Nice to see an update after 2.5 months, but 386_RC2 firmware is doing brilliantly here since 10 days. Once you install that and get used to new Aimesh 2.0 and support for 802.11k/v, there is no going back.

Would you dare to say your wireless clients are roaming faster... more seamless?

After upgrade to this new firmware, my node - RT-AX92U will be deauthenticated and authenticate again hourly.

I installed this update and I regularly lost the internet connection; the connection is lost after some (short) undetermined time and also ALWAYS after a reboot there is no internet connection.

Only after unplugging and re-inserting the wan network-cable is internet restored.

I have now downgraded to the previous firmware and this fixed the problem immediately.

Give them time, takes a day or two for new downloads to fully propagate through their server farms.

Sure enough, it's under the BIOS listing now.

 
Did anybody see any difference in the 2.4Ghz band wifi radio power? Any improvement in the signal strength or coverage?
