    RT-AC86U (on Merlin) "Access Point Temporarily Full" Issue?

    🤔 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...

    RT-AC86U (on Merlin) "Access Point Temporarily Full" Issue?

    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?

    RT-AC86U (on Merlin) "Access Point Temporarily Full" Issue?

    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.

    RT-AC86U (on Merlin) "Access Point Temporarily Full" Issue?

    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...

    386.7 Internet Dropping every few days/weeks

    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...

    386.7 Internet Dropping every few days/weeks

    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...

    386.7 Internet Dropping every few days/weeks

    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...

    Troubleshoot help please: Wifi drops once a day

    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...

    Mobile Game Mode in App

    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...

    Forgot Username on Merlin 386.2_2

    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?

    Manually Assigned IP Address not Same on Client List after Merlin 386.1_2

    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?

    Manually Assigned IP Address not Same on Client List after Merlin 386.1_2

    Yeah that is my quandry: I have basically refurbed my entire house with those WiFi smart switches which need a stable connection.

    Manually Assigned IP Address not Same on Client List after Merlin 386.1_2

    Is there any benefits to me continuing to ocd over assigning all my clients a specific ip address? My clients are mostly smart switches/Alexas/Wifi cams/Tivo's. Latter is using MoCa connection. Else - Not really sharing any devices on the network like file server. Except occassionally using PC...
