Give me the good/bad/ugly on the Asus RT-BE86U

I replaced my ancient AC-68U with an ASUS RT-BE86U and in the mean time, sent it back. Either for repair or for a refund. For a device that is about 12 years newer, it was just awful.

Reason why router needs more frequent rebooting for some devices to connect?

I have two RT-AC68u routers and I eventually had to auto schedule weekly reboots because of that. No matter how many updates Asus came out with, it never got better. I finally switched to opnsense for a router this year and use my AC68u in AP mode for wireless and now I don't have to do reboots. Eve

Bricked ASUS AC-68U, please help

I just tested freshtomato-RT-AC1900P-K26ARM-2025.3-VPN-64K and the wifi signal got slightly better but the speeds were around 3-5 Mbps for VPN connections. Previously I had flashed it with freshtomato-RT-AC1900P-K26ARM-2025.3-AIO-64K and the speeds were well below 1Mbps for VPN connections. Using th
