Hello to All,

Fresh on this forum and also my first post.

I read this thread and against all this information I bough Asus DSL-AC88U as I was really impressed with my previous Asus router RT-AC68U.

On 88u the WiFi signal is definitely much better on my pc I gto Asus wifi card which allow for 1.3 Gb/s between pc and modem which is better than previous router where speed wasn’t even constant (same house and same configuration). While I can’t complain about 5 GHz network I have issues with 2.4 Ghz network, I was fighting for last few days and can’t get decent performance on it. Most stuff I turned off already (as suggested in this thread) and still when I do speed test on 2.4 Ghz it’s lot lower than on 5G, any tips on this?

Another thing is that when I switch from bt openreach modem to Asus for some reason I can see a lot of FEC errors at this time when Vdsl connection is up and running for 5 days 8h 30 min I have 7404781 Fec errors which I believe (by reading on different formu may delay positive action taken by DLM). I found a way to reduce these errors but to experiment I need fw with telnet option enabled. I asked Asus about this fw by feedback form through modem but so far after over a week there is no any response from them.

To @sentinel uk

Are you able to source latest fw ( I currently use v1.10.06 build591) with unlocked telnet.
