    Replacing a Sky Hub and ASUS RT-AC68U - advice on best options needed

    Scrap that, I needed to move on with this and further research suggests the all-in-one might not be the best solution. I have ordered an RT-AC86U plus a HG612 VDSL modem. Not sure if anyone is interested, but thought I would share in case anyone Googles and finds the thread.

    Replacing a Sky Hub and ASUS RT-AC68U - advice on best options needed

    I've now started looking at the ASUS DSL-AC88U AC3100 as an all-in-one solution. Can anyone offer an opinion on that?

    Replacing a Sky Hub and ASUS RT-AC68U - advice on best options needed

    I currently run a Sky FTTC network using the Sky Hub as a modem with the AC68U as router. The ASUS runs Merlin, and I have had this setup for a few years without any problems. I'm aware that this setup isn't recommended because the Sky Hub doesn't have a modem only or bridge mode, but I have DNS...

    Bypassing Merlin router-based VPN for specific software

    Thanks Merlin. Someone has suggested the following can be used: https://github.com/Xentrk/x3mRouting I've yet to explore it properly but they have indicated that they use the routing script to split their traffic with their streaming services sitting outside the tunnel and their tunnelled...

I want to run the traffic for my LG WebOS TV through the VPN and there is no way to install a VPN client on the TV locally (which would be the easiest way to switch the tunnel on/off) so my only viable solution is to run it through the router...

    BBC website domain blocked when not through VPN

    Apologies for the delay - been much busier than anticipated. I thought I'd report back as it looks like I have been making this far more complicated than necessary. I've resolved this issue by foregoing the script and using the option in the GUI that I hadn't previously noted/understood fully...

    BBC website domain blocked when not through VPN

    Thanks. I found last night that there were other sites being blocked, and not just on traffic routed through the ISP. All a bit random though. So, the BBC was being blocked through the ISP when wired or wireless, but all traffic through both VPN and local ISP was blocking an online game I play...

    BBC website domain blocked when not through VPN

    Hi I have an ASUS RT-AC68U on which I recently setup policy based routing using Merlin's instructions in this guide: https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/wiki/Policy-based-routing-(manual-method) Everything has tested as working fine, but I have noticed that traffic routed through my local...
