    Trying to understand Guest Network Pro limitations

    I appreciate you guys taking a peek at this, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something obvious in the GUI. Not a deal-breaker at the end of the day, I'll just have to set aside some time to do things through SSH and leave the printer in the main network for the time being. At least...

    Trying to understand Guest Network Pro limitations

    The guest network and main network both have access to the printer's VLAN, but they don't have access to each other as all 3 are separate subnets. I double-checked by pinging devices from the guest subnet to main and vice-versa. It's looking like I'll need to take the manual route as you...

    Trying to understand Guest Network Pro limitations

    I have guests over occasionally to play tabletop games and they sometimes need to use my printer to print things like character sheets. I won't lie, it's not strictly necessary, just very slightly more convenient than having to print them myself. I won't lose any sleep if I can't get this to...

    Trying to understand Guest Network Pro limitations

    I have the printer's guest network using it's own subnet separate from the main network, but I also have "access intranet" option enabled. I thought that option would enable communication between the main LAN's subnet and the VLAN's subnet. It does seem like that option isn't working correctly...

    Trying to understand Guest Network Pro limitations

    Using an AX-86U Pro on FW 3006.102.4_beta1, I'm experimenting with Guest Network Pro and VLANs and I must be missing something. I've created a VLAN (tagged as 3) and set ethernet port 3 as an access port tagged with that VLAN. I've then created a new guest network with that same VLAN, turned on...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.8_2 is now available

    Happy to report that this update fixed my weird DDNS issue. The forced WAN IP verification used to work very intermittently despite being set to check once an hour and would get stuck in a "verification loop" whenever my WAN connection went down. I haven't had any issues since updating.

    WAN IP and hostname verification not respecting interval

    I gave a full reset a try to no avail, still checking every two days for some reason. The icing on the cake was needing 3 resets until it took properly. The first one left my 5 GHz band in a state where no device would stay connected. The second spat out some bizarre error message in the system...

    WAN IP and hostname verification not respecting interval

    I'm running an AX86U Pro and recently updated to 3004.388.6_2. The only addon I use is scMerlin 2.5.1. I had issues connecting devices to the 5 GHz band after the update, so I performed a full reset and initialize through the GUI which remedied the issue. It's been about 10 days and I just now...

    Printer does not work anymore ever sense using Asus RT-AX86U as main router and AT&T Gateway/Modem just as a modem on my fiber so weird. How to fix ?

    Keep in mind that setting group key rotation interval to "0" disables key rotation entirely and is technically less secure. In the unlikely scenario that someone attempts to crack your wifi encryption, having no key rotation makes it easier to accomplish.

    How do I know if VPN is working?

    I think the picture in RMerlin's documentation demonstrates how to accompish what you're after: VPN Director Specifically The rule with the "tunnel subnet" description, though you'll need to adjust the subnet and interface to match your server setup.

    Diversion How do I block Youtube shorts videos?

    Element picker in uBlock Origin will let you filter out Shorts. Best part is you can use in on mobile with Firefox, though I can only vouch for Android. I'm not sure if iOS allows extensions with Firefox. Alternatively, Revanced is a thing if you prefer using the Youtube app.

    Wake on WAN

    Just to tie up loose ends, I figured out what was ACTUALLY waking up my PC. I mistakenly assumed it was an ARP request, but it was in fact the WPA key rotation. The GTK offload feature seems to be bugged in windows as I found multiple reports of the same issue with different wireless adapters...

    Speed drop with VPN Server enabled on RT-AX82u

    Piggybacking on what ColinTaylor mentioned, HW acceleration may not be enabled. Tech9 made a list of features that will disable HW acceleration on the AX82U: I dont have Nat Acceleration (ASUS RT-AX82U) I don't think OpenVPN should be one of those either. You can check that HW acceleration is...

    RT-AX86U WiFi Calling Using Samsung Phone Intermittant

    A shot in the dark, but is MAC address randomization turned off on your Samsung devices? It will be on by default when connecting to a new WiFi network. I had constant disconnects with that setting turned on. I haven't had any issue with MAC randomization with other android devices; Samsung must...

    Wake on WAN

    I used to hide hibernate to avoid unnecessary writes to my SSD, but in the grand scheme of things I'm writing considerably more every day just using my PC. I'll give that a try this weekend and see what happens.
