    Experiencing Packet Loss

    Well last night while on the wifi network I pinged 4.2.2.2 on the following settings: Ping Type: ICMP Packet Size: 1500 TTL: default Timeout: 3000 Count: 2500 Interval: 500 General Timeout: not used --- ping statistics --- 500 packets transmitted, 497 received, 0% packet loss, time 294661msrtt...

    Thanks. What's a good ping interval? 500ms?

    Experiencing Packet Loss

    Does the 1500 byte packet include the header or should I adjust for that? I know my MTU for my network is set for 1500 anyways. I am using a new app on my phone called PingTools and I can adjust packet size and packet send speed but anything above 68 bytes says "Truncated"

    Experiencing Packet Loss

    Well, I changed a bunch of settings on all bands on my wi-fi the two days ago. I am still experiencing packet loss according to speedtest.net but now when I ping the router itself or another address outside my network, I get 0%. Not sure whats going on and why speed test says I still have...

    Experiencing Packet Loss

    AWESOME! Im in the middle of a remodel at the house and when I get all moved around I'll try this and then do the factory reset and see if I have any issues before I upload the list back in. Thank you again...

    XT8 Drop outs

    I'm having the same problems with 2 ET8s as nodes. No fix at the moment. Waiting for Asus or the 3rd party project to release a firmware to see if it helps... They connect then go to the blue light flashing rapidly every few minutes... My post here. If you Google the XT8, there is a forum...

    Oh, that is awesome. Don't know much about the NVRAM system and SSH though. I'll have to dive into it though. Thanks.

    Experiencing Packet Loss

    I am having issues with packet loss on my WiFi. I've read in several places that packet loss up to 1% should be expected (and that is OK for me) on networks with heavy workloads and considering other factors like signal strength, noise, walls etc., but I am experiencing 7% to 15% on my 5ghz...

    Et8s flash blue

    Actually yes it is needed in my situation and when it works, it works perfect. I may be getting ok coverage at the moment, but when I say that, I mean "ok" at the very low end of poor right when a device can disconnect because of poor signal.

    Et8s flash blue

    Since it started happeneing I've used all the radios and it still experiences the same dropouts. Otherwise I've been using 6ghz radio since before christmans when I purchased them and never had an issue until a few weeks ago. My house has refrigerated cooling so heat is not an issue. No other...

    Et8s flash blue

    I can only select 5ghz-2 for ac5300 and I select 6ghz for both et8. And it works (well was working rather). Devices were connecting to all nodes and were fast. As of late, I couldn't "reserve" a backhaul like when I was using the ac5300 as the main router.

    Et8s flash blue

    Ethernet isn't an option where they are located and I was trying to get the 6E more coverage (But that doesn't seem to work unless the device connects to the main router and that is a seperate issue there altogether too). I only used ethernet to test connection. One is on end of the house...

    Et8s flash blue

    I have a mesh network with an axe-16000 running Merlin as the main router, two zenwifi et8s and one rt-ac5300 as nodes. Recently the et8s won't stay connected via wireless backhaul but the 5300 will. I've factory reset the whole network, nodes etc but the et8s will not stay connected. They'll...
