14 DAY TRIAL // In terms of custom releases, AsusWrt-Merlin has continuously developed more and more firmware packages for some of ASUS’ top routers, such as its newest 386.2.2 that includes several improvements and fixes.
Specifically speaking, the present release corrects RT-AC86U kernel debugging log entry, fixes IPv6 pings that were blocked if sent below the rate limit (instead of above), implements tweaks to the Firmware Upgrade page display, and adds other changes as highlighted in the Release Notes below.
When it comes to supported devices, this release is suitable for ASUS’ RT-AC2900, RT-AC3100, RT-AC5300, RT-AC68U, RT-AC86U, RT-AC88U, RT-AX11000, RT-AX56U, RT-AX58U, RT-AX68U, RT-AX86U, and RT-AX88U wireless routers.
Therefore, if you intend to make use of these new enhancements, save the appropriate package for your device model, unzip it, establish a wired connection between the router and your computer, and go to Advanced Settings > Administration > Firmware Upgrade.
Afterward, near the “New Firmware File” section, hit the “Choose File” button, navigate and select the .trx file, click “Upload,” and wait patiently as the upgrade is performed.
Even though it seems easy, bear in mind that interrupting this process in any way can lead to severe malfunctions and can also render the device unusable. Once finished, you will be prompted with an appropriate message on your monitor.
With this in mind, download AsusWrt-Merlin Router Firmware 386.2.2 for your specific device, apply it, and check our website as often as possible to stay informed when newer versions are available for your product.
