    OpnSense Advice?

    I currently have an Asus RT-AX88U acting as my edge device with AiProtection and Skynet both enabled. I'm toying with the idea of using OPNSense as my edge device and switching my AX88U to bridge mode. I have played around with OPNSense in my virtual lab so I think it will do what i want. My...

    DNS - Disable advertisement of router ip in stock fw

    In Merlin's FW there's an option to disable advertisement of the router's ip as a dns server to clients if you specify your own dns servers. I've not found this option in stock firmware in the gui, but is there a way to do this via ssh? Or does this only work in Merlin? Thanks!

    For the last several months, I've been dealing with sporadic issues with iphone clients. Doesn't happen every day, but both my wife and I will sometimes have to disconnect and reconnect from wifi first thing in the morning. On the iphone side, the wifi status indicator shows as connected with...

    WPA3

    Got a couple of questions regarding WPA3 support. I've got 2 RT-AX88Us, one router node and one aimesh node, wired backhaul. Both running Merlin 384.16. I changed my wifi authentication method from wpa2 personal to wpa2/wpa3 personal, and got a message saying aimesh would become invalid if i...

    Tri-Band AC or Dual-Band AX for mesh?

    I know best case would be to run ap's over ethernet, but just curious if that's not really feasible, if a tri-band ac system with dedicated backhaul would be better or if a dual band over ax would be better? I prefer to have an asuswrt-merlin supported device at the edge for dns filtering...
