I have noticed that a lot of the routers have gotten a firmware update lately but it does not seem to be the case for AC86U. Any one here know if it will get an update any time soon?

@arthurlien: I have still the issue that after apply channel settings are NOT CHANGED at all.
Have to reboot or disable/enable one Wifi 2G or 5G to have it set according to what is shown.
When will this be solved for RT-AC86U at least issue in my china-version with changeable region setting.

Furthermore: Using Aimesh with ethernet backhaul running in AP mode and node set to AUTO but only uses WiFi-connection, must be set to ethernet to run backhaul via wire.
If there exists a LAN-connection it must be used prefered in AUTO-mode!


AiMesh with 68U as node on 20942 working, did a factory reset and nothing else, just power on node and wait to be found on 86U for connecting.

Guest-SSID still not supported on nodes but can be hidden on parent-86U now with this release ...
USB-ports on node not supported too!
