    Any known issues regarding AC2900/RT-AC86U 2.4 GHz radio malfunction?

    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...

    [RT-AC86U] Potentially broken, wish to try and fix it before I send it back.

    So, I just got one of these, and I liked what it has to offer overall, except, after about 24 hours on, I go to work and my roommate tells me that he no longer has WiFi, and when I get home, I notice that it constantly restarts and cannot stay on. I boiled down the issue to be firmware related...

    Unable to change Clients Name

    Searched and found no relevant discussion. Previously, I've been able to successfully rename my clients from their mac address to a more user-friendly name. This is done from the main router page (router.asus.com/index.asp) by clicking on the 'View List' button, then setting the cursor's focus...

    Asuswrt-Merlin and RT-AC2900, supported?

    Hi, I'm upgrading my router and have been looking at the RT-AC86U. Unfortunally the RT-AC86U is hard to come by now, so I found an RT-AC2900 instead. As I understand the RT-AC2900 is identical with just another name for marketing purposes, but my question is if the Asuswrt-Merlin version still...
