GT-BE98 PRO Stable Yet?

[NightOwl3261]

With the most current firmware December release is this model stable enough yet to consider for purchase. Or is it going to be a daily fight?

The latest Merlin alpha 2 firmware for the GT-BE98 PRO isn't perfect but isn't bad. GPL still seems to need some work and refining.

Only issue I am actually still struggling with is the 6GHz on my AiMesh nodes. In short my GT-AXE11000 node still doesn't appear to broadcast 6GHz for some reason. I even tried resetting and repairing it on the latest alpha; no difference.
(if you don't have 6GHz on an AiMesh node I doubt this would be a factor for you)

Also the IoT profile has some quirks. The default IoT network can be "flaky", and drop some devices with no obvious reason.
If that happens for a device; I usually configure the device to use a different SSID which seems to be a valid workaround for now.

Seems to be a lot of current reviews talking about random and excessive clients / IOT devices? Is that the current state of this model?

Sorry meant client DROPS

It is still in beta. Roll your dice if you have G.A.S.
