What's your uptime with the new firmware? I've only managed less than 7 days on the previous firmware. Maybe can try the beta.. Sigh

Now i use 9460. I use some time scheduled services, so i can't use latest beta fw.

Recommends the use of the 2695 version, because this version contains the 5G SDK NEW

Thanks, I am using the beta 2695 now so will take few days to see if 5Ghz Wifi connection is better.

However, I do note that DDNS is not working like before. On previous FWs, I was able use the browser (from home) and access to xxx.asuscomm.com (xxx is DDNS that I've setup to run) and it will connect to my router with the router login page. Now it just sits there and eventually time out.. Not sure if I need to configure anything for this to work?

Every time I post about uptime my 5G goEs down haha! Woke up this morning and 5G light off again. Will need to reset when I'm home this evening

Anyone knows if this is a bug or??

On the latest Beta what is not working fine is traffic analyzer, ntp time update, and other stuff, but ddns is worling perfect for me so far. Every time I change my public IP this one updates it inmediatly.

Did you do a manual reset and then put the config manually (without using the .cfg file) after flashin the beta firm?

 

[Gymrat76]

I'll wait until the final version is out before I upgrade. Just reboot every week or so till then lol
