I was actually thinking to upgrade, but was not sure to which one.
Before AC86U I had N86U and the signal was not strong enough and my phone was not connecting to 5Ghz in the bedroom.
AC86U does not have that issue, 5GHz signal is strong enough in the whole flat.
Also tried Keenetic Hero and...
Almost forgot, I also tried those channels as it looks like higher channels have higher transmission power.
I use WiFi Explorer and it says that channels >100 have 30 dBm while 36-64 have 23 dBm.
Indeed, when I change the channel to 100, I can see Signal level goes up on the laptop, so it...
I thought if there are other APs on same channels, the speed goes down, as they have to share the frequencies.
The router is 3m away from my work laptop, with almost direct visibility.
Right, to rule out ISP, I was running iperf from NAS connected to Asus via LAN, and then to my laptop over...
I guess that explains it, I bought it in 2018.
The reason I want to try all channels, my ISP recently bumped speed to 600 Mbit, but I hardly get 600 on 5 Ghz when it's conflicting with other APs.
So I'm experimenting and trying different channels. I'm reaching 500-550 on averge, and saw 600...
Hi all,
I live in Netherlands and bough RT-AC86U there. However, the country code it advertises is DE (Germany).
Probably, as both are in EU I assume it should not matter.
The issue is, I'm unable to select channels 120/124/128:
It means I can't use one 80 Mhz band, as only 116 is...
I have Asus RT-AC86U and it does not work with Huawei E3372-325.
I reached to their support and they said it's not supported, despite their list says the opposite.
Interesting that I tried with Keenetic and it just worked.
I have native IPv6 address and am trying to use DDNS with domains.google
This is how it looks in UI:
But the domain only gets ipv4 address. I checked /etc/inadyn.conf and it doesn't mention ipv6.
I tried to make a copy of the file and added "allow-ipv6 = true" into it, and then tried with...

Hi everyone,
I have RT-AC86U with stock firmware 3.0.0.4.386_51255
My ISP provides native IPv6 which I enabled.
ICMP packets are blocked from WAN to LAN when Enable IPv6 Firewall is set to Yes - I tested it multiple times with several devices on LAN, using https://ipv6-test.com and also ping6...
