    RT-N66R stopped working, lights flashing

    This router is only used to plug a VoIP phone into, which connects wirelessly (set to media bridge) to an RT-AC86U. When the router was turned on today (it's turned off nightly), the VoIP phone had no signal, and the router gives a series of blinking lights: All the lights flash on for a...

    Help with structured media panel

    I just bought a preowned house that has a structured media panel, which I've never had, and am trying to figure out what all the previous owners have going on with it and what I need to do to get it right. Seems the previous owner had AT&T fiber, and I plan to carry over my Xfinity cable...

    Should I get tri-band routers?

    My parents have a ranch style home with an RT-N66U at one end, and a TP Link TL-WA855RE (300mbs) extender in the middle. I'm trying to figure out the best way to improve performance. I have an extra Asus RT-AC68U. Should I buy another AC86 and connect as mesh? I also have a Google Wi-Fi 3-piece...

    Can't get IP phone to work with repeater router

    I got an RT-AC86U to replace a RT-N66W, so the AC86 is now the main router and I wanted to use the N66 just to plug an IP phone (Yealink SIP-T425) in so I could move it and the desk to a different spot. Nothing else would be connected to the N66. I logged into the N66 and changed it's mode to...

    Which of these ASUS router(s) should I buy?

    A friend has an RT-N66U router upstairs that at 2.4Ghz, barely reaches the other end of the house downstairs (and cuts out a lot there), so was thinking about buying two new ones for a mesh setup, but I'm thinking a newer ASUS router would have better coverage, so I would only need one. I did...

    RAX20 loses internet

    I just connected an RAX20 for the first time yesterday, and while it took a long time to establish an internet connection, it finally did, and then worked as I tested it for half an hour. But when I tried it again a couple hours later, it had no internet connection, even after rebooting it and...

    Mesh router with non-mesh router?

    I'm planning to get two mesh routers (probably ASUS), but need a 3rd router to be able to have an IPT work phone in a certain location. Considering speed isn't a concern with the 3rd router, can I use a non-mesh router I already have for that 3rd location to wirelessly connect to one of the...

    Which firmware?

    I'm looking to update the firmware on two RT-N66R routers (in two different locations) with different requirements. For one, I'm looking for the best range. Not concerned about speed. I've read some posts here that some firmware can help range. Current firmware is Asuswrt-Merlin 380.57 For the...

    Which firmware for RT-N66R?

    I'm having a hard time deciding which firmware I should upgrade to for my RT-N66R. Which one should I use? It still has the Asus 3.0.0.4.380_3831 firmware. I'm not a big tweaker, else I probably wouldn't need to ask. *latest Asus *Merlin legacy 380.70 *john9527's latest fork (based on Merlin...
