    Custom firmware other than Padavan's

    You're the "ASUS Guy" so shouldn't you know the 3rd party firmware options for an Asus product? But on the subject...no this project is the only 3rd party firmware available for the RT-N56u

    ASUS RT-N56U beta firmware

    Frankly, if you are so dead set about bufferbloat your answer will be either setup the router and use it or...get another router, like I said, because bufferbloat isn't introduced into firmwares for specific routers until kernal 3.4.x I believe somewhere around there and I don't see custom...

    ASUS RT-N56U beta firmware

    Because the QoS bufferbloat "fix" is by using QoS to "degrade" your upload to fool the router into thinking you only have 60% of what you actually have...so the router maxes out at that set upload speed rule...thus making your computer appear to have a better latency during that time where your...

    ASUS RT-N56U beta firmware

    And if you read that article you would see that "This isn't only happening in home modems. Routers, switches, Ethernet cards, operating systems, wifi drivers, critical ISP infrastructure" So why are you so set on your router and nothing else, when the majority lies most likely with ISP...

    ASUS RT-N56U beta firmware

    So you upgrade your internet? How is upgrading your internet going to solve your "problem"? You have the same ISP so upgrading wouldn't really benefit you unless you were upgrading to another ISP, because it's still the same ISP configurations...just different speeds... and an FYI...your...

    ASUS RT-N56U beta firmware

    The test is stupid to do (and I will never do it, as I will never use java on my computer)...basically it's like this 1) you're using QoS and have implemented 60% of your upload max so you will never max out your upload speed to keep low latency during uploads or 2) you rather have a faster...

    ASUS RT-N56U beta firmware

    Taking networking advice from a youtube commentator is like taking advice from Bill Gates on how to setup Apple devices.

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    No, it's not seen through the router's GUI...just type 192.168.100.1 into the address bar like you were going on google.com it's just like accessing your router's GUI, but adding the zero's.

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    when you type 192.168.100.1 into the address bar it should take you to your modem login page after you login click on something like signals and check the signal levels.

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    Some ISP's have bandwidth limitations so if you use over their allowed data they will throttle your connection...some have lifted data caps over the last year, but some could still be doing it. and the modem could be a bad unit...I bought a brand new Motorola SB6141 and as soon as I plugged...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    CoDel is not included in Padavan firmware builds as it's still an older kernal compared to the kernal that CoDel was first introduced and bufferbloat is really a gray area as some believe it is there and others do not...I am one that believes that it is not there. Alot of people that don't have...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    a number of things...what ISP? Perhaps you got a bad modem or it isn't configured right from the ISP or maybe you have interference somewhere in the lines like a low upstream power level or downstream power levels out of whack...try plugging the xbox into the modem and play for awhile see if it...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    What settings do you have setup...if your settings are the same as mine then the problem is not the router, but your ISP/modem/or someone on your internet connection downloading files or streaming movies etc as I've had the 56u for better on a year using Padavan newest version when it's...

    Optimizing router settings for Xbox live and minimal lag

    There really isn't a specific xbox live setup on the router. Just use auto IP address in system settings on the xbox and in the router give it a static IP under LAN>DHCP Server. As for NAT Type you can use Full Cone NAT or the default Classical Linux Hybrid NAT both work fine and still give...

    Question(s) for RMerlin

    Thanks...I'm hoping this will be a good upgrade from an already good router. When I got it I only had about 3 things on wireless now I'm up to almost 9 and heard good things about ASUS AC unit.

    Question(s) for RMerlin

    Hello, I was planning on going to Best Buy in the AM to get their RT-AC66r I was wondering what's the difference in the "r" as opposed to the "u" unit besides it was made for Best Buy retail. Also, which of your firmware would you recommend for the AC66 as I really only use 3rd party...

    RT-N66u or RT-AC66u

    I've been a RT-N56u user for some time now atleast a year or slightly more and was wondering which of these two were best...I have added multiple devices though I started with maybe 3 but added more so now I am up to about 9 and started looking into these two routers...any performance difference...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    It's still in the firmware build, just better synced up...the way to set manual rates is to navigate to WIRELESS>PROFESSIONAL and toggle IGMP SNOOPING to "OFF" and it will unlock the Multicast Rate section.
