Did you factory reset the device after the firmware upgrade as that seems to be required now adays and a new config being made as well.

I just rebooted the router manually (turned it off then on, on the actual router) - this thread on the ASUS forum explains my problem a bit better than how I described it https://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?id=20150713171222452&board_id=11&model=DSL-AC68U&page=1&SLanguage=en-us

What he said.

If you don't do a full reset after a firmware upgrade you can get all sorts of strange glitches.

Sorry if I am being thick (am so not technically minded) - can you walk me through a reset?  And will this lose all my current settings I have applied to the router?

[anythingother]

BTW a reset is not turning it off and on again. You need to press the reset button for 15 seconds until it completely clears your previous configuration.

Head to the Administration tab then click Restore/Save/Upload setting then hit the restore button. That will factory reset the device. Then re configure the router again.

I have saved all my settings when I was on the previous firmware - can I restore them (those settings) from the file made or would that screw things up?

[hacktrix2006]

Its best to start again but you can try and use your old settings and if it glitches out factory reset the router again and manually set it up again.

OK - I will give it a go!

Goodluck

The only real issue I have with this device now is the lower sync rate of around 6Mb. If I change a few settings here or there I can get the majority of it back minus 1-2Mb without causing too many errors. It has remained stable which is the main thing and has been up for 9 days now.

If and when G.INP is rolled out to ECI DSLAM's, I think a majority of my issues will disappear - as I imagine the case will be with most others still pending on G.INP rollout and using this device.

On the bright side however, I managed to get from 67M to 74M this morning as DLM has given me back some of my max sync rate. Whether it's linked to me having a very high SNRM target at the moment (was 18dB) or whether it's just coincidence that it finally gave me back some speed - I can't be sure at the moment. Just seems coincidental that I set a high SNRM target for all of yesterday and then this morning it raises my max downstream sync rate, as if it believes I have plenty of spare capacity and so my line can handle it perhaps?

I've been on fastpath for weeks now too.

Hi

I've just switched from BT Infinity to Sky Fibre and set this router up with my new Sky connection. However, after finding it quite stable with BT, i'm getting lots of CRC errors on Sky. Are there any settings that are different from BT to get this more stable on Sky?

I should add i've only had Sky connected today so could this be why?

Thanks

[hacktrix2006]

Yes I think they are different in terms of setup. Best bet could be to reset the router back to factory and start again just to make sure.
