Site A 300/300 Site B 300/50 If site A is using VPN to make use of site B internet, site A will at best see 50/50 to the site B internet. This is because site B can only upload to its internet at 50 meaning site A sees max 50 upload. Also site B can only upload to site A at 50. Meaning site A...

I have a RT-AX86U. Just had for the second time in the last few days a Samsung phone on the network detect suspicious activity on wifi network and ask if the user wanted to disconnect from the network. Once the Samsung was my phone and this time it was my wife's phone. Both times the phone was...

Do Asus travel routers support wifi eap and wifi captive portals?

Does this Asus support wifi eap? Gl-inet does. VPN support is a core feature for travel routers, yet it appears thr Asus will not be great at that either.

time.google.com because they can surely handle and scale to any amount of users. The terms also say you can use it for commercial use etc. https://developers.google.com/time/faq

Gl-inet is not a great example of quality control of software. There is currently endless reports of bricking devices with a still recommended uboot upgrade. The uboot upgrade is to fix a problem with bricking devices due to incorrect settings used in the original uboot for years. The flint2...

If your server is behind cgnat your client won't be able to reach it. Is you wan IP in one of these ranges? 10.x.x.x 172.16.x.x - 172.31.x.x 192.168.x.x 100.64.x.x - 100.127.x.x If your wan IP is in those ranges you almost certainly are behind cgnat and will need to either contact your provider...

Maybe your Asus router is behind cgnat. Is the wan IP address on the Asus router a private IP address?

I just noticed this on mine. I had 2 devices that have this behaviour. 1 device is a Chinese solar inverter which should be on the network. This loves to reconnect every 20 seconds apparently. I have it on its own guest network with no intranet access. I don't know why it reconnects every 20...

I imagine the ddns is complaining you have a private ip on your wan interface so your reasons for having ddns may not function as expected.

I know this was a while back. When ddns detects internal ip on wan a new setting shows up for internal or external ip detection. Internal just uses the ip on the wan interface. External I assume uses stun to a Google server or something. Setting external detection should get the actual...

It is often not possible for the dns server to come from dhcp. Many devices have hardcoded dns. Dns director also historically did not control all dns queries at all, it only controlled unencrypted dns queries.

But that is the problem. If you set DNS Director to Router it will block all devices using DoT. That block is new behaviour in 388.1 To catch that FireSticks unencrypted query to 8.8.8.8 we set DNS Director to Router. But then Android devices with DoT become incompatible with the router because...

For me I had the Asus set to redirect any unencrypted DNS queries to DoT. The unencrypted DNS queries are all I wanted DNS redirection to interact with. The already encrypted DNS queries are fine or atleast unalterable. Since the 388 builds you block without option all DoT from the devices...

This assumes the dns redirection was to force users to use a Dns server the admin controls. There is another use case that the admin just wants to force encrypted dns. The dot block actual forces me to have unencrypted dns requests now either when connected via my Asus by not redirecting...
