Good Day,
I am new to this forum, this is my 1st post.

My new Asus RT-AC55UHP is working fine since bought, but recently the LED light of 5GHz become dim and from 45 degree angle , can't see the light at all, but when connected to mobile phone is working.

May I know , is there something went wrong or some faulty issue might arise soon as a signal ?

p/s: I went and check the router website, the firmware update not there (only 3 utilities software ), is there any new firmware ?

On Win7 64bits.

Thx

thx , I will go "Others" and check.

then it make sense to under "others" , cause is universal. But , when ppl looking for f/w with pull down menu, sure they will select the OS that using. Right ? haha

yes, I edited previous post with additional "p/s" where I can dl oredi.
but , do you have link to teach how to install new f/w ? after new f/w, do I need to re-config with ID, password etc ??

thx

GOOD, thanks a lot.
Last question : after new f/w, do I need to re-config with ID, password etc ??
if yes, then I need to dig out the ID and Password, before start update.

install latest f/w provoded, LED light for wifi 5GHz still the same (dim) ; but connection working fine.

Dear all,

Few question to ask, hope can get help.

May I know shall I use :
1. WPA2-Personal + AES or
2. WPA-Auto-Personal + TKIP/AES ?

Should I "Enable QoS" ?

Should I use Google DNS or Open DNS, will this slow down my UniFi ?


thx

At the moment, still can use....if just the LED light is faulty and not causing connection issue, then I will continue using it unless it cause the connection drop.

thanks.

I read Asus Router specs that it comes with VPN, do we need VPN ?

Dear @ASUSmy, now my 5GHz LED light is totally off !
shall I send in for service or warranty claim ?

thx,

p/s: where shall I send to ?

yes, it is gigabit router

yes, been few months using it, so far so good...but as you scroll up and read , you will find that I mentioned my 5GHz LED light was faulty recently....

ASUSmy asked me to go back where I bought and claim warranty.
Currently using UniFi VIP10

RT-AC68U is better one than rt-ac55uhp
