2.4 ghz

Can anyone tell me what the most backward compatible 2.4GHz settings are for the Asus RT-BE88U router (Wireless->Professional in the web GUI) for devices that worked with WiFi 6 routers (Asus/Zyxel)? I know that it can work, because I randomly choose the correct settings, but I didn't write...

Hello everyone, I was renting a router from my ISP and decided to buy my own. I am connected to a 1gb fiber cable. I found some threads on a similar problem but couldn’t find a solution except contacting Asus support for warranty. So basically it works, I installed it and configured it to work...

I've just purchased the AX86U to replace my 68U which has served me well for many years, but I'm struggling to get my Kindle (7th gen) and Sony Android TV to connect to the 2.4GHz channel using WPA2. 2.4/WPA2 is working on an older iPad, a low end Galaxy and my laptop but I can't seem to get the...

RT-AC68U with Merlin 386.2_4. The issue starts appearing two or more builds earlier and still exists. I have two SSID configured on router: Name-2.4 and Name-5.0 for 2.4 and 5.0 GHz correspondingly. It is normal 2.0 becomes better with more walls in my house so my devices switch from 5.0 to 2.4...

I've just picked up a pair of XT8s and have updated them to the latest firmware (3.0.0.4.386_25790). I was surprised to find that my devices were using the 2.4GHz band as the backhaul - with a 1/3 bar connection. I rebooted and they were once again connected with a 3/3 bar connection on the...

Hi everybody, Randomly, every days, my 2.4Ghz clients no longer have internet access, when it tries to connect to the wifi network, it disappears and then reappears in my client list but does not stay connected. I have been looking for a solution on the forum for a long time (disabled Airtime...

Hi guys, The router is RT-AC86U (not able to change thread title) Here are my settings: 5G - Channel 20/40/80, Control Channel Auto - Max Speed 92 Mbps 2.4G - Channel 40, Control Channel Auto - Max Speed 3 Mbps I disabled USB 3.0 & WPS as I read somewhere this can cause some issues...

Main question: Given my below situation, is it best to use a second router connected to the main router via ethernet as the 2.4 GHz access point? Rationale: The RT-AC3100 is not the cheapest (or most expensive) router, so replacing it is not preferred. The 5 GHz and ethernet connections...

I was wondering if I can downgrade a guest network to Legacy while keeping N for main wifi. Why would I be interested in such a setup: I got LIFX bulbs that need legacy settings to not loose connectivity… Any ideas … thanks

Hey guys, First post here (done plenty of reading -- hopefully enough). Around 2 weeks ago I replaced my older RT-AC1900/AC68U router with a new AC2900/RT-AC86U router and immediately flashed the latest stock firmware followed by Merlin's latest (384.4_2). The behavior I encountered was...

So, there was a sale on ac88s recently, so I moved on up. Great machine, running latest Merlin 384.4 firmware. Significant other kept complaining about connectivity issues. Did a wifi scan from another device, and the 2.4 GHz SSID was not there. Hmmm, I was using the smart connect feature, so I...

Hi there, I have had the above router for around 3 months now and kept the stock Asus firmware with a few niggly issues. Apologies for the long post, here goes, I am doing all this from a MacBook. Every time I made a Wifi (or almost any other) change, the Asus would drop the Wifi and I would...
