    Curious and irratic behaviour after power outage on Asus AX86U with merlin

    TL;DR: After cutting all power to the house due to electrical work needing to be done, the AX86Us (plural) got completely confused, forgot their SSIDs, presented both default ASUS_18 SSIDs and the old ones at the same time, but remembered the custom login info for both ssids somehow, threw me...

    Switch recommendations

    Old thread I know, but still applies. Does it matter if my AC68U is end of life and no longer gets security updates from Asus, as long as it is running as a switch? (Access point mode with disabled DHCP and WiFI radios).

    YazFi YazFi Lite with Router in AP Mode?

    Ah for crying out loud!!!! So in a couple years time I'm stuck with ywo paperweights, unless it's possible to run the Guest Network Pro just on the ax86u pro, and let all the IoT connect to that one on the wideband 2.4Ghz band, and let the non-pro ax86u's handle the main network on 5Ghz in...

    YazFi YazFi Lite with Router in AP Mode?

    Oh nuts!! I had no idea he has moved on... I remember 4.4.4 was released not THAT long ago (i think), so i assumed Jack Jaz was still developing it. I had no reason to believe he wasn't the main developer anymore, as I don't visit these forums that frequently. Thanks for notifying me. I guess...

    Dead LAN1-port on ax86u... can it be fixed?

    Hi guys! I just received a pristine looking second hand ax86u, bought on my country's "craigs list"-equivalent. The router looks brand new, and everything works, except the LAN 1 port. LAN 2-4 works just fine, but LAN 1 is dead.... Does anyone know if this can be fixed or not? Or is there...

    YazFi YazFi Lite with Router in AP Mode?

    Is this possible with 4.4.4? I currently have two AX86U, one in AP-mode, and would like that one to use Yazfi fo my IoT.

    Which Asus AX model to pair with my AX86U in backhaul?

    Hahaha, wow, "abscess"... damn iphone autocorrect. There are currently no AX86U non-pro and pro's used for sale here in Norway (small country and few people), but I can get a used AX88U purchased in 2020 for 160€ (good price actually, considering what everything else costs here). Will that one...

    Which Asus AX model to pair with my AX86U in backhaul?

    Is that an accepted and proven fact that Asus-wrt 5.0 and 4.0 will not play nicely together, even if the 4.0 router will function just as an wireless AP and switch? I will probably have to reconsider to not get the ax86u pro then, and just see if I can get a second hand ax86u (non-pro). It seems...

    Which Asus AX model to pair with my AX86U in backhaul?

    My Ax86U (with merlin) has moved into the basement and taken over the routing responsibility from the ISPs subpar multifunction modem. I am so lucky that previous owner has cat5e cables in the walls, and i would like to connect a wifi access point in the living room in ethernet backhaul. Which...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.8 beta is now available

    I apoogize if this is a silly question, since Rmerlin didn't specify it in the release notes, but does this update merge with any recent asus-wrt GPLs (ie any new security fixes, performance updates and stability fixes from asus)?

    Struggling with Asus ZenWiFi BE30000 aka 3 node BQ16 Pro bundle

    Like DongKnows wrote in his reviews, expect new Asus-hardware to be buggy, but get more stable and better over time. I guess that's worth something? Am looking to get the BQ16 myself for wireless backhaul.

    NextDNS CLI on Asus stock?

    Any updates on this midway through 2024? Does the latest Asus-WRT firmware allow to set up NextDNS without merlin, or is it the same as before, ie not possible?

    News RT-AC68U End of Life Announced by Asus

    yeah, but without firmware updates to fix performance, stability and security issues it's quite risky to use a "living dead" router stuck on the same firmware perpetually? same goes for every electronic with an OS connected to the web, no?
