I currently have a TS-x53D and also run my Plex server on it, it's starting to get a bit slow though when searching files and I now want it to record my doorbell stream and run Home Assistant. My Plex client is a Shield TV Pro and it's managed to deal with everything I've thrown at it... I can't...

Please excuse if I get any terminology incorrect or I have misunderstood what I have read and understood about the VLAN setting up process. I'd like to check my understanding is correct before going ahead with the order of 1Gb fibre. I'm currently receiving my internet in the Netherlands via...

Hi All, I am trying to replace my OpenVPN setup with a Wireguard one and am being let down by one device in the chain. This was in the hope that the connection would be faster on Wireguard. Property 1 has an AX86U running the latest Merlin Firmware, with Wireguard VPN's set up on the router...

Dirty upgrade from 3004.388.8_2 working flawless on my AX86U so far. Thank you as always Merlin! Cheers Bit

Cheeky little dirty upgrade of the AX88U from 3004_388.5_0, so far so good! 👍

Plus you would only need a tunnel to home, if you want to access something on your home network? I have a home server set up, so I can access my NAS securely whilst away. And like RMerlin says, just connect each device to their own SurfShark connection. Use that for surfing etc and the...

Dirty updated my AX86U to 388.2_2 from 388.2. Only issue remains the slow recovery of the 5Ghz WiFi channel after any re-boot of the router. Have the same issue on my AX88U too, otherwise all good on both routers! Cheers @RMerlin

Dirty upgrade from 386.7.2 3hr 15m uptime so far and no complaints from the wife or little man! DDNS and VPN's all seem to be working just fine. Cheers @RMerlin Bit

@eibgrad Many thanks for all your help, VPN Director is up and running correctly and access to router is also possible! ;)

I only ever access my router via the LAN or via my home OpenVPN Server. The reason for me trying to have a formal access page, via (myhostname.myddnsprovider.com), was to finally have the HTTPS accepted, without it always warning me it's "unsafe". I know the warning doesn't matter, as I am only...

That would explain it then, I was trying to access via "https://router.asus.com:*****/Main_Login.asp" I shall try just with the IP :) I was looking at trying to get access via the actual DDNS page on another thread prior to playing around with the VPN Director. Would the below work with this...

Yes, last time I tried to use the VPN Director, I was unable to access the router via wireless or ethernet and had to reset it... Internet was working fine though and firestick appeared to be off of VPN, which suggested it was working... I just couldn't access the router anymore :( I think that...

Thanks for confirming! I'll give the VPN Director another go tonight, with the settings above! Fingers crossed it doesn't lock me out again...

Hi @eibgrad I've now moved onto the latest Merlin Firmware, 386.7_2. Assuming everything is how it should be and the other problems we were discussing have gone away, the following should work correctly right? Just to take the firestick off the VPN client, but everything else goes through the...

Famous last words, i've lost my 5Ghz wireless, though waiting to see if this is me tinkering with the channels or if it's because of the update? I've rebooted twice, but so far it hasn't returned... Watch this space EDIT - It's now working and is the fastest i've ever had! I switched on 160 Mhz...
