They should have used XenForo instead of whatever barebones software they're using.

I'm not interested in joining a forum populated by a bunch of assholes.

DSLReport's LHF forum was awful. I can't image HLF would be any better.

Some people will replace the battery once or twice, then replace the whole unit. Sort of a middle-of-the-road approach.

450 VA is certainly enough for your devices. But the real questions are the Amp-hour capacity of the battery and the efficiency of the inverter. You probably won't find much reliable information on the inverter efficiency, but you should be able to find the Amp-hour rating of the battery...

For the past few years, DSLReports has been like the spaceship on the TV show The Starlost: The crew is dead, the ship is running on autopilot and heading for a star. Maybe it finally crashed into the star.

I just have an AX68U as a router, no mesh or anything. The 5 GHz used to crap out on a random basis. Sometimes within a few hours, sometimes in a week or two. Since I updated to beta 2 on the 19th, and now the released version, I haven't had any drops. Assuming ASUS implemented some sort of a...

So right after I update to the Merlin release, now there's an ASUS release with even newer code. :(

Looks like this works. Thanks!

I don't see any benefit for turning on private addresses for use on your own LAN. You're not tracking via MAC ID and you know what phone it is, so there's no need for privacy.

And they still will not be able to access the main network?

I have an RT-AX68U running 386.7_beta2. I have a main network with wired and wireless devices. I also have guest network 1 setup (with separate 2.4 and 5.0 SSIDs). I have Access Intranet set to disable. I see that the guest network devices run their own subnets. I use the guest network for...

It's working on my RT-AX68U. I did notice there was a delay in seeing the new IP address in the Client List on the main Network Map page. It took maybe minute for it to be updated.

Due to complaints of other family members about slow speeds and dropped connections, I went back to the old sdk5 firmware. Ugh. More pain. Restoring the old config file didn't work (no errors, it just didn't change anything), so I had to reconfigure everything by hand again. So between that...
