    Question about RT-AX58U firmware and Aimesh

    Thanks for your 1st reply about recovery software, I just finished and flashed it to the lastest Asus firmware. My main Aimesh router is not supported by Merlin so I think I better have this RT-AX58U back to Asus firmware, thanks again.

    Question about RT-AX58U firmware and Aimesh

    Another problem, I can not flash Asuswrt to the latest 388 Asuswrt-Merlin firmware that I flashed to the router. Anyway, as long as Aimesh will work fine with the main mesh router with Asuswrt firmware, I should be fine.

    I added the 6TB HDD, one by one. Anyway, I just connected an external drive to the AS1004T and backing up a few folders to it and since the external drive is only 8TB, some of the files will go to my computer later, lucky for me is that I have some of the folders backed up on Synology as well...

    Thanks for the reply, they are already on their lastest firmware, I think the only thing I could test it is to buy a 12TB hard drive and move my 10.5TB data from the Asustor to it and then reformat Asustor and see if it will increase the volume size to near 16TB like the Synology which is...

    Disable UPNP ?

    I read an article that I should disable upnp and ran test on https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 to make sure my router can not be probe. Nonetheless, the result is my router can not be probe even with upnp still on. Should I disable it anyway? My router is the GT-AC2900 thanks.
