    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    SOLVED!!!! My reset button seems to be not functioning correctly. I had to aggressively push down the reset button to get it to recognize. Thanks for everybody's help! I am currently running merlin 384.17 and I did the factory reset after firmware update. Thanks again!!!

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    I used to connect the verizon mifi to my cradlepoint mbr-95, then connect a wired ethernet to the asus router. Today, during the setup of my asus router, I setup the asus as a repeater. After I typed in the password for the mifi in asus setup, the fast blinking light thing started up again

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    Correct, however no matter if I continue to hold the reset button for 10 seconds or 2 minutes, still it goes solid power led for 5 seconds, the internet light flashes 1 time, then all lights go dark for 1 second, then fast blinking LED forever. I did this reset again today, then left it for 3...

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    The router will not go into rescue mode. I unplugged router from dc adapter cord, unplugged all other cables. I pressed the reset button and plugged in dc adapter to power on, held reset button for another 15 seconds. (I did the same thing with the WPS utton). I plugged the ethernet cable to...

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    After the firmware update, I clicked the asus link to restart the router on the web based gui. I would like to go to merlin, but I can't get it to recovery mode.

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    I have what seems to be a bricked asus ac-88u router. It powers on and has a power led for about 3 seconds, then it goes to fast blinking and stays like that. I have tried WPS hold into recovery mode, and holding the reset button. I have even tried both buttons for the 30/30/30 reset. My power...

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    Is there any way that I can connect to the router via my pc and force the firmware update without it running the recovery mode?

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    From what I've read, slow blinking indicates that it is in recovery mode, and fast blinking power led means WPS mode is enabled. I can't connect via WPS when it is blinking rapidly Holding WPS button while powering on does, it goes back to solid light then back to fast blinking. Same thing for...

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    I tested my power adapter and it is puting out the correct voltage with my multimeter. Could it still be bad if it shows 19.25 voltage and it is supposed to be 19v output?

    Asus RT-AC88U rapid flashing power LED light after firmware upgrade

    I have an Asus router that is flashing rapid lights on the power LED indicator. It won't factory reset or boot into recovery. It started doing this after the official firmware update. It did this a month ago after last official firmware update, and after messing with it for hours, reading...
