    RT-AC87R possible NAT Loopback issues

    ----- Just to follow up on the above post, since I did not get any replies, I decided to use the Merlin FW to see if the problem continues. Merlin FW had helped me in the past when the RT-AC66U had just come out and it was buggy and Merlin offered a much more stable option. I loaded Merlin...

    RT-AC87R possible NAT Loopback issues

    I don't think the NAT Loopback issues claimed to have been solved in previous FW release 3.0.0.4.378.4376 is really fixed. On FW:3.0.0.4.378_4608 it works for a few minutes and it freezes indefinitely after that. If I reboot the router, it comes back for a few minutes again but it dies after...

    Network map not complete

    Even though the network map refresh starts a background job, in my case some devices are never found regardless of how long you wait for the network map. This is true despite the fact that those devices acquire IP address from the ASUS DHCP server. This issue, alongside some other related...

    Overwhelmed

    Not sure if this is the right forum for NAS discussions, but regardless, take a look at Synology. It is an extremely well made NAS but does many other things as well. You'd be impressed. I use Synology 1812+. 8 bays with 8x3 TB drives. But there are many other sizes and models. It supports...

    266 firmware much better signal strength

    I moved to 270 the first day it came out. I noticed the same speed degradation you've outlined and moved back to 266. I must confess my experiments to determine speed was adhoc and not carefully managed across 266 and 270 so the results are anecdotal. So many parameters could influence the...

    Some questions Network Map behavior

    Thanks for the quick response. Clicking the refresh button shows two different behaviors for me: - It restarts the list with fixed IP device names quickly resolving and then other devices gradually appearing and their MAC address getting resolved to system names gradually. This is what you...

    Some questions Network Map behavior

    Thanks. I am using fixed IP for devices that dont show correctly on the list but other problems persist. I looked at similar previous posts and they are along the same lines. It is interesting that devices that come to the router for DHCP dont show on occasions on the list. I am aware of the...

    Some questions Network Map behavior

    I recently moved to Merlin FW starting with 270.24. it has been working fine and it appears to have solved the wireless performance issues I had with the factory 270. So thank you for this enhanced FW. I have couple of questions regarding network map and name resolution behavior. My...
