    2.4Ghz and 5Ghz connection inconsistent with smart connect rules.

    I have some problems with my 2.4GHz and 5Ghz bands. It seems that the smart connect rules do not help at all the clients roaming between the 2.4GHz and 5Ghz bands. I have one main router and two aiMesh nodes. The mesh nodes have the standard ASUS firmware, whereas the main router as the merlin...

    2.4GHz network stops with RT-AX56U as Mesh Node

    I have just upgraded my AC68U to a AX56U, all seemed to work fine at first, but then I find that a number of 2.4GHz devices can no longer connect to the internet. My original configuration has a AX88U as the main router and the AC68U as the node which worked fine, swapping the old AC68U back...

    Devices preferentially connect to 2.4GHz band suddenly

    Dear Friends, I have an odd problem all of a sudden. Earlier most of my devices, most of which are new, were connecting to the 5GHz band by default. Suddenly, and I can't pinpoint what exactly caused this, but now many of them prefer to connect to the 2.4GHz band. Don't know why. After that I...

    [AC88U, 384.15] 2.4GHz WiFi channel setting is not respected

    I had the channel set auto for 2.4GHz on ac88U, 384.15 release. And it picked 8 as optimal which was no optimal it should be either 1 or 10/11. But whenever I set the channel manually it goes to channel 2, I verified that with wifi analyzer on my phone.

    RT-AC86U no traffic on 2.4GHz interface

    Experiencing a very strange issue with my RT-AC86U. Everything works great via the 5GHz radio (eth6), but when a device connects to the 2.4GHz radio (eth5), no traffic is routed. The most I see in the logs is that the client associates with the STA, a DHCPOFFER is sent, but no communication ever...

    Firmware Version: 384.6 (AC86U) For the past few days, the 2.4Ghz wireless band has been dropping/losing connection to the connected devices: however the 5Ghz band remains stable. 2.4Ghz gets ultimately slow, to a point where it's non-usable. It then requires a reboot to start working as it...

    Asus RT-AC87U vs RT-AC88U wireless distance

    I am currently using an Asus RT-AC87U. There is a guest room that is separated from the house by 3 walls and the wireless strength is not strong enough. Tried with multiple devices; some points of the room (closer to the door and my router) the signal is strong enough even to play a YouTube...
