RT-AC87U - Daily freezes, required power cycling to restore

Hello, I'm new here,
And I’m trying to resolve some network freezing problems on an Asus RT-AC87U router running firmware version 3.0.0.4.380_7743.

Our current situation:
In our office we have an Asus RT-AC87U router, connected to our Internet service provider's router via the WAN port (on the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet), and to a 24-ports gigabit ethernet switch to provide connectivity to our desktop PCs (on the 192.168.0.0/24 subnet).

The router gets its WAN IP from the ISP router...

Asus RT-ACRH17 thoughts

Hi, I was going to buy an Asus RT-AC66U_B1 but then saw the RT-ACRH17 was 10 cheaper but couldn't find barely any thoughts or comments on it. The only things I saw were that it maybe is much more capable than it's name and price imply. Figured I'd ask if I could save money and get a better machine.

I'm new to purchasing routers and this seemed like the place I could find someone who knew something about this particular router.

Thank you

I just bought a new TM-AC1900 from Amazon (new - not refurb) to use as a network bridge (maybe play with Ai Mesh). I can't for the life of me log in to the admin console though!

Basically http://cellspot.router/ or http://192.168.29.1 prompt me to enter username/password - admin/admin or admin/password are rejected (admin/password is written on the sticker on the back).

I've tried wired, wireless, static IP, chrome/firefox/edge, using my phone... same result...

RT-AC66U slow speeds with Merlin and Tomato

I just changed over from my local ISP's router to my own, a brand new AC66U. At the time of the changeover I did some tests and got my 100/100 that I'm supposed to. Went to lunch, came back, and now it's pretty much stuck around 20 down / 5 up. I've tried the latest Asus firmware , Merlin, and Tomato.

Tomato runs full speed but doesn't have any AC settings or settings for 5 GHZ. I've cleared the NVram, turned the acceleration toggle on/off with no success.

I have repeatably verified...

ASUS RT-AC68U Lumpy Admin Module

My router is at the current FW level (2.052 Updated : 2018/01/20 11:18)

Login from FIREFOX.

While I have a minor concern, I am reporting the issue in case it is more than trivial.

The performance of command module is extremely lumpy and appears to coincidental with the updates with respect to the INTEL chip problem.

Does anyone else have the same lumpy performance?

I am using router based VPN with service provided by VYPR vpn.

I have sometimes been able to actually connect using my iPhone or MacBook.

Apart from one instance where I had tried switching my phone...

Have any of you FORUM Gurus looked at using Entware on the ac-gt5300 router?

After trying in install Entware on usb media, with errors; Found that Asus has "/opt" defined in the stock code!@#!
Dang what a PITA. Is it possible to change the Entware install path or have Entware been hard coded to the /opt prefix?

"best" consumer router, Asus AC68U sucks, or is it just me? (crappy signal distances

Hi,
I recently upgraded from the AC66U to the AC68U (i should have read SNB's comparison of the AC68u to the netgear r7000 first). I was never impressed with the 66's ability to send the signal far distances, but i hoped that the 68U would be better. Thus far i've not been impressed with it too. I live in a two story single family home, built in 1980 (has standard sheetrock and not super thick building materials) in a neighborhood. My ISP is verizon FIOS and i have their good old actiontek...

Change lan port to wan port

Sorry if this has been asked before. I tried searching, but it won't search for 3 letter words like lan and wan.

I bought one of the T-mobile ac1900 routers and flashed to RT-AC68P. It worked fine until the wan port died. I bought a "real" RT-AC68P and it was working great. Both had a small area of my home with a weak signal. After reading about AiMesh, I flashed both to AiMesh firmware and set up the one with the bad wan port as the node. All working great.

I have a wired connection to...

Hi all,

TL;DR: I have a brand new RT-AC66U, that I am trying to firmware flash. It seemed to go right during the flashing, but now I can't access it at all. I've tried flashing it a number of times, with different firmwares, and I get the exact same error.

Here's what I do to flash it:
  • Reset NVRAM (hold wps while booting)
  • Boot into recovery (hold reset while booting)
  • Flash .trx using the restoration utility from Asus, over ethernet
  • Wait for it to reboot for a while as...

For a few months now I have had this random issue of my 2.4GHz SSID just disappearing. I was never able to really capture it myself since it either happened late when I was in bed or when I wasn't home.
UNTIL NOW!

I just so happen to be on my computer when it happened and I was able to capture the following ODD behavior.

I am currently running Merlin 380.64, but I have had this same exact issue on previous versions.

When logging into the router (hard wired connection) it seems very...
