Oh, have I touched a nerve or something here? Apologies if that was the case.

Router is RT-BE88U and even with the very basic of configuration, leaving WiFi settings untouched or turning WiFi radios off altogether and relying on my AP instead, I am facing this issue with this latest firmware. Not really desperate for a solution as my Flint 2 is working quite well for now...

Since upgrading to the latest Asuswrt-Merlin firmware, I’ve been seeing persistent connectivity issues that weren’t present before the update. Specifically: My Ring Alarm hub is generating very frequent disconnect/reconnect alerts. Large file transfers across my LAN over Wi-Fi now fail...

I’ve also noticed that remote access to my Plex server has been intermittently failing ever since doing a clean install of the latest AsusMerlin firmware. It used to work consistently on previous versions with no issues. Disabling UPnP and switching to manual port forwarding fixes the problem...

Most helpful once again and working perfectly. Thanks a million.

You’re such a great fountain of knowledge. Both of your solutions worked right away, and I now have all my remote-access requirements fully covered thanks to your help. I did have to remove my home router's IP as the DNS to keep internet access working (whilst only allowing 192.168.1.0/24) on...

Very grateful for your insight.

Now that I’m able to fully access my home network resources through WireGuard while also having the router’s WG VPN client enabled, I have a couple of related questions. First, is it possible to access only my LAN devices without routing all of my internet traffic through my home router...

Wow, you all are awesome — adding that simple rule fixed it! I’m still not sure why it worked on the older firmware without it, but I really appreciate the help. I will keep on testing to see if it continues to properly work. I have removed my previous first VPN Director's rule and things are...

Nothing back from ping:

Do you mean like this?? Yes, that obviously works fine as it makes my setup behave exactly as if VPN client is completely disabled. This is not my use case though as I need all of my local traffic going out to pass through VPN client (WGC1) and not through WAN. Edit: Sorry @CaptainSTX , I...

My local LAN is 192.168.1.0/24. On the router, I have only one WireGuard client (WGC1), which connects to Windscribe. That’s where all traffic from my LAN (192.168.1.0/24) is routed, according to the second rule in VPN Director and that part is working perfectly and not being blocked at all by...

This setup used to work perfectly until the last couple of firmware updates. Each update was installed clean with full factory resets, but I’m still seeing the same issue: I can no longer reach my home network from outside. The VPN tunnel itself works flawlessly as long as the router’s VPN...

I’m trying to set up remote access to my home network using WireGuard VPN on my RT-BE88U, and I’d appreciate any help. When the router is running only the WireGuard VPN server, everything works fine — I can connect remotely from multiple clients (Android, Windows laptop, etc.) without issues...

Asus firmware in all varieties was quite late to join the party when it comes to implementing Wireguard. I unfortunately suspect that there will be similar reluctance to move on with the times here.
