ASUS has rolled out a new firmware update targeted at one of its top routers, namely version 3.0.0.4.376.2061, compatible with the RT-AC87R wireless device, which improves media bridge mode performance and more.

Specifically speaking, this fresh release also enhances performance when connecting to an Intel Centrino 5300 wireless card, and installs the latest driver version for the router’s Quantenna 802.11ac processor.

When it comes to fixes, build 376.2061 resolves the AiCloud UI issue encountered when generating file share link, as well as the beamforming GUI bug, and changes settings so that the beamforming feature is now enabled by default.

As the producer recommends, upgrading to this version should be taken into account, as the previous ASUS RT-AC87R Firmware 3.0.0.4.376.2044, as well as the stock ASUS RT-AC87R Firmware 3.0.0.4.376.1779 encountered problems regarding compatibility in specific environments.

Therefore, get and unzip the downloadable archive, log into the router’s webUI using a wired connection, and, from the “Firmware Update” section, select the .trx file located within the newly extracted folder.

Afterwards, simply wait for the update file to be transferred to the router and for the installation process to successfully finish, and make sure you don’t interrupt the upgrade by using the device’s buttons, removing the power adapter, or in any other way.

That being said, download ASUS RT-AC87R Router Firmware 3.0.0.4.376.2061, apply it on your device, and get rid of those compatibility problems. Also, constantly check out our website in order to stay “updated one minute ago.”
