They must be having issues. It was working. EDIT: They have updated their support page to state production IPs will have it March 10.

OpenDNS production IPs now validate with DNSSEC

So I guess just use FamilyShield IPs if you want DNSSEC. But you will miss your porn sites lol

They literally deleted my support ticket asking about DNSSEC......

It does say the target for production was the 24th, but maybe since it said target they haven't reached it yet and there is a delay? I've opened a support ticket on this.

Its their best out of the box Mesh they have made. However, I had issues. I don't like the limited 160mhz support. The 2.5g port on the extra node would drop out. ASUS is aware of it. I tested a beta firmware, didn't fix the problem. I ended up going back to my Orbi. It actually had more range...

Dont use WP3 on ZenWifi yet. It isn't fully ready.

The ZenWifi runs fairly normal in terms of temps. The AX92u, however, very hot. I don't think ASUS intends for their routers to be outside, and a garage in that climate would probably get very warm inside unless you AC your garage. I don't recommend it.

I've seen inconsistent performance with the AX92u, as well. It also has very high ram usage for a router with 512mb. Around 90% used, but ASUS says that is normal.

Thanks for the clarification.

Since ZenWifi is Qualcomm based, probably no Merlin support.

I haven't tried WP3. The only thing it told me was it needed protected frames to be capable or required. My understanding is WPA3 is pretty useless right now unless the devices support it.

I agree, the webpage for the new ZenWifi is not very clear and you would think with the product now out in the wild there would be more info. Even some of the reviews don't give you much more. I like Dong, for example, but nowhere in his review does it say ZenWifi supports WP3, when it does...

I suspect ASUS will be supporting ZenWifi a lot. Its really the first product from them built from the ground up with proper mesh system. And to their credit, they are communicating well.

Yes, both nodes have a 2.5g port / wan port. Backhaul is AX in wireless and you can wire ethernet from nodes from the 2.5g/wan ports.
