Have you changed the default IP address for this router? Can you try 192.168.50.1 as it is the default address of my RT-AC86U

nope...the router was my friend ...the seller agree to replace the router for him ...

Hi Guys, can someone show where is the language setting for AC86U?

I brought few 86U for AIMesh. Needs your kind guide to set language to English.

Thanks a lot.

You can click at the right upper corner to change it, red box shown below pic

It's at the top right corner of the router's GUI

Thanks a lot.

Try this, http://router.asus.com

same ...still cant connect

Have you plug the router direct to your PC, then check the default gateway IP address?

should send to RMA because already press the reset pin but still not working.

China is having a long public holidays start from today until 7th Oct. However, I was asked the customer service just now, my router was pending for delivery out because they are off for duty from 29th Sept until 2nd Oct 2018. My router will resume ship out at 3rd Oct 2018.

yes press the Reset pin and still not Working ...
send back for replace unit ..

This is a Malaysia set Asus router?

oversea ASUS but seller gave 3years warranty

china side should be fast , only our side a bit slow (sometimes)

anyone able to help to measure the height of ac86u please? (from bottom to the peak of the antenna when the antenna are position upright)

Tried googling many reviews and still can't find the max height of the router, thanks!

It is around 31.5 cm ...

thanks for the measurement....
guess putting it inside a cupboard is out, anyone try laying ac86 horizontally and tweaking antenna 90% vertically?

Not advisable
RT-AC68U and RT-AC86U is quite hot
Putting it in a cubpboard will cause the router to overheat

I was just received my Asus RT-AC86U today. So surprised for the speed performance. Just can describe my old RT-AC55UHP really can't fight with this beast.
It was my first time to use that powerful router. OK, for those guy who are using RT-AC55UHP here. Indeed, this router (RT-AC55UHP) only can reach maximum 300~320mbps on wired. My Unifi package is 500mbps turbo. Yes, this is about your router problem but not Unifi problem. So for those user here, if you are still using RT-AC55UHP and your home have any fiber broadband connection with more than 300mbps speed. Please upgrade your router as soon as possible. This is my advice.

One more thing I like to confirm in here, this router RT-AC86U (China Version) is using the same DC adapter with RT-AC68U. So you guys can buy the size 4.4*1.35mm from shopee, lazada or lelong.

This is my new router, RT-AC86U.










This is official Asus firmware, I did not flash to Merlin custom firmware. Fully support Unifi without problem.
