ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.380.7266

[wouterv]

My rt-ac68u on 7266 has an uptime of 23 days and has never missed a beat.
I and the wife stream pay tv and use the internet about 18 hours a day.

Consistently get 95mbit down and 37mbit up.

Dynamic Ipv4 address and ipv6 /56 from ISP is working perfectly.

23 days only?

Not bad with the release date of 2017/02/14 in mind
WAN Connection type Automatic IP.
A mix of various 802.11n and 802.11ac clients.
A USB stick attached and Samba enabled for inhouse file transfers.
A random speedtest with a 802.11ac 1x1 Windows 10 client:

Did you do a factory reset after 7266 upgrade 39 days ago?

No (see the second post of this thread).

Thanks. I'm glad to hear someone is not having issues with 7266.
I'm still hesitant to upgrade my router.

23 days only?

Power was turned off a few weeks ago to install a power point, ruined my up time

I have devices like mobile phones and nas which likely keep my router busy enough that it will not sleep?
Maybe that is why I see no issue with this firmware.

A workaround that worked for me, until next firmware. Setup a load balancing WAN Port and use that. No connection losses, so far. 48 hours and counting.

Considering this might happen over night, what is the best way to determine that the WAN connecting dropped?
My RT-AC1900P has a traffic monitor, but it is unclear how that would show a dropped WAN connection.

The VW Version I was provided by ASUS Support was 3.0.0.4.380_4164-gcc3b748
For me the next FW version is 3.0.0.4.380_7378-g7a25649

Do we have any information on the stability of 7378?

Thanks in advance!
