    Bricked AC68U when upgrading firmware to 386.5

    Today I tried to update the firmware on my AC68U to 386.5 and when it finished it told me to finish by manually rebooting my router. This was strange, as I don't think I've ever seen that before when upgrading firmware. I turned it off/on, and now it seems to be bricked. I've tried a factory...

    I have a 2018 RT-AC86U, working flawlessly then bricked, out of the blue with only port 4 dimly lit. Doing research I see this is a known issue. I am OOW and Asus quoted me $130 for repair. I only paid $100 for it brand new with some serious Newegg promos. I put my $130 toward a RT-AX86U that I...

    Hello, all, this is my first post in this forum. I read a lot of threads about my issue with no success at all. First, I'm a happy user of an AC87U model, running Merlin firmware well for years.

    I've been running ASUS routers for years, and although I'm not expert I've always liked them as I've always been able to recover them from any problem I have had along the way. The hardware has always been reliable which is why I grew into the AiMesh network approach as I moved house and just...
