Thanks UK Sentinel,
Well after spending far to much time than it’s worth the unit is now retired to land fill.
Debugging firmware didn’t work so I opened up the box and the heat sink had lifted away from the PCB. Obviously heat damage to one of the components causing the problem.
Sometimes it’s just better to open up and take a look 👀
I will still be around the forums as given my VPN needs I cannot find an alternative to the RT-AC88U even though I’m disappointed with the short lifespan & support of the DSL-AC88U
