I still didn't flash latest firmware as I got lot of other work to do, and don't have time to set everything up from scratch. Can all of you that did flash confirm everything is working ok WLAN and links.

I can confirm that UPnP doesn't work properly...and this is serious, for those who use it like this.
Adaptive QoS doesn't work.
GameRadar Ping is broken.
Bandwidth Monitor has always been a mystery...in this case it doesn't work properly….but with the app is ok.

Ik heb de nieuwste firmware nog niet geflasht omdat ik nog veel ander werk te doen heb en geen tijd heb om alles helemaal opnieuw in te stellen. Kunnen jullie die wel geflasht hebben, bevestigen dat alles goed werkt (wifi en verbindingen).

Perfect

After a good month of testing this firmware, it has the following errors : (asus working on it)

(even after factory reset - reconfigure)

- Instant guard no longer working (vpn not connecting)
- Asus (vip) account login keeps disconnecting randomly so you have to login / bind your account over and over again. Quite annoying. Also disconnects remote features.

Feedback send , working on it .. and until now, no solution, yet.

Cheers

I've been also using firmware now for few weeks. Router was factory reset after flashed firmware and configured again. Few times I had to restart router because one random device that is in my home which was not turned on since router got flashed and reset to factory was unable to connect to my wifi. But all other devices connected and reconnected normally. So after restart that device instantly connected to wifi without any problem. It's kind of silly to restart router every time some device was unable to connect to wifi, don't know whats happening there. I tested on 2.4 and 5Ghz on both is same device connected but no internet.

Could you try to set you dns settings in the router to cloudflare or any other if already on CF ? 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 (google) and try again ?

I am already using 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8

Then the device you have trouble with has a dns flush problem. You said it connects but has no internet ? You don't happen to have any ubiquity switches in your network do you ?

No switch just my Asus connected to my ISP Nokia.

How come that device connects when I restart Asus ?

 

[FiloFx]

Numerous possibilities. Dhcp reservations going wrong, Wifi connecting at 2.4 fine but 5.0 connecting drops, 6Ghz band if any, etc.. but actually the easiest way to find out is going trough the LOGS. Check the logs for your device's mac address and see why it is registering at start but no longer later. You can find it under systemlog. That will tell you why.

Today one laptop that I didn't power for 3 weeks same thing happend. Connected no internet. I went into configuration but I didn't see that laptop under Client List.

It connect on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz but no internet. 6Ghz is disabled.

This never happend before this last firmware update.

 

[Thermaltake]

I fix it. Gateway was empty for some reason and end pool was only 20 I increase it to 199. But I don't have that much devices, but now it works.

Anyone else getting constant errors for

erp_monitor[5862]: hnd_get_phy_status: Temporarily Router cannot get the PHY() status..

almost every 10 seconds. Tried everything still getting it. Probably firmware bug or something.

Nope.
Are you having disconnections on any of your devices ? Sounds like a problematic ethernet cable issue somewhere (wild guess)

None of device is having disconnect issues. One cable is hand made but tested with cable tester and it's ok, all others are factory made cables.

Factory made doesn't necessarily mean that they're good and in working condition. A bend or if run in wall, even a scratch when pulled in a conduit can create issues.
I had a similar issue in the past, where a flat Cat6 cable went bad (people would step on it sometimes) and it would disconnect momentarily every few hours or so... had to see the less than a second of occurrence disconnect happen with my eyes to see the issue

I understand but no one can step on them, and I didn't get that message or I didn't notice it before flashing this latest firmware. I'll test again trying to disconnect one by one and see if problem stops at some point.

EDIT:
Turned off router for few minutes, and switch on off few times while it was unplugged to empty caps. And no more that error message, easy fix.

I noticed a strange situation:
I have four consoles:
Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PS5.
Previously, with the AX82U DSL, I got Open NAT on all of them (with UPnP enabled on the AX82U DSL).
Right now, I'm playing with the Xbox Series X...and I get moderate NAT.
The solution was to put IP in DMZ.
I'd like to point out that if I changed the port on the Xbox, I didn't get Open NAT.
The same thing happened if I deleted the Xbox's MAC address.

Another strange situation:
If I disable the firewall, I get Limited NAT!
All tests were done by restarting the router and Xbox after the various changes.

Could it be that UPnP isn't working properly?
Could it be that NAT isn't working in Full Cone NAT mode?
