I strongly recommend contacting Asus regarding your router's issue so that they can issue an RMA. I have the same model of both the router and cable modem. Ever since I bought the router to use as a AImesh node, it gradually slows all network connectivity to the point where after 3-4 weeks, I...

I use my RT-AX58 as a AiMesh Node, but it serves mostly as a wireless media bridge for my work laptop and my desktop. Like you described, I have had some issues with the router either disconnecting from my AT-AC86U or after about 2 weeks I start to loose bandwidth to the point where any client...

Welcome to the club. I have almost the exact same issue with my AX58U, except that I have to either restart or reset the unit to factory settings after 2 weeks because the AX58U looses bandwidth to the point where client devices feel like they are on a dial up network. There has to be a...

Hi all. I bought my AX58U from Best Buy back in May and I initially set it up as a Wireless Media Bridge to use with my desktop PC and my work laptop. At first the router would work great giving me the full 400Mbps/20Mbps connection that I pay Spectrum for. After two weeks, the amount of...

Like I said, if you can use your own modem. You certainly should. But I totally get that in some countries, some users do not have that option(which is unfortunate). To answer your question, yes I’m going to say that it is okay extremely common in the USA. Most households don’t even realize...

While trying to solve my own RT-AX58U issues, I couldn't help but notice your thread and that I am the first person to respond. It's been about a year, but have your problems with the AX58U improved? Did turning on/off IPv6 and adaptive QOS improve the performance of your 58U?

I am aware of that. Although I’m not familiar with the country of origin of the OP, let me just say that if you can use your own modem, you should do so. Granted, I get what you’re saying that you may not want to buy one if a unit is provided free of charge, users may check out the model of the...

Regarding firmware updates for Puma 6 modems. This issue wasn’t actually solved. Granted your device may have responded well to the most recent firmware release, but Puma 6 modems still have the flaw regardless. I thought mine was fine as well until it wasn’t and it became a time bomb of...

The only thing I would look into is the cable modem. I started having issues with bufferbloat as well and I also use the 86U. As it turns out, my issue was due to a bad cable modem that was affected by the notorious Puma 6 chipset. I ended up replacing my old cable modem with a Netgear CM1200...

Thank you for your response. When I initially setup everything, I did reset both the AC86U and AX58U to factory settings. It took a couple of attempts but they would finally connect with AImesh But it was the unfortunate push of the 86U’s reset button that proved disastrous with completing...

Thanks for your feedback. You raise a good point. I had thought that they were at least comparable devices, but I stand corrected. When my AImesh worked, it worked well until I pressed the restart button on my router. Normally I wouldn’t press that button but while on the phone with my...

I was wondering if any of you would kindly share your thoughts with my on my AImesh predicament. I did try AImesh in my home with the RT-AC86U as the AImesh router and my AX58U as the node. The problem was that if I restarted my AC86U, I would loose AImesh completely resulting in my AX58U...

I have had the same issue every since I updated the firmware to 3.0.0.4.386_42643 of my RT-AC86U. I noticed the problem when I tried to play a game on my old Xbox 360 while I was also checking the network map. The Xbox 360 could connect to the internet but would not appear on the 86U's...

From what you described, it seems as though your initial set up was correct. While I do not use Netgear MoCa Adapters, I do use Actiontec's and my setup is RG 6 coax cable #1 connected to the wall outlet--->2.4 ghz splitter---->RG 6 coax cable #2 connected to cable modem and RG 6 coax cable #3...

Hi stephenp, I wanted to let you know that before you buy the MoCa adapter, that to make sure that you purchase the model that is designed for Verizon Fios. Actiontec makes two models of these adapters, the ECB2500CK01 is designed to be used with cable TV service, while the ECB2200V is...
