It is a hardware limitation.

Check my reply on the Asus thread.

Usj 1 here haven't get any upgrade then. Tried restarting everything. Lol

I didn't even restart any of my equipment. It is not required normally.

It is a backend change and it takes time to roll out.

Cook up a quick FAQ to prevent the overload of similar question.

What speed that I will be upgraded to?
No confirmation is provided as of now. Pending for announcement.
As of now, 100Mbps got upgraded to 500Mbps. 300Mbps got upgraded to 1000Mbps.

Why I am not upgraded yet?
Upgrade is conducted in phase, please wait for more announcement.

Why I am not getting the speed that I want?
Test it using a good CAT5E/CAT6 LAN cable as wireless signal is subjected to signal interference and degradation.

How to get good speed over wireless network?
Upgrade to a better wireless router. Consider a good wireless adapter as well.
Most phones and laptops in the market can only perform 500Mbps max and that is on super good condition.

The Archer C1200 can do 500Mbps over WiFi just fine as close distance.
DIR-850L is kinda weak, consider an upgrade.
As for all the older routers, upgrade them.

What router should I buy?
I suggest something at least AC1750 and above. TP-Link C7/C9/C3150 and Asus RT-AC66U/67U/68U/86U/88U

For more router related question, refer to this thread.

Correction though. 300 > 800Mbps, 500 > 1Gbps
*
Some people seem to get 1000Mbps.
I believe those getting 800Mbps is due to some bottleneck somewhere in their equipment.

Let's wait for official announcement.

The TP-Link Deco M9 Plus mesh wifi solution seems to be getting a lot of good reviews. Reportedly better than Asus Lyra.

Gonna check it out after the official announcement of the plan upgrades by Time. Time to retire my ac68u lol.

The firmware is definitely better.

But, it is really limited. It is totally sold out currently.
