    ^^ Pretty infuriating isn't it? Exactly what happened with me. 2nd one just completely up n died altogether. 3rd one has a mostly working 5G radio but it blinks of a couple times a week and comes back on hours / day later.

    ^^ yep, on my 3rd 88 now because the 5G radio sh*t the bed on the others. Insanely high failure rate.

    So which of the 8 ports are the highest performing ports? The first 4? Are they all just oversubscribed or is there an actual difference between certain ports?

    Well, this 3rd 88 of mine has a disappearing 5G radio. Same problem my original one had - unbelievable. Every 2-3 days...poof. No 5G network available.

    Ok, so I've been having some issues with the latest new 88 I bought from Amazon and I'm absolutely stumped. No matter the connection, wired or wireless, I am getting horrid download speeds. Typical is 280Mbps+ and whatever's plugged into this new 88 is anywhere from .5-50Mbps. I have...

    ^^ Well I disabled all the thing Merlin said to disable and within 12 hours, my 5G band completely disappeared. Total rerun of my last 88 that I sent in for warranty. I enabled everything back and have been going strong since.
