it made no difference. Will try disabling Airtime Fairness. Thanks

Hi kfp, Both routers are running 384.5. Thanks

Hi, I am hoping someone can help me before I start flashing my routers with DD-WRT or Tomato in the hope that it fixes the issue! So, I am running 2x ASUS RT-AC5300 routers; one as the primary router connected to a BT OpenReach Modem and another as a hard-wired AP connected to the primary...
