    Upgrade from AC-86u

    Well, the AC86u is on 386.x and my AX88u is on the 388.x code base. It looked like it was lagging to me.

    Upgrade from AC-86u

    Hi, I have multiple Asus outers in a mesh configuration, all running Merlin's code (which i truly adore). The AC-86u isnt being updated any longer so I'm considering upgrading to a more current unit. I have an AX-88u as my core and this one just handles a small amount of traffic in the far...

    Wireless much slower than wired.

    My cable internet service is 50 Mbps dl and 10Mbps ul. I supply the modem which is a Arris Surfboard. The ax56u is in my shop building via wired Ethernet and the ac86u is in the master bedroom which is in the other end of the house from where the ax88u is. Signal was spotty in the bedroom which...

    Wireless much slower than wired.

    Thanks, but unfortunately it didnt help. Running speedtest.net on three different laptops, one brand new with very little on it. Oddly enough, its only the download speed that is affected. Upload is 11 which is the cap on my service. I would suspect Comcast if it wasn't for the fact that...

    Wireless much slower than wired.

    all hardwired. unfortunately I do have a need for 2.4. I went into wifiradar and went into channel stats and it says available capacity 0% on all networks. Not sure what to do from here.

    Wireless much slower than wired.

    Hi, I have an AI mesh consisting of an AX88u as the core and an AX56u and an AC86u. Any device connected to wired ethernet reports 50M + on speedtest which is what i would expect. Devices on wireless, be it 2g or 5g range between 5M and 11M. Any suggestions on where I can start looking? I'm...

    upgrading to AX-88U from AC-86U

    Working perfectly. Not a single glitch. The only issue I had was I had to reload the vpn profile for the vpn client.

    upgrading to AX-88U from AC-86U

    So far, so good. 4 days and counting. The only issue I had was with my VPN client. Had to import the ovpn config file again and all was good. Everything else has worked perfectly.

    upgrading to AX-88U from AC-86U

    Ah... it is a little larger, but a necessary evil in my case.

    upgrading to AX-88U from AC-86U

    Why the downgrade? I had no issues with mine, I just needed more ports. Also, since it appears that my 87u is no longer getting updates from Merlin, I can replace it with the 86u and use aimesh.

    upgrading to AX-88U from AC-86U

    running the same version of Merlin on both. We'll see what happens. Will probably try this afternoon.

    upgrading to AX-88U from AC-86U

    thanks much. very helpful. I think I will give it a try since I'm not trying to fix a problem. I can always go back to the 86U if I start seeing issues.
