Hi asusmy,

Would like to check with you the problem im facing on my printer on share printer feature on ac-rt66u.
I connected my printer thru router usb port using canon mg5570. I seldom switch on my printer. Only switched it on when i need to use printing. I found out that the router detected the printer but in my pc network connected using lan cable showing my printer is in offline or grey out icon.
Therefore the solution im currently doing is to reboot the router so that the printer to be able to print and the icon is not grey out anymore after rebooting router.

Hi ASUSmy,

Where i could buy asus powerline adaptor as stated below in klang valley?

PL-X51P/PL-X52P 500 Mbps 4 Gigabit ports powerline adapter kit

sad. today suddenly my ac-rt66u shutdown itself. scaring shit out of me. i tot the router is burnt or power adapter spoil since i checked no led lit.

after few step troubleshoot, found out the power button mechanical failure and the spring forced the switch into permanent switched off position.

luckily youtube user also encounter this problem and look like its common issue since N66u model. the power button switch is the tradisional mechanical hook design and its design prone is over the time/ frequent usage will caused the hook out of position or plastic hook holder chipped off.

before modified the switch (the blue color mechanical switch is the power button)



after i removed the spring and put the switch into permanent switched ON position.


this router serving me since APR 2014.

Hi @ASUSmy,

i tried and detected the printer at router page but unable to use as print server on window 7.

Hi ASUSmy,

Printer is ok now after i install the printer ez printer sharing application.

Hi. I need some some advise here.

I have ac86u as main, ac68u or 66u as a repeater.
Both repeater connected to ac86u thru 5ghz.

Somehow my xiaomi a1 keep getting wifi signal disconnection every 30sec once connected to repeater ssid or main unit ssid.

IOS phone no such issue. Only happened on xiaomi a1.

Not thay i donu about aimesh. Ac66u no aimesh. 68u is on merlin. Dont ask me to revert to global fw for ac68u. Its cant be revert to global fw.
