    Internal or External Captive Portal Solution

    it is not exactly the same thread. Similar yes but not same. And I really regret writing this here. MOst of the time if I ask something here and if it has not been done, then I get a negative answer. BUt if I work on it , I come up with a workaround which actually works. I was once told that I...

    Internal or External Captive Portal Solution

    well, I don't want to use an external wifi access point. I want to use my Asus mesh because I have a large house with several nodes of asus mesh. I need to forward requests from Asus wifi guest network to the external captive portal.

    Internal or External Captive Portal Solution

    I know, there are many sources which explain how to build a captive portal on a raspberry PI. But can I redirect specific users from Asus router to that captive portal ?

    Internal or External Captive Portal Solution

    I know Captive Portal has been asked several times and the answer is "no" It is not an easy task to add a captive portal to Asus Merlin fw. I have read about it all. But I still have hope to achieve it with different approaches. First, some of you guys have already discussed that Nodogsplash...

    Blocking specific sites (url or dns name based) or apps (port based) per device

    thanks. I did not see that it would block Youtube. I tried the custom DNS filter method (openDNS) , it also works

    Blocking specific sites (url or dns name based) or apps (port based) per device

    I want to prevent my son to access Youtube on his laptop. He is already accessing Youtube on the tablet but it is time limited. So I need to block Youtube to laptop mac address (or IP) What is the best way to achieve this on Merlin FW ?

    4G modem (USB or Wifi)

    That list is a very short list and there are only 2 Alcatel models listed there. I assume the device name is coming from the serial protocol. So what you see is what the modem tells as its name to the router.

    4G modem (USB or Wifi)

    ok good news (at least for me) I got the Alcatel MW70V and it works as a USB modem on Dual WAN configuration on AX88U. So Asus can add this in the compatibility list. no additional configuration was required. Works out of the box.

    4G modem (USB or Wifi)

    well, I would surely prefer to use the USB mode. But there is no guarantee that the router will detect the modem well and be able to use it.

    4G modem (USB or Wifi)

    well thanks for the post but I could not understand the relation with my question and that post. it is about using a USB to ETH device to make a 2.5Gb WAN port. how can I use it with a 4G modem/access point ?

    4G modem (USB or Wifi)

    ok. thanks for this answer. as you stated, the list is really out of date. mostly 3g devices. I can't find most of them where I live. so I think I will take my chance. on the other hand, what about wifi hotspot as a backup wan link to asus router ?

    4G modem (USB or Wifi)

    I am on the edge of ordering a 4G modem for personal use. I thought , maybe I could make it work with the Asus router (ax88u) as a backup wan device, so I'd like to get some advice here. I know that there is a "compatible devices" list of Asus and Merlin firmware supports only these devices...

    Per IP Traffic accounting

    btw, I just disabled HW acceleration ; first output: - cpu temperature increased 0.5 C (from 76 to 76.5) - wl1 temperature not changed - wl2 temperature decreased 2 C (from 50 to 48) - cpu idle % not changed

    Per IP Traffic accounting

    ok. thanks for this explanation. I also read the explanation in the link (NAT acceleration) so basically with my state (uplink at 100-110Mbits) , there is no importance of HW acceleration. And since I want to follow bw usage of clients on LAN, I will disable it with following commands: these...

    Per IP Traffic accounting

    I'm not sure I follow you. English is not my native language. Could you clarify it for me: I want to be able to measure what bandwidth each client uses. So I want to disable HW acceleration with the suggested method above. But I need to understand what I lose when I diable HW acceleration...

    /opt/etc/profile corrupt - entware

    thanks. I just formatted the drive and trying to rebuild. but it seems like there is a problem with the USB disk. although Wİndows checkdisk can not find any errors, on the router after formating and creating swap, it just can not install apps. just installed entware. but after that it became RO

    /opt/etc/profile corrupt - entware

    Today I logged in to shell of my router (AX88U) and I noticed that my profile file is corrupt. content of the file is: I don't have any idea what caused this. I just tried to check if there's any other problematic file. I didn't see any yet. Now , how can I fix this ? Where can I find the...

    Per IP Traffic accounting

    how can I check it ? in previous post I had asked a method to test speed between 2 Android devices or 2 PCs. Something like that ? my internet connection is DL 100Mbit/s , UL 10Mbit/s so if the HW acceleration is just affecting LAN-WAN access, 350Mbit/s is enough for me both ways. But is there...
