    Guest network giving two sets of IP

    This is my Guest network. I've got Yazfi and running 386.3_2 firmware. Clients on this 2.4G network should only be getting 192.168.2.0/24 IP. However some devices are picking up my internal 192.168.1.0/24 network. Any idea what is going on? I also tried pinging these 192.168.1.0/24 IP that is...

    Moved to aimesh and it seems worse

    Originally I have 1 router and 1 access point connected together via ethernet. Both at center of the house and one on each floor. It kinda works but just annoying to manage when I have to update them. I was thinking let's try out aimesh and buy another extra access point to increase the...

    YazFi or Aimesh?

    I'm currently using YazFi and I have 1 router + 1 access point. Yazfi doesn't seem to support the second access point so I'm having problems with IOT devices switching between different subnet when they roam between the router or AP. My second access point uses the built in guest network and it...

    Hotspot LTE with external antenna for campervan

    I'm working from a campervan most days. However the cell 4G LTE signal can be spotty in certain locations. Although I'm getting 4-5 bars on my phone, the download/upload is useable when I turn on the hotspot. Probably between 1-5Mbps and high latency. I did some research and there seems to be...

    URL rewrite?

    I don't know if the topic is correct. I have a lot of applications and docker on my internal network. What I'm looking at is this. Say I have a plex server on http://hostA:32400/web. I want to access it via http://plex. Is there something on the router that can do this? It's kinda hard when I...

    My openvpn server cannot ssh onto the clients but the clients can ssh into the server. Server 192.168.7.1 Clients 192.168.7.0/24 I know this is a firewall issue on the openvpn server itself because it starts working when I disable the firewall. This is the route that I added for forwarding...

    Would a cheap AC1900 work for AP?

    Currently have 1 x ac68u. I have mix and match of clients on 2.4G and 5G. Low bandwidth like Smart home devices are all on 2.4G.

    Wifi or router can't cope with the amount of traffic?

    I have a RT-AC68P. I'm wondering whether it is because I have too much traffic and clients. Or that my 5G network is saturated by neighbors AP? I can see a couple of them between 45-55 dbm. Should I should go for something like a beefier setup with pfsense /opnsense and just use the RT-AC68P as...

    What's your max throughput for you openvpn?

    I use my router as a vpn client. I was getting 30-40mbps down and 15up. After the cipher and compression tweaks, I'm getting 80mbps. I'm wondering if it the openvpn protocol or the settings that I'm not able to achieve a higher throughput.

Mostly so I can manage the router but I don't want to open it up to the outside world. How do I do...
