    [RT-AC3100/RT-AC1200G] Connection issues with addition of more wireless devices

    Bingo....if only intermittently was good enough :P Thanks again for your help though OE - think it's time to call this as busted, but appreciate your troubleshooting tips regardless. Yes, I'm slowly waking up to this conclusion as well. The 5Ghz on the main router is completely MIA this...

    [RT-AC3100/RT-AC1200G] Connection issues with addition of more wireless devices

    Ok, so quick update. I re-flashed my main router with the latest ASUS firmware. No issues, and everything started up like normal - even the 5Ghz band. A bunch of things connected to it. I reset my access point router, and got most things I would expect to connect to the main router 5Ghz band...

    [RT-AC3100/RT-AC1200G] Connection issues with addition of more wireless devices

    Ah - good point about the default router wifi. I don't recall if I saw it or not when I reset the router last night. If that doesn't show up with a 5Ghz connection, then the radio must be fried. I'll give your suggestion a go - I'll try flashing the same firmware again, then roll back to an...

    Yes, I read through the post - very informative. I went through the process of factory resetting both routers last night, after updating the firmware. I then manually re-configured both routers back to my original settings. However, my problems still persist. Subjectively, it seems a lot worse...

    [RT-AC3100/RT-AC1200G] Connection issues with addition of more wireless devices

    Thanks for the quick response. I haven't done a reset on the routers. I honestly wasn't aware that it's something you should do semi-regularly. I was trying to avoid the factory reset route just to save the trouble and disruption (both myself and my wife work from home and need the internet...

    [RT-AC3100/RT-AC1200G] Connection issues with addition of more wireless devices

    Hi Everyone, I'm brand-new to the forum here and am having some issues I'm hoping everyone can help me sort out. I'm fairly technically minded, but networking is not my area of expertise. Problem: My problem is that I've recently added 9 Google home mini's to my network as part of a whole...
