I wonder the same 
The only difference may be the space the wireless driver is allocated on, and maybe some hw changes i don’t know off?
On the BPI-R4 i noticed a issue on OpenWrt GitHub the driver had issues above 4gb ram.
But also the asus ax6000 tuf seem to have minor issues but less severe than mt6000.
Edit
One thing i know for sure, it is not a hardware defect, because the wifi issue has been solved for me on the mediatek sdk.
True.
I came from that asus router and I have never had any Wifi problems. Unfortunately on that router merlin firmware cannot be installed (at least 2-3 months ago).
Flint 2 is definitely better in terms of configurations, it’s an openwrt based router and this (for me) make the difference and to be honest when (and if) the WiFi issue will be fixed we will have a great domestic router.
This is definitely a good question. I’m wondering the same.
Are you sure that they all use the open source driver?
Checked few moments ago. Accordingly with https://dlsvr04.asus.com.cn/pub/ASUS/wireless/TX-AX6000/GPL_TX_AX6000_300438831927..zip?model=TUF-AX6000 they are using mt_wifi_7981
And nowadays you can install also OpenWrt (23.05.2) on that… ([OpenWrt Wiki] ASUS TUF-AX6000)
Reason code 15 indicates password wrong.
How is everyone finding 4.5.7 (dated 2023-03-05) ?
I’ve messed up my router and need to factory reset it tonight, was thinking if this is stable enough I would give it a go.
I don’t mind using Beta software and I’m comfortable with the CLI and OpenWRT… as long as everyone’s WiFi works in the house they couldn’t care less.
Just wanted to make sure there were no known major issues that will cause me a headache.
That’s impossible.
The password didn’t change.
If I go to the thermostat (Google Nest Learning Thermostat 3rd Generation) and select “Connect”, it becomes online again without needing to type any new password.
Code 15 could be some WPA3 issue as well - do you use WPA3? If this is the case, try to create a new SSID for your IoT devices and stay with WPA2 there.
I’m not using WPA3
I just upgraded from latest Beta version of February to the first Beta version of March and I started to see this problem.
Now I upgraded it to the Beta version (5th of March) and I’ll keep monitoring.
I experienced a similar situation, after restart of said devices they connect normally again.
but the issue happens not constantly more randomly especially when a restart occuried and only on some devices, but i think not device specific, i have seen both the Aqara g2h camera, and homewizard power plugs having issues, but not all my home plugs show this behaviour.
For me it looks these devices are less respecting authentication and instead say hey im already authenticated, but the router does not have a entry anymore, and deauths with code 15 unauthenticated/wrong password.
^ if this can be confirmed its probably something what can be handled from the driver in a more graceful manner, or maybe in the future.
I could be mistaken though, but for me it looks like that.
4.5.6 is missing packages needed to install Transmission. On March 4.5.7 they are. A lot of packages are missing from the openwrt 23.05 stable! Many dependences broken!

your wifi chip in nest learning thermostat is failing. soon will not be able to connect to wifi and you’ll need a replacement. happened to me twice. moved away from nest to tado (now i have local control via Home Assistant and multizone).
I don’t think so, because another user above is also experiencing a similar issue and the device is not the Nest Learning Thermostat.
By the way, on Beta driver from 5th of March looks much more stable
Yeah it has been great so far.
One bug ive found on 4.5.7 release 5 is im not able to use any of the 100+ channels when ive got 160mhz enabled on the 5ghz band, previously I was able to use channel 128 and get away for all other wifi traffic in my area, but on this beta none of the 100+ channels are working.
What do you mean by „not working“? They don’t show up?
Is the country code in luci correct?
See List of WLAN channels - Wikipedia
by not working I mean it wont use any of them, it reverts and defaults itself to channel 40 which everyone is on, previously it worked fine around about firmware 4.5.4
Im in the UK and based on that link you just sent me, I should be perfectly fine using channel 128 DFS.
There is also no option to set country code in Luci, unless im looking in the wrong place, but im going to Wireless > Edit > Advanced setting
EDIT: seems like the country code thing might be the problem, however, with no way to change it thats an even bigger problem, its currently showing 00 in luci which is the US.
