Have just changed channel on my AC68U to 112 and wifi analyser agreed. Then 5 minutes later 5 ghz is on channel 36 according to wifi analyser. Latest firmware, still says 112 in the config. Anyone else?
 
Channel 112 is a DFS channel. If the router detects radar transmissions on that channel it must change to another channel.

112 is a DFS channel (52-144) so maybe the router moved you off it. You can avoid this by not using DFS channels.
