    ASUS-RT-AX86U kernel protocol 0800 is buggy, dev eth7

    Same protocol 0800 is buggy, dev eth7 errors almost continuously w/beta 2 on my RT-AX86U w/IPV6 (full wipe, fresh install). Just installed beta 3, same errors. Turned of the single guest network (which didn't allow access to intranet - and since I've got no guests in the house lately, didn't...

    Force low-quality Youtube?

    Thanks for the replies on this. Definitely doesn't have to be elegant, just has to work. I decided to try and mess with bandwidth device priority some more (vs introducing a B-band router) and after a bunch of testing, was able to make it work. The iOS youtube client auto-adjusts bandwidth...

    Force low-quality Youtube?

    Hi folks- So I'm one of the 'heavy users' on Cox and am about to get overage fees (because my household uses more than 1TB/month at home thanks to the kids...). (read here if you're not familiar with their policy changes) - So much for the benefit of a 32x8 modem and a nice merlin-powered...

    UPnP - Multiple Xbox One Gaming Consoles & NAT

    Well, it happened - they couldn't play in the same game together. Here's what I saw and did this time: XboxOne#1- showed 'Open NAT' XboxOne#2-showed 'Strict NAT' 1. Attempted the hold LT + RT + LB + RB thing. Did nothing on either xbox. 2. Attempted full-rebooting each Xbox one at a time...

    UPnP - Multiple Xbox One Gaming Consoles & NAT

    Hey guys - interestingly enough, I just stumbled in as well for similar reasons. I had an RT-N66U w/Merlin's firmware running stable for years with just fw upgrades when available (a million thanks for all the work, Merlin) and had no issues with two XBox One's running behind it ever. I just...

    Block Tor network with Asuswrt-Merlin

    Without all of the back/forth, I found this thread looking to do one thing - block my underage kid from working to circumnavigate my protections and access things he shouldn't be. Talking with him has impact for awhile but he always returns to it..taking hordes of consequences in between...

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    My NAS does DLNA well (ReadyNAS NV) but my company also makes a great little solution called Skifta. It started out as an app for Android (1st DLNA-certified app for Android) and comes with a no-frills backend server DLNA/uPnP server as well.

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    And almost as quickly, they responded to my complaint, apologized again, and then gave me real information - faith restored :) (thanks, Adam)

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    Yes, I did - and the sent me a canned response just today telling me how to recover the firmware. I'm going to try the email addresses I saw in some earlier posts. (apologies if there's a follow-up to this one - catching up on the thread after being gone a few days).

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    8 days later, I finally got a response to my ticket reporting the issues I had found (that I had promised to report). All they did was give me a canned response telling me how to recover the firmware (despite me providing specific hardware & software versions and lots of fault-isolation...

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    When someone gets one of the new ones - be sure and let us know if the hardware rev is still at B1 ...

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    Just confusion in definition of accessing made clear by your '8080' comment. i thought you were referring to accessing your home network via 192.168.1.1... what you were really talking about was accessing your router admin control panel via 192.168.1.1 (vs opening up an external port) - that...

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    Yeah, a bit better. The only thing looking a little odd is that you're connecting to 192.168.1.1 via VPN from your 3G connection. I'm assuming you just meant your WAN address (or dynamic DNS hostname). When you bring up the VPN, the whole point is to provide a tunnel into your normally...

    ASUS RT-N66U - my review

    Yeah, that mention of the 10Mbps slowdown w/Tomato in this post is why I wasn't giving it a try yet. Good to hear you haven't experienced the same. I just need to sit down and run some perf tests for my own eyes, I suppose. I did find the virtual Tomato GUI and was walking through it. nice...

    Parental Controls

    Many of the newer routers have parental controls that do this well (if you're not looking to setup a proxy machine). I used a DIR-825 for years to control my son's access in the 'go to your room' scenario. Eventually, I had to control DHCP/etc. as he got more intelligent but I was always able...
