    Is this another RT-AC68U in a different shape?

    Wasn't the RT-AC68P also a Best Buy exclusive like the RT-AC1900P? Just thought that might have gotten dropped from the chart. Edit: I see why you removed it. Just to clarify, though, only used and refurb 68P products are available on Newegg.com, Amazon (3rd party only), and eBay. They...

    Is this another RT-AC68U in a different shape?

    Also, looks like this model is not (yet) available in the U.S. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Is this another RT-AC68U in a different shape?

    Hmmm. It appears like yet another variant in just a different form factor. Looks like an update may be required to the chart here: RT-AC68U / RT-AC68P / RT-AC1900 / RT-AC1900P https://www.snbforums.com/index.php?threads/RT-AC68U---RT-AC68P---RT-AC1900---RT-AC1900P.35759/ I'm getting dizzy...

    RT-AC68U new firmware 3.0.0.4.384_20624-g14d2f02

    Nice work. I would like to see a change log before I download anything, though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    RT-AC68U new firmware 3.0.0.4.384_20624-g14d2f02

    Interesting. It's not published to the ASUS website yet, but it shows up when you "check update" from the router. So not sure what this one addresses. I see it for RT-AC1900P. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Can I stop VPN users (my kids!) from accessing my internet?

    Yeah. Exactly. There are services I mentioned before like AT&T and Xfinity that provide mobile devices with the means to connect to public hotspots automatically using your subscriber account login credentials. The modems they provide household consumers come with this feature turned on by...

    Can I stop VPN users (my kids!) from accessing my internet?

    That's something different. They would still need access to the Internet to establish a VPN connection in the first place. Another thing I have seen kids do is obtain a separate device with routing capabilities, patch that into the modem bypassing your wireless router completely, rendering...

    Can I stop VPN users (my kids!) from accessing my internet?

    Are you sure they are using a VPN solution to bypass your parental controls time schedule? If they are using wireless devices, they can get around your restrictions by doing something as simple as connecting to a different SSID or Wifi network in range that is NOT controlled by your router...

    ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.380.7378

    If any of you are curious like I was to know what those security fixes are, check it out: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-5891#vulnDescriptionTitle https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-5892#vulnDescriptionTitle...

    RT-AC1900P H/W ver:

    I don't think it's a sequential progression to indicate one is newer (or better). I bought two of them when they first became available and it was already at V3. I just think they were assembled with slightly different parts or from different plants. Not likely to indicate any significant...

    RT-AC68U openvpn working but serverlog show zero bytes in/out, and other issues

    In that scenario, yes, the VPN connection to your home network will provide a secure encrypted tunnel obscured to the public wifi. You need to make sure that you configure the OpenVPN Advanced settings to "Direct clients to redirect internet traffic". This will ensure your only connection out...

    RT-AC1900P/Plex/ChromeCast Problems

    Have you checked the Plex product forums? Lots of people having issues with the Chromecast playback depending on the firmware revision. I honestly don't think it's the router. I use Emby and also have some issues with Chromecast.

    RT-AC68U openvpn working but serverlog show zero bytes in/out, and other issues

    Hello there. I think you are confusing the VPN server on your home router with a VPN service provider. The OpenVPN server built into your ASUS router is to provide a secure connection to your home network while you are traveling or otherwise outside of your local network. If you want to appear...

    RT-AC1900P - Prevent device access to WAN

    None that I am aware with the stock firmware. It's possible you will need to introduce a separate managed switch into your network to accomplish this. It's an advanced topic and there are threads that deal with this in one way or another. An example...

    RT-AC1900P - Prevent device access to WAN

    Right. And FYI, there's another (much easier way) to quickly restrict WAN / internet access for individual devices. From the Network Map main page, select Clients and a Client status will appear on the right. Select your target device and you will see a details dialog. Enable the slider for...

    ASUS RT-AC1900P Firmware version 3.0.0.4.380.7266

    Sometimes ASUS doesn't list the latest firmware under all the OS options for a while after releasing a new build. I always just look under "Others" instead of something like Win 7 - 64 bit. Usually it's there immediately.

    RT-AC1900P - Prevent device access to WAN

    Hello. That's not accurate. I also have the RT-AC1900P and the Parental Control Time Scheduling restrictions of the stock firmware only apply to internet access. I can restrict devices and it only affects WAN/Internet connections. I can still access local area network resources from that...

    ASUS RT-AC85U Dual Band Wireless-AC2600 Gigabit Router

    Only in Japanese / Asian markets right now? I like the look.

    Asus 1900P (Best Buy) or 68U - Which One is Better?

    I think you mean the RT-AC1900P is the latest exclusive Best Buy model to date. The RT-AC1900 (without the "P") seems to be a separate model in the AC1900 space.
