    My Router webpage turned Chinese language and username/password don't work anymore

    I’m on an RT-AC68U and things have been fine all these years except today my guest network stopped assigning DHCP and I’m getting weird behavior. It feels like someone’s been messing with my config. That or it got corrupted. I wonder if there are some unpublished vulnerabilities being exploited...

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC3-3 public beta for IPv6 DDNS and IPv6 VPN server

    I just wanted to provide a long term data point re: this RC3-3 build. We are coming up to 60 days of uptime on our pair of ET8’s. This is amazing, because the factory FW it shipped with (which for the longest time was the only FW available) rebooted the nodes 1-4 times a day. Thank you so much...

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC3-3 public beta for IPv6 DDNS and IPv6 VPN server

    No issues with RC3-3 on my ET8 pair with my Xbox One so far. Will keep you all posted.

    No firmware updates available for the ZenWifi ET8?

    Thank you! Giving this a try and seeing how things go.

    No firmware updates available for the ZenWifi ET8?

    Yeah, that's what I'm doing right now. But the problem is that these are happening more often than every 24 hours, so we'll still get at least 1-2 more interruptions during the day.

    No firmware updates available for the ZenWifi ET8?

    Thanks! I am actually using a wired backhaul using the LAN cable. But that’s a good point, maybe we should try the wireless backhaul…

    No firmware updates available for the ZenWifi ET8?

    Thanks! That's fair, but also unfortunate. Yes, since Day 1, we have been having issues where every 12-24 hours the nodes reboot by themselves, often disrupting work in the middle of the day. I have been writing about them here in the only other ET8 thread and had a few others reporting the...

    No firmware updates available for the ZenWifi ET8?

    Has anyone else noticed how Asus has never released any firmware updates at all for the ZenWiFi ET8? https://www.asus.com/Networking-IoT-Servers/Whole-Home-Mesh-WiFi-System/ZenWiFi-WiFi-Systems/ASUS-ZenWiFi-ET8/HelpDesk_BIOS/ It’s been 6+ months since the “initial release” and since the...

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    How is everyone doing with the ET8? Our reboot problems never went away even with re-flashing their FW, resetting, swapping the nodes, we tried everything we could think of. ASUS is saying it's a HW problem, so I'm wondering if everyone here who has had an issue, have you had them replaced?

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    So I ended up flashing the FW on each of my two nodes with the same version available from Asus’ website (since they haven’t released anything newer) and the reboots seem to have gone away or gone down. Need to do more testing to confirm.

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    Opposite for me. I’m getting many reboots in a 2-3 hour window sometimes.

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    I’ve been using a wired backhaul since the beginning. I think the more I tinker with the web admin panel the more likely it crashes. If I don’t touch it them maybe 1-2 reboots a day. Right before the system reboots, I noticed on the main web admin page the number of clients show 0 and the...

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    Without touching any of the settings, the Zenwifi is now going down and auto rebooting several times one afternoon. Ugh.

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    With that issue solved comes the issue of a portion of our phones and tablets losing WiFi and not being able to connect, even after restarting the clients. Nothing in the system log on the Zenwifi, but a reboot of the routers solved it.. ugh.

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    I think we’ve found the cause of our reboots… I haven’t made any settings changes since the last reboot. I wonder if the way the firmware saves any settings changes isn’t done properly right now, and it eventually leads to a crash. we’re coming up to 24 hours and no reboots so far. Haven’t done...
