Hi all,

This is Paige, colleague of Wilson D. and Arthur L., from ASUSTek.
Here is the RT-AX88U beta FW(based on 9.0.0.4.384 branch) supporting WAN Aggregation.
For 1st time users, you can set up WAN Aggregation by following the steps in the setup SOP document.

Thanks.

My ISP require all packets to be tagged with VLAN 35, will this firmware tag all internet packets with VLAN 35 on both interference or just main internet port on router?

lol, I never sawWAN aggregation being mentioned in ASUS's marketing materials for AX routers, is that why you are going under the table to share it with users? Too much trouble getting this release via official channels?

Asus has frequently added new features to already released routers (AiMesh is the most recent example), nothing to do with existing marketing material there. They are simply providing a beta release for test purposes before determining if it works well enough to add to the official firmware. Once (and if) they do, it will probably be added to the marketing information for targeted models.

Comcast just updated the Arris SB8200 firmware. The web interface has a new Advanced tab where Link Aggregation can be enabled.
Code:
Link Aggregation Configuration

NOTE: Ethernet Link Aggregation applies to various methods of combining (aggregating) multiple network connections in parallel in order to increase throughput beyond what a single connection could sustain, and to provide redundancy in case one of the links should fail.

Now it make a no brainer for me between NETGEAR AX8 and AX88U since they will all support WAN aggregation and I am very excited because I recently bought a NETGEAR CM1100 that supports link aggregation! Do you know if WAN aggregation will come to AX11000?

Unsticking since the feature is now available in a public release.
