1. Adaptive QoS | Internet Speed
* Tap GO
* Error message: Notice - Failed to complete the Internet speed test . Please check your internet status at Network Map
* Network Map shows - Internet Status: Connected

2. Wireless | Wifi Radar

* 404 Not Found - url: http://router.asus.com/WiFi_Insight.asp
* Note: Navigating directly to these Wifi Radar linked pages works fine: http://router.asus.com/visindex.asp OR http://router.asus.com/channelcapacity.asp

3. Wireless | General
* Check ON "Enable 160 Mhz" then Apply will not remain checked after page refresh.
* Selecting Channel Bandwidth 160 Mhz then Apply will not remain as 160 Mhz but will return to 20/40/80 Mhz
* Router is incapable of selecting and using 160 Mhz channel bandwidth.
* Note: The official firmware works fine for all of the above

4. LAN | DHCP Server | Manually Assigned IP

* The selected local image will not change the default router icon. Only the built-in router icons can be used.

Update: I opened some Git Issues.

Empty your browser cache, reset the router after you update the firmware and format the jffs partition should take care of your issues.
 
2) and 3) are probably related to the build profile being out of sync with upstream. I've resynced most models last week, I haven't had time to do it for the GT-AC2900 yet.

Sorry, does this mean that we should dowload FW 386.1 again and reflash, or it is for new 386.2 alpha?

It means you will have to wait for a release that contains the fixes.
 
Thank you for the clarification. The word "resynced"misleaded me.

That was meant at the code level. My repo was missing some of the options that were set in Asus's own code, so I went through each build profiles to make sure they were the same as in Asus's GPL, adding the missing ones.
 
All listed bugs above have been resolved in the latest pre-beta GT-AC2900_386.2_alpha1-g18f27b0693. Thank you.
