    All 5Ghz Channels for RT-AC66U with Merlin

    Hi. I successfully uploaded the latest Merlin firmware for my RT-AC66U but I thought that all of the 5Ghz channels would appear in the pick list. Is there a version of the firmware that allows for this?

    My laptop doesn't like 5ghz wifi now?

    Okay so I have an Asus G750JM ROG laptop and all of the sudden today it was acting very slow on my 5ghz wifi. I couldn't even get into my router page. I thought it was my modem and router being bad but when I switched it to the 2ghz wifi everything was fine. I power cycled my modem and router to...

    RT-AC68U firmware 3.0.0.4.382.18547 slows down 5Ghz Wireless.

    Hi my router updated today to the new 3.0.0.4.382.18547 firmware version, however this firmware caused the 5Ghz wifi to drop back to 20Mhz wide channels causing the devices to connect to the router at 1/4 of the speed as before. I tried factory restore and recovery mode NVRAM reset and...

    RT-AC5300 5GHZ suddenly much slower

    Hi everyone, I was going to log in to my RT-AC5300 a while back but the GUI was all broken and really slow. There was a lot of missing graphics and some menus were blank. I managed to click my way to the menu where you can reset the router to factory default. So I did a factory default. After...

    Best Router for WiFi Gaming

    I'm in a situation with temporary housing where I am flatting, and can't really expect to be able to connect an ethernet cable from my PC to the router, especially when the room im renting is at the opposite end of the house. So I need to use WiFi, which isn't good for gaming, but will buy a...

    RT-AC88U 5Ghz disappears after each firmware update

    I bought this late last year. After every firmware update (which is successful), the router and 2.4Ghz networks work fine, the 5Ghz network for some reason says it's working but the network isn't broadcast. I've been able to downgrade to an older firmware version and get it working each time. I...

    TX Bursting on 5GHz ac

    I have an AC66U B1 with the latest Merlin firmware. By enabling Tx Bursting, I get my speed increases from 250Mbps to 310Mbps. I am connected to the 5Ghz band on ac. I have seen that Tx Bursting affects only g and a. So what's happening here?

    RT-N66U 5ghz drops randomly

    The 5ghz AP disappears for a random time. Guest networks and 2.4ghz are not affected. I checked with my phone and wifi analyzer when the 5ghz disappears its completely not visible under any channel of the 5ghz range. I had this with the original Asus firmware and with Merlins. I've reset my...

    Can no longer use any channels in Band A UNI-II Lower

    When I first got the AC66U_B1 router, I noticed that the 5GHz signal takes a long time before any of my devices can detect it. A member here suggested I should use channel 36 as channel 36 is not a DFS channel. That simple trick worked. However, today none of my devices were able to detect the...

    Asuswrt-Merlin RT-AC87R

    I noticed that when configuring the 5 Ghz guest wifi the users are able to scan the internal network and can ping internal nodes. Used IP Network Scanner (Lite) on IPAD Pro to test. I validated that on the Guest Network configuration, Access Intranet is set to OFF on the 5 Ghz. network. Is...

    DSL-AC56U drops 5Ghz connections

    I saw someone else had a similar problem to this with USB connection and got no reponses. I have had this problem with two dsl-AC56U routers (I had the first one replaced). The wireless drops the 5Ghz connections. When you look for available networks, it usually takes a few seconds to become...

    Dir-822 vs Dir-823 (and where on Earth is Dir-823)

    Hi guys So I'm contemplating buying either the dir 822 or the 823 from d-link... both fairly inexpensive, at least on aliexpress (at about 30 usd) and both AC1200 routers, which is good. I actually don't need them for their ac compliance but more for that fact they are cheap and transmit 5ghz...

    ZyXel DCS (dynamic channel selection) and DFS

    My ZyXel NWA3560-N WAP has an optional feature that it terms DCS (dynamic channel selection) which is supposed to change the channels in use periodically in order to find the ones with the lowest interference. It appears as if this applies to both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios, and is either on or...
