Further to this, I bit the bullet and updated to the latest FW version and can confirm the Power Management scheduling has been fixed.

Cheers,

Paul

Which exact firmware did you install mate?

I have reverted back to v13 as I had an unscheduled reboot last night after running version v14 for a week or so. V13 appears to be more stable for me.

Looks like they've picked up on at least one of the bugs in v13 that I reported into the silent echo chamber that is Zyxel support!

There are several bugs around the "custom Interface Group" code that used to work fine. I'll try this v14 shortly and see if they've addressed my specific bugs.

The 8924 really is spectacular. Compared to my HG612 it syncs around 2 Mbps higher DS but slightly less US.

This one: ftp://certified:zyxel@ftp.zyxel.it/firmware/VMG8924/V100AAKL14C0_20160408.bin

On the previous FW version the gateway had been up for 62 days uninterrupted, so was a bit hesitant to rock the boat. Only time will tell whether v14 is as stable. Interestingly, I dropped around 40kb/s on the down link sync but, throughput seems to be ever so slightly higher and more stable!

Having spoken to Zyxel UK support I did another check and have now found that V14 firmware is now available.

Just decided to install the latest f/w from the ZyXEL UK site (v14) on my 8924 and will see how it goes.

Is channel 112 really the max for 5GHz Wi-Fi on this router?

Hi

I think they have broken something with the latest firmware, which always seems to be the way with ZyXEL!  My 5GHz channel has always been higher than 112, and so is set as that now since the upgrade.  However now on v14, when I try and go to the 5GHz wireless settings I get a popup alert saying "Invalid Maximum bandwidth" and it will not show me the 5GHz settings.

Nice one ZyXEL.

Regards

I'm on v14 and only see channel 112 as max for 5 GHz, perhaps they disabled the higher channels in this firmware for some reason?

Also yesterday I shutdown the router and re-booted after an hour. The 5 GHz Wi-Fi throughput was very slow (web pages not loading). I had to re-set the channel again for it to work.

This is strange as 112 is part way up band B according to the specs I have read and bands A and B are legal for use in the UK from what I have read. Must admit I've not checked mine recently prior to upgrading to V14. Just checked and band B is channels 100 to 140.

Need someone on a lower f/w with an 8924 to check the displayed channels.
