    In some dire need of assistance (AX86U)

    Did a few of those I wasn't doing, thanks. fwiw a few of my Kasa switches were disconnecting when I was meshing AC86U+AX86U. However running AX86U alone, they've stayed connected about a month so far, have 50 devices online. If we move and I add a few more IoT, I might run a 2nd router with...

    Release ASUS RT-AX86U 3.0.0.4.386.41535 30/12/2020

    I have enough coverage right now on its own, expecting to move to a bigger house at some point this year, so I played around meshing my AC86U to my AX86U. I particularly wanted to look at AiMesh 2.0's new AP binding. It seems because I MAC filter around 50 clients, it's too many rules and I...

    Is my 86U dead?

    Yes, read about that when I bought it. Phew, 2y warranty and receipt says Nov2018, except Corona may have me waiting a bit.

    Is my 86U dead?

    Thanks for your help, Nuclear Reset and latest RMerlin as above fixed it (I think). I then uploaded my CFG file I saved yesterday and I couldn't access any bookmarks again. So I started all over, no CFG upload, manually added MAC filters, didn't touch anything else for now. Made a new CFG file...

    Is my 86U dead?

    I could try that but it doesn't make sense it would suddenly give out, update version was Nov/19 when I did it. Thanks for the link, RMerlin didn't have support when I bought (I've used his builds on my previous Asus routers). Looks like it's on the list now, latest release here...

    Is my 86U dead?

    On latest firmware not a fresh update, yesterday lost internet. Connected modem cable to my old 66U (VPN router, VPN turned off) and works, I have a 68U as well I was AImeshing so I can revert to that. Tried factory reset on the 86U, then reloading settings I saved earlier, didn’t work. Does a...

    How to setup SSID for VPN and SSID for Regular ISP using MerlinWRT

    Great work! I could have used this a few months ago before buying a 2nd N66, though it only cost me $140 for 2 of them, I could have used the $100 gift card towards something else. I have since connected servers/drives respectively to each router. Router 2 has a US VPN permanently ON and also...

    qos and voip questions

    Finally got around to doing this yesterday and thanks g_m. Your example made a lot of sense once I looked more closely at the QoS UI. A few things left unanswered. 1. The default does not list this rule: "Create a DNS, Time, NTP and RSVP entry. This is in the drop down as a Service Name, so...

    qos and voip questions

    Thank you gm :) The default list actually looks good for us. I just need to set the Ooma VoIP as the highest priority. On second thought, is there a way to put online video streaming as a higher priority than downloading torrents? Or perhaps put torrents in the lowest category, how...

    qos and voip questions

    Which FW are you using? I haven't even started yet as I'm waiting for my Ooma to arrive. It won't let you save an empty entry?

    qos and voip questions

    Ok, so enter the QoS settings I posted AND what you said above? This is what's currently set: The selectable "Service Names" are: DNS, Time, NTP, RSVP FaceTime(TCP) FaceTime(UDP) FTP,SFTP,WLM,File/WebCam HTTP, SSL, File transfers Netmeeting(TCP) PPTV SMTP, POP3, IMAP, NNTP Windows Live WWW...

    Correct in my case?... 20/1.5 QoS = ON Upload BW = 1200 Kb/s Download BW = (blank) >User-defined QoS MAC address of my Ooma Telo, Highest Priority (everything else blank?)

    VPN Server vs paid OpenVPN Client

    I'm paying for a VPN, I've setup OpenVPN Client on Merlin's FW and it's working well. However, I haven't setup VPN Server (which I understand when I am outside the house, connects to my home network and tunnels traffic through it, correct?) If I'm out of the country and have no 3G service...
