    AX86U on 386.7_2: Wireless falling back to 80MHz even if I set 160MHz?

    I just noticed that on the newest 386.7_2 firmware, if I set 160MHz on the 5GHz band, it will initially use 160MHz but later reduce to 80MHz (I'm seeing this using WiFi Explorer on macOS). I know 160MHz is 99% unnecessary, I just want to know if this is the intended behavior with this new...

    AX86U: 160MHz @ channel 100+ possible?

    Hi all, I've had my AX86U for almost half a year and I'm happy with it. But due to all my neighbor's wireless are all operating on channel 32-64 and 149+, I have to use channel 100-140. The problem is if I select 160Hz mode, I can only select channel 32-64. My unit is Canada version and have the...

    Solved GT-AX6000 - Control Channel Auto issues

    So while evaluating an RT-AX89X to go with my new 2 gig Internet service, I am also trying out a GT-AX6000 and noticed an issue. When I set the bandwidth to 20/40/80/160 and have the Control Channel on Auto, it will not go into 160MHz mode. It sets the channel on 153 or 157 usually and stays...

    A 160Mhz router to go with my Intel AC 9260?

    Hi. I'm currently using an Asus RT-AC68U but it's giving me all kinds of troubles. It's ancient by now and I can barely get 10MB/s local network speeds over it and the Wifi is constantly dropping out so I'd say it's really on the way out as the performance has dropped dramatically in the last 6...
