    Intermittent Partial Lockup of AX86U

    So I'm running 388.4 on an RT-AX86U, though this behavior dates back at least two prior firmware versions. I have 12 wired devices, 23 mostly IoT devices on 2.4G and maybe 5 or so 5G devices. Every 10 days to 2 weeks, I have a "partial lockup" of the wireless router where devices show as...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Yes, I've seen it here on an AX-86U. Reboot didn't fix, what did was selecting manually a control channel. It had been on "Auto." Hasn't come back after at least one month +.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.4 is now available

    Look under "Wireless", then "Professional" and you will find these settings. "MCS 7" is under "Modulation settings." By "lowest common denominator" I mean "without advanced settings enabled". This worked for me and is intended as a confirmation of the contents of RMerlins post which it directly...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.4 is now available

    Just to confirm, I used to have problems with many of my iOT devices on 2.4G. Finally one day I went in and changed that band to "lowest common denominator" - no beamforming, no Airtime fairness, only MCS 7, etc, etc - and I haven't had issues with devices dropping offline since.

    Why no new Merlin firmware?

    I don't think this is accurate. My understanding is that RMerlin has not received all the GPLs for the different router models. The alphas are not part of this process. Someone please jump in if this is incorrect.

    Dual WAN routing rules not working

    I doubt this - I haven't seen a single "works fine here" post on this topic despite this being an extremely common response to posts on other issues.

    Help With Dual WAN in Load Balancing Mode

    I'm running 386.3_2 on an RT-AX86U. So I'm trying to operate as "load balanced" while having 4 specific devices always go through WAN 2. I check which WAN is in use by running a speed test and checking the servers used. I thought I had everything working then added the 4th device and bang! now...

    YazDHCP: Can I use when upgrading AC86U to AX86U?

    Yes, I know I'm being lazy here, but I wonder if I can export the DHCP reservation list from my ac86 and then import it on my new ax86 to save a lot of time in moving everything over to the new box. Thanks in advance!
