BE14000/BT8 3.0.0.6.102_56914 Upgrade

[tfhoughton]

ASUS posted a new firmware update to help address the issues with the previous FW versions on the BE14000 and BT8 mesh systems. Several folks have upgraded to the 56914 version. So far, so good. If you have issues with the BT8 or BE14000 recently you might want to consider upgrading to 56914.

The one thing we have noticed is that the 56914 syslog has repeated Assoc/Disassoc messages. Have not seen any issues with it though.

Hello

Are you still having good results with your Zenwifi. I have updated but there are still some slowness.

Do you have some recommendations which settings are best? I have changed my settings a lot (beamforming etc) and I don't know any more what is best in current situation. I just would not like to return default settings and create wifi again...

Do you have daily scheduled automatic reboot on? I was thinking to try it next if it stabilizes situation.

@Butterfly , I have not enabled auto reboot. I made some config changes - IoT net for Ring, etc., Adaptive QoS with Web Surfing #1, Video streaming #2, MLO enabled. 

I have had issues with Ring cams bouncing between nodes so I did binf a few cams to a specific AP.

3.0.0.6.102_56914 fixed the issues I had:

• The slow login GUI: previously it took several seconds (5 secs), now it loads in less than one second.
• Wen web brosing, web content was sometimes missing (possibly due to packet loss).

3.0.0.6.102_56914 issues I noticed:

• WiFi 5Ghz, 6Ghz transmit power weak than 3.0.0.6.102_56900
• WiFi 5Ghz(6), 6Ghz (6E) speed slow than 3.0.0.6.102_56900

I hope the next firmware update will:

• Allow adjustment(not on/off) of the LED indicator brightness. (It's too bright.)
• In a single-router setup, allow users to completely disable the mesh feature and prevent broadcasting of the hidden mesh backhaul SSID. I don't need mesh feature.
