1) Near the top of the script is a section:
# port interface configuration
#
# the default values of "eth?" direct the script to try to auto-determine the correct
# interfaces from the Asus router NVRAM values
#
# replace the "eth?" will a real interface number to override the...
To your question #3, "Router Only" is used to prevent any of the Asus AiMesh stuff from being activated. As Tech9 says, you have to use AP mode and avoid AiMesh like the plague.
Tech9's method sets the 86U up as an AP, in which case there would be no double-NATing. What I suggested was setting the 86U up in router mode, in which case I think there would be double-NATing. The router mode would give more options for visibility and control for the "neighbor" network...
I've never used 3006, but I think the 96U can be set up to have one of the LAN ports be on a guest network with no access to anything else. Then set up the 3004 86U as a router and hardwire it to that LAN port. Of course everything connected to the 3004 86U would be double NATed, but the...
I recently upgraded to 3004.388.9_2 and my script quit working. I found that the WAN detection code was being fooled by a "wl0.4" interface. I have no idea where it's coming from, since an AX86U only supports 3 guest networks (wlx.1, wlx.2 and wlx.3). I've updated the script to handle this...
Notwithstanding what you said, I still think that Asus routers are the best consumer devices available. The long-term support is unmatched by any other vendor I know of; the RT-N66U just got an update. That was the first Asus device I purchased, which was over 10 years ago. I still have it...
I had a similar issue. At first, I was trying to use the "guest network" setting on the CGU, but the hotspot portal thing bit me too. After a phone chat with Ubiquiti support, I was advised to use the network isolation setting instead. I think the current CGU app might have a bug in that the...
I know I originally said I didn't want to spend more money on Ubiquiti APs, but I guess I couldn't resist the siren song. The Unifi stuff sure does work well.
The script isn't automatically determining what the WAN port is. That has always been tricky. You can use the ip a method described in the same post from which you got the latest file version (https://www.snbforums.com/threads/using-asus-routers-as-vlan-capable-aps.93795/post-945308). Once...
It seems there should be more output, in particular the first few lines that display what ports have been determined for WAN, 2.4G and 5G. The error message you're getting is from trying to turn the radios off and on. Are you using the latest version of the script, which is a file attached to...
