There's nothing for RT-AC56U, beta or stable. Actually I haven't seen ANYTHING firmware related for this model for 2 months now.

It would help greatly if you cleaned up the SUBJECT line to be more specific, opposed to a generic "new firmware released" title................

 

[Slamb]

and what about some update for N routers?

 

[RMerlin]

and what about some update for N routers?

Patience. They can't update 32 different models within a week.

That's the price to pay for having the manufacturer support so many different models for so long.

 

[RMerlin]

They did update the RT-N18U too, BTW.

 

[Slamb]

latest for RT-N56U available is from april, so quite a long time

Considering this model is 5 years old, having any update at all this year is already impressive. The norm with most manufacturers is to stop issuing updates after 2 or 3 years.

They are spending a lot of time working on Broadcom-based models lately, so I would expect those Ralink-based models to be updated less frequently, especially considering their age (they require separate work from the rest).

The biggest hurdle with this model is the fact it's a Ralink model, not that it's an N model.

The First one was updated before the Asus firmware link. it's from this link http://support.asus.com/ServiceHome.aspx?SLanguage=en I fond this new firmware Version 3.0.0.4.378.9135 there. The other web page was still not updated.

I corrected the first link, the 2 other link was correct.

I see, I was always checking the official product page and going to the support section from there. Anyway I have to wait for Merlin to update his code and he has to wait for ASUS to release said code, as I need his firmware due to the customizations I use.

 

[majnu]

hello

is this f/w based on this one?
http://www.snbforums.com/threads/beta-rt-ac66u_3-0-0-4_378_8671.27049/

This has been absolutely great for me and I'm hesitant to update in case I lose my wireless range and signal strength I am currently getting.

This firmware the 3.0.0.4.378_9135 is the latest firmware from Asus. it's not base on Merlin firmware, the latest from Merlin is the 378.55 based on the *3.0.0.4.378_4980. Merlin is presently working on a new firmware the 378.56 beta 1, but I don't know on which Asus firmware it's based.
