    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.46061 (2022/01/14)

    I updated to the latest FW and I've had absolutely no issues so far. Even my Neat thermostat hasn't "lost connection" so far, normally my nest thermostat would say "offline" all the time and I'd have to physically use the thermostat to set the heat/AC. Fingers crossed that this has been fixed...

    ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 9.0.0.4.386.46980 (2022/02/22)

    That's great news about the nest. I'll update over the weekend and report how my nest and other IoT devices behave. Fingers crossed this is the end of the nest problems.

    No 160mhz bandwidth in Canada?

    So this goes back to me thinking it's a Country/Region restriction.

    No 160mhz bandwidth in Canada?

    But what does this mean near the bottom, I see 160Mhz. Does that mean it's there but not accessible? SSID: "WackyCards-5G2" noise: -88 dBm Channel: 149/80 BSSID: 3C:7C:3F:65:A0:38 Capability: ESS RRM Supported Rates: [ 6(b) 9 12 18 24(b) 36 48 54 ] HE Capable: Chanspec: 5GHz channel 155 80MHz...

    No 160mhz bandwidth in Canada?

    First of all thank you for the detailed reply and all this information really appreciate it. I might try the factory reset and changing the operation mode to the mixed mode you suggested. I changed to wired backhaul to free up the 5Ghz-2 band (Previously the wireless backhaul) so I could use...

    No 160mhz bandwidth in Canada?

    Saw this under the wireless log for the 5Ghz-2 radio near the end of the log. I see mention of 160Mhz. Not sure what any of that means. SSID: "WackyCards" noise: -91 dBm Channel: 3 BSSID: 3C:7C:3F:65:A0:30 Capability: ESS ShortSlot RRM Supported Rates: [ 1(b) 2(b) 5.5(b) 6 9 11(b) 12 18...

    No 160mhz bandwidth in Canada?

    No I don't see the option for 5Ghz-1. I was under the impression after I went to a wired backhaul setup, that opening up the 5Ghz-2 band and I would be able to use the 5Ghz-2 at 160Mhz.

    No 160mhz bandwidth in Canada?

    I don't see any option under the 5 Ghz -2 to enable 160Mhz. I've seen people post pictures with a checkbox next to the Channel Bandwidth to enable it. I'm only seeing 20/40/80 Mhz. My max link speed on my phone or laptop which are both WIFI 6 is 1200Mbps.

    No 160mhz bandwidth in Canada?

    So I just finished chatting with Asus support and I found out that the 160Mhz bandwidth is disabled in Canada. I have a Asus ZenWifi AX6600 XT8 with 1 node, wired backhaul and using Firmware Version:3.0.0.4.386_45934 The support rep told me that if and when Canada does allow WIFI 6 160mhz band...

    Asus XT8 (AX6600) 160MHz Client Channel Provision

    So I just realized I don't see the "Enable 160mhz" setting in my Asus XT8. I'm in Canada running Firmware Version:3.0.0.4.386_45934, with wired backhaul and router + 1 node. Maybe I'm missing a setting or something. Not sure.. I thought it was because I was in Canada, but even on the Asus...

    New Asus ZenWifi XT8 Firmware (Version 3.0.0.4.386.46061 2022/01/14 )

    I just saw a new FW has been released on my router. I read over the release description on Asus and it has a bunch of security fixes. Has anyone tried it out yet? I might pull the trigger tonight and see how it goes. If anyone has updated can you post if you've run into any issues or noticed...

    Resting the Nest? I've done a router reset and the issue was still happening.

    asus zenwifi xt8 + latest firmware + nest 3rd gen learning thermostat offline off and on?

    Update: So yesterday my Nest thermostat went offline 4 times throughout the day/evening. Either I'm having bad luck with the disconnects or it's gotten worse. Rebooting the Nest resolves the issue. Today if it happens I'll try rebooting the router to see if that also fixes the Nest Thermostat...
