    AX58u paired with AC88u question

    The power switch on my AC88u broke so I bought myself the AX58u which in my initial testing appears to be a fantastic little router for the price. I ended up fixing the AC88u by taking the little spring out of the power switch and now I want to try AI Mesh. Does it make sense to use the AX58U as...

    AI Mesh question for 5Ghz clients

    I have a quick question regarding 5Ghz clients and AI Mesh. I have an AC88u serving as the master and a AC68u serving as the node using 5Ghz as wireless backhaul. I've noticed only the 2.4Ghz clients bounce between the master and node. All 5Ghz clients (even ones 3 feet away from my node) stay...

    Asus Router App Security Warning!

    So I thought I would experiment with the Asus Router app on my iPhone. To my surprise the app has Remote Connection enabled by default and it goes ahead and enables DDNS for you without even asking. I would think they should at least warn you of this.

    AC88u 5Ghz signal strength

    I upgraded from an AC68p to a AC88u and I'm honestly ready to return the AC88u. While the 2.4GHz signal seems equivalent or slightly stronger the 5GHz signal does not seem as strong as on the AC68p. My Roku in the basement on the 5GHz band shows like 1 bar signal strength and it showed full bars...

    nvram usage AC68u

    How full does your nvram have to get before you start to run into problems? Mine currently sits at 47464 / 65536 bytes after purging all of my DHCP reservations to try and free it up. This is after a fresh reset after installing 380.61-beta1. Of note, I do save my traffic stats to a USB drive...

    2.4Ghz clients lose internet when NAT acceleration disabled

    Has anybody found a workaround or solution to the bug with Merlin's 380.57 where 2.4GHz clients lose internet when NAT acceleration is disabled on the AC68u? I know this has been discussed extensively in the 380.57 thread but I'm frustrated enough with it I'm ready to shelve this thing and...

    NAT acceleration needed?

    I have an AC68P router and Comcast just upgraded our internet service to 150 mbit/s. Do I need NAT acceleration to enjoy the full benefits of this speed? When I do a speed test I seem to be pulling in 150 mbit/s so I'm not sure if I need it or not, I really don't want to give up traffic...

    ac3200 review

    Note all the extra cooling vents added to the bottom of the ac3200 and the elevated feet. Makes me wonder if Asus realized they goofed with AC87u cooling design.

    Global Traffic Stats with NAT

    With the introduction of the bandwidth monitor and traffic analyzer I am going to try and finally retire per IP monitoring so I can fire up NAT acceleration. My question is, I realize per ip traffic is incompatible with NAT but is global traffic accuracy affected? The global monthly traffic...

    AC87u thermal issues?

    So does the AC87u have overheating issues or not? I have read enough on these forums to have me a little concerned the cooling tape used may be insufficient. The reason I ask is I'm about to receive my annual bonus and I always treat myself to a new Asus router. I don't want to drop $260 on a...

    USB AC53 issues

    I'm getting pretty frequent disconnects with this adapter despite a very strong wireless AC signal. I'll be happily surfing and then see the yellow triangle on the wireless icon in my taskbar and I'll lose internet. Happens about once a day. Only unplugging the thing and plugging it back in...

    Finally utilizing wireless AC !!

    Since my newly purchased Asus laptop has a cheap single band wifi card in it I decided to finally make use of my AC router and purchased the Asus USB AC53 adaptor. I know USB AC56 is now available but I did not want a huge antenna sticking out the side my new sleek laptop and I read the review...

    How many clients?

    I'm thinking of adding 2 more security cameras to my home. I already have about 17 devices on my home network (not all are used simultaneously). How many clients can a Asus router handle before things start to bog down, I have a AC66u

    Guest Network working?

    How exactly does the guest network work? I have guests assigned to my guest network and I see they have a 192.168.1.X IP address putting them in same subnet and their PC's showing up in my network discovery? My old linksys would assign guest network PC's a 192.168.2.X IP address putting them...

    Wireless AC slow to deploy

    Just got back from local BestBuy to buy the wife a new laptop. Every Asus laptop model they sold didn't even support 5Ghz wireless N, and forget about wireless AC. A $900 laptop has a piece of junk Intel 2200 in it that only supports the 2.4Ghz band. Seems to me wireless AC is slow to deploy and...
