What I notice about this particular topic is that it has to do with the order in which I turn the two computers ON. That is: - If I turn the desktop ON first, then the notebook, the desktop will see the shared folders on the notebook without a problem, but the notebook will not see the shared...

I have some progress to report on my bridge problems: 1. I kind of gave up on the printer/scaner losing connections to the computer topic. I have now a strong feeling it's a flaky driver from HP, because the Windows10 default driver seems to work just fine. 2. I now have both routers (RT-AC66U...

Posting back on the Repeater topic: I tried to configure the RT-AC66U_B1 as repeater three times, and got 3 different results: 1st try: Step 1: with the router in media bridge mode, simply change the mode to repeater mode in the administration tab. Result was that the router did seem to switch...

Thanks for the hints. I'll report back when I'm done with the experiments you mentioned.

Concerning Airtime fairness, I just checked, it is disabled (seems to be the default setting, since I do not remember touching it). Anyway, it's worth mentioning: all routers on default settings, all with latest ASUS firmware (no Merlin yet....)

I can do those tests, but first some clarification: - Do you mean to wire the printer to the media bridge of the docked laptop?, or to the main router? - by disable Airtime Fairness, you mean to disable it in the main router? The RT-AC66U media bridge (the one with AV gear) is switched off...

Hi, I have the following network set-up: Main Router: ASUS RT-AC87, connected to ISP via PPPoE - this router provides 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz Wi-Fi ASUS RT-AC66 connected to primary router on the 5Ghz , working in Media Bridge mode - this router has connected to it (wired): DENON receiver, a DENON BD...
