    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC3-2 public beta

    And the ZenWiFi Mini XD4?

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC3-2 public beta

    The ZenWifi Mini XD4 seems to be forgotten. Nothing since May.

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC3-1 public beta

    "People" are already trying RC3-1 ;) When I bought the XT8 in June, I was aware of the stability issues. Using the XT8 as a mere tri-band access point to a 1 GBit/s cable connection, with 43181 I could trigger a disconnect from my Intel AX201 by simply starting a speed test. With 42095...

    Re-Purposing the 3rd (Backhaul) Radio?

    The first 5 GHz radio is 2x2 with max 80 MHz channel width, while the second one is 4x4 with 160 MHz channel width. So the second one is preferable anyway ;) Assign the tree bands different SSIDs and assign your devices yourself according to their capabilities, instead of hoping for some magic...

    New ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 with Wifi 6E

    I would not generalize that. The current channel setup is for the North American and maybe Chinese and APAC markets. But since the EU has recently agreed on those 6 GHz frequencies not already in use for other purposes to be dedicated to WiFi 6E and the member states now implementing the...

    Release Asus XT8 - 3.0.0.4.386.43181 - 2021/06/17

    What I find irritating: the XT8 is essentially an XD4R (same SoC and RAM, same 2.4 GHz and 5GHz radios) with and additional radio, an upgraded switch, an USB port and some expanded firmware, but there seem to be no complaints about the XD4R. I have both as single units since recently and use...

    Interrupted connections on ZenWiFi AX (XT8)

    My impression is the XT8 has signal power management issues. I have a cable connection with 1 Gbps down and 50 Mbps up, which has its issues (currently packet loss). I purchased the XT8 unplanned when I saw the Prime Day deal of 140 € for a single unit. No mesh needed but a tri-band router/ap...

    Would a review of the MU-MIMO router ASUS RT-ACRH13 a.k.a. AC58U be possible?

    There are hardly any technical reviews of the AC1300 class, MU-MIMO capable RT-AC58U a.k.a. ACRH13, which came out last year. so its real performance is unknown, while subjective customer impressions are largely positive. It would be really nice if Smallnetbuilder could make a review of that...

    Review request/anyone have experience with this router? RT-AC1200

    There is also a brandnew Asus RT-AC1200G+ with gig ports, single core 800 MHz CPU, no USB 3.0.

    [Article] - Is MU-MIMO Ready For Prime Time?

    Here, those routers with two 5 GHz radios would make really sense, if I get it right: one used exclusively for MU clients, one for SU ones.

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    Something else in that release, because nothing changed on the client side during the days I hade 15Ex running, and now back on 14E1 things are stable again.

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    This 15x-release is troubled. For the first time since using John's fork on my AC56U I had to go back a release. I've tried 15E3 and 15E5, and with both, my Android devices (Galaxy Note 3, Moto X Play, Xperia Z Ultra) tended to drop connection sometimes during their standby. They are on 5 GHz...

    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    Two days ago I also had a sudden reboot of my AC56U with John's latest release after days/weeks (?) of troublefree uptime. The beeping of my NAS (Shuttle KD22) allarmed me to the issue while I was surfing along. I can't provide a log because JFFS is not enabled. It is attached to a Cisco EPC3208...
