    Possible VLAN config on RT-AC68W?

    Hi all, I'm ion the process of segregating my home LAN using a VLAN for IoT devices and a normal LAN for everything else. My edge device (DHCP, DNS,firewalling etc.) is a small box with two Ethernet ports and running pfSense. I connect the LAN port to a TP-Link TL-SG108E (8 port switch) which is...

    DNS for renamed hosts?

    When I got my RT-AC68W I was thrilled to see that it replied to DNS requests for hosts on my LAN. In other words I no longer had to schlep hosts files from host to host in order to access hosts on my LAN by name. Unfortunately I have found a spot where that dos not seem to work. If I give a...

    AC68 DNS and advertising (send?)

    Hi folks, I'm delighted to find that my RT-AC68W (yes, the pretty white one. :D ) automatically provides DNS services for my humble home LAN. No more static IP reservation and having to schlep /etc/hosts files around from host to host whenever I get a new PC or other device. Except when it...
