Just noticed this on the ASUS website but yet to flash, anyone done so yet and if so what are your thoughts?

Good spot! No not yet as the benefits are a bit ambiguous. I'll probably wait for the Merlin Release based on this ASUS core - doing that will provide another input/QA on how robust the ASUS version actually is.

I'm not releasing any further firmware based on the 384 code. The code base is too fragmented, I can't compile images for more than one or two models at one point in time.

Why would they bother with 384 code on one of their newer models?

Because 386 is still in beta, and they felt that these fixes were important enough to release now.

Agreed. I installed this update because I was having some sporadic connectivity issues with nest hello, nest protect, and occasionally some intel based laptops (HP and Dell). It's been about 24 hours, and things seem more stable.

Hi everybody. Is this 9579 stock firmware (still the latest available) stable, with decent 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz range? Seems odd that the earlier RT-AC88U firmware is on 385, but this newer model is on 384. I assume there won't be a stock 385 for the AX, but that it will go to 386?
