    Add emoji support in SSID?

    Got it working again. Simple fix. Just used the ASUS Router app on the phone to make the changes back. I like to push systems and see how they respond. It's what I do. If we all did what people told us to do then you will only have copycats.

    Add emoji support in SSID?

    I've managed to add an emoji to my guest networks SSID on the ASUS router with the merlin firmware. (some script hacking was needed via webdev tools on the browser) However, now I get as below when I click on guest network. It may be possible to do a bit more hacking on the web scripts to...

    VPN Client Redirect Internet traffic speeds

    Thanks for the help guys! I now have set up my Synology DS214+ as the OpenVPN Client connection to IPVanish. I can now get download speeds of 4MBps from IPVanish (which I guess will be around 32mbps on the SpeedTest.net). See...

    Routing traffic via OpenVPN Server through OpenVPN Client connection

    I've finally got the setup working as I need it (after a few weeks of smashing my head against a wall of nails). What I had to do: 1. Connect to my ASUS VPN Server to make the inital connection to access the LAN. 2. Set up my Synology NAS network connection to DHCP - This was my most single...

    VPN Client Redirect Internet traffic speeds

    I have set up a VPN client to IPVanish on my router with Redirect Internet traffic policy rules selected for specific devices. When running Speedtests on devices which have traffic redirected, the speedtest results do not exceed 15mbps. When running the VPN client direct from IPVanish, I get...

    Glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue! My VPN client is set to Strict on Accept DNS configuration.

    Routing traffic via OpenVPN Server through OpenVPN Client connection

    I have set up an OpenVPN server on my ASUS RT-AC66U router (merlin firmware). I have also set up a connection to IPVanish using the OpenVPN Client connection. Is it possible to route traffic from the client connection to the OpenVPN Server via the IPVanish connection? I tried to use the...

    OpenVPN Client - Redirect internet traffic stops other device from working

    I have now set the DNS1 to my router IP and DNS2 to my ISP DNS IP. I used Google's IP as it was easier to remember so I can test to see if it would make a difference to the internet issue. For now, I can say the issue is solved using a workaround of setting one of the DNS IP to a public/ISP...

    OpenVPN Client - Redirect internet traffic stops other device from working

    Hello, As per your questions... Wireless mode = Auto Phone age = 3 years LAN DHCP now has the router IP as the DNS1 and DNS2 is 8.8.8.8 Redirecting internet traffic for the Wife's phone may work, but it still does not explain why the problem is happening as I never had to do this before...

    OpenVPN Client - Redirect internet traffic stops other device from working

    It's working, but not as it should be, like it did before. So... I have now tried to do different things hoping that my router will behave like it did before the firmware update. Download different firmwares to try remove any hidden thing that may have triggered it, but nothing has hit it. Put...

    OpenVPN Client - Redirect internet traffic stops other device from working

    Asus-merlin user. I just tried the 30-30-30 method as someone suggested it on some post read somewhere on what usually works to factory reset most routers in general. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

    OpenVPN Client - Redirect internet traffic stops other device from working

    Ok, now things are getting a lot worse. Last night I rolled the firmware back to 380.62 and did a factory restore (in addition to the 30-30-30 reset rule). Put the settings back to how they did work before and all looked good, but this morning I checked and the problem still remains with the...
