I was kind of paranoid of this router based on the reviews on hardware failures and the 5g network not working or disappearing altogether
-
Looked into it and the 5 GHz band is simply gone due to hardware failure
-
I'll buy again for the security features and performance in hopes this is an abnormal hardware failure.
-
I had to do some extensive research and found out that this is a common hardware failure which can happen on any of the bands
-
the unit/brand is plagued by hardware failures
-
I'm assuming it's a hardware failure as other people online have had this problem.
-
I am worried about the regular hardware failures, but otherwise happy with the RT-AC88U performance.
-
Very frustrating as I'm technology literate and have used an earlier model with similar firmware.
-
They will not give you a refund for the unit and will continue to send you a refurbished unit that is very likely to break as it seems these are hit or miss on hardware issues
-
Works as it is supposed to
-
The downside is that file transfers for my laptop to my multi homed NAS box (an 8 by Synology with network teaming) isn't as fast as with the Google OnHub that I pulled out to test this.
-
Using the smart connect rules, I was able to get the router to stabilize as long as I kept everything from connecting to the 5Ghz-1 (Lower) channel.
-
QoS and bandwidth manager works as it should
-
I'm really bummed as I was excited about this router and have had nothing but good things to say about ASUS from my experience with my old router
-
I asked for a warranty replacement instead because I have no other router, but they have to escalate it up and get it approved as that is not standard procedure
-
I've had high hopes of one day it may just start working as it should considering what I've paid for it
-
We have multiple clients attached, our labtop can finally work as it was designed
-
I will likely just write this POS router off as a loss, trash it, and buy a good Netgear or D-Link.
