Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.9 is now available

[greengnome]

I'm running a TUF-AX5400 as AiMesh router and a TUF-AX3000 V2 as node. After updating firmware it was no longer possible to connect wifi clients to the node (but router still worked). Tried rebooting, fiddling with settings and factory default. Eventually rolled back to 388.8_4 again and the problem went away.

Client log said:

NetworkManager[1016]: <warn> [1756558420.7669] device (wlp54s0): Activation: (wifi) association took too long, failing activation
NetworkManager[1016]: <info> [1756558420.7670] device (wlp54s0): state change: config -> failed (reason 'ssid-not-found', sys-iface-state: 'man>
NetworkManager[1016]: <info> [1756558420.7673] manager: NetworkManager state is now DISCONNECTED
NetworkManager[1016]: <warn> [1756558420.7677] device (wlp54s0): Activation: failed for connection 'Auto networkname'

Tested with a number of different devices, none could connect.

Not familiar with the Gnuton releases, but 388.9 had issues mixed WPA 2&3 and gave me nightmares on have the nodes even with wired backhaul. If 388.9.2 is available best bet it use that release.
