These are the last 3 events the modem picked up not much to go on: 8/3/2025 09:57:23 6 DS profile assignment change. DS Chan ID: 32; Previous Profile: ; New Profile: 1 2 3.;CM-MAC=##:##:0a:78:b0:##;CMTS-MAC=00:01:5c:8e:##:##;CM-QOS=1.1;CM-VER=3.1; 11/3/2025 17:24:57 5 TEK Invalid -...

I have the AC86U logs - it has several instances of the: "WAN_Connection: WAN was restored." between 10.55-11.11 each day -

I have a RT-AC86U on Merlin that has been bullet proof supported by backup UPS connected to Xfinity. After our last ICE Storm where Xfinity was down for a couple of hours due to power local power outages we started noticing the Xfinity broadband goes down same time every day (~11PM). Asking...

🤔 No Wifi repeater. Just a bunch of IoT light switches, plugs, water sensors, Ring/Wyze cams on 2.4 predominantly. Work laptops & mobile devices (phone tablets) on 5Ghz. When wireless reached the temporary full status, the Ethernet dependent devices (TiVo, Smart TV's, desktop PC) still...

I'll take a look when I get home from work but doubt it will still be there from yesterday. Do u know if there's a setting on the Asus 86-series routers (Merlin) to alter max # of devices?

It's pretty much split 65/35 % (out of 60) between 2.4 & 5 GHz. Only thing different in the last 3 years of owning this is I added a Water Sensor hub (running 5 sensors) to a network switch I had. Else, with family & guests visiting have had it up into the 70's with no issues.

I have a RT-AC86U (on Merlin v_ 386.11) & today the wireless devices that were part of my 60 devices ecosystem were rendered inoperable by an "Access Point Temporarily Full" message (saw it on my cell phone). Everything was off-line except for my hard wired connect (to router) desktop PC. But...

I had 2 techs from Comcast come out on diff occasions & all signal & lines were optimal to reference quality LOL. So yes, line, connection & signal checks were part of both visits. To me this was Moto rolling out a firmware based on Comcast specs & Comcast probably didn't do any QC on their...

Hey - just getting back to this. Very frustrated that Moto & Comcast couldn't sort it out, so I had to buy another modem (Arris S33) since Comcast was not going to own up to anything & the 2 techs they sent out said my signal from the corner drop to my house was the last on the street - so pipe...

Did you ever get this resolved? Which ISP did you work with? A bunch of us are having issues with the MB8611 Modem on Xfinity starting in December & more so frequently now (~1x per 30 mins in some instances). But no one on either side is owning up to the issue even after the modem has been...

Am new to reviewing the log. What can I post here to get some feedback on this issue: Once a day, my WiFi - for now the 5Ghz band - loses connection during the most inoppotune time usually a work WebEx call. It will then pop online again without really any drama except my WexEx participation is...

I was fooling around with my QoS tab & the cusotmize hierarchy option in the latest Merlin. Decided to flip over to the Game tab & see what's happening there & noticed Game Device Prioritizing was turned on. So I flipped that off since I don't game & wanted to make sure media streaming was a...

So when I last updated Merlin to 386.2_2, also took the opprtunity to change the admin username. Of course, i didnt write it down either correctly or whatever. Now I can't log-in to my AC86U router. Is resetting back to factory the only way to get back in?

Thank you again Colin (&John). You make it sound so simple!

Ahhh - yes - it appeared that John9527 was epousing manually assigning a constant ip address for each of my client. But upon re-reading John9527's statement it now looks as though the DHCP issued ip address don't change that much if at all - true?
