I got a replacement sent to me from Amazon as the model sent had a manufacture date of 2017. The manufacture date of the one where the wifi died on me was also 2017.

Hi, what do you mean by wifi died?

I had a manufacture date of 2018 and the 2.4GHz chip died, now have a 2017.

Anyone know if there was or is issues with SIP passthrough or with VOIP?

Having few strange things happening on outgoing calls but aren’t consistant.

On build 460 for the moment with new modem.

I spoke with ASUS and have tested these options, seem to work OK for Putting DSL-AC88U into recovery mode (Rescue Mode) and for Clearing NVRAM, see below link DSL-AC88U Recovery Mode

 

Thanks, i contacted ASUS also and they said that in my situation it is a hardware fault the chip is dead, so got a refund and a new ASUS modem.

Thanks for getting that information.

I just dug out my DSL-AC88U and tried to get into recovery mode, without success, I will drop ASUS an email tonight and ask them if recovery mode works for DSL-AC88U and DSL-AC3100 and also ask them best way to clear NVRAM for this Broadcom model? I should hear back from them Monday

Alright thanks.

Should any lights be on when in recovery mode? when holding the reset button and powering on no lights come on at all, holding WPS and powering on doesn’t seem to do anything just boots normally.

EDIT: i also held the WPS for probably 5 minutes (till DSL synced) after it wasn’t rebooting when i was holding for 10 seconds and 30 seconds on several tries, doesn’t seem to be the method to clear nvram on this modem/router.

Try – press the reset button for 5 seconds while the router is on, or turn it on with the WPS button pressed, wait 10 secs, then release it. Either procedure should also clear nvram. I have not tried this myself so let us know if it works so I can create a sticky with it. Very unlikely to be hardware.

Thanks, yeh i did try holding the WPS button while turning on the modem as this clears nvram on ASUS routers but didn’t seem to do anything on the DSL AC3100, i also tried holding the reset button while turning it on, not sure what this did but it wouldn’t continue to boot until i turned the modem off and on again, was hoping to get into recovery mode because if i remember there is a clear nvram in recovery too, also did hold the reset button while modem on (factory reset?) not sure if this clears nvram?
