    How to isolate AP clients/guests from rest of network?

    First of all, I just realized I probably posted this in the wrong forum. If so, my apologies, and hopefully this thread can be moved to its proper home. Anyway, I'm still becoming familiar with Merlin, but I've now got guest WiFi setup with intranet isolation enabled. I haven’t had any time to...

    How to isolate AP clients/guests from rest of network?

    I was initially thinking of trying it this way, but I've also read elsewhere that one NAT router behind another can sometimes cause problems for certain devices/apps. Is that something to be worried about? Hopefully this weekend I can get some time to test it out.

    Secure, reliable, wireless router for CenturyLink fiber home network

    I'm in SLC actually, and Google Fiber is probably the only reason CenturyLink and Comcast have started stepping up their game. Google isn't available at my house (yet), but I'm just glad I have an excuse to finally ditch Comcast.

    I've spent some time Googling this already, but I'm still unclear as how to best accomplish this. I have an older Asus RT-N16 I just flashed with Merlin, and I'd like to use it as a secondary AP on my existing home network. That itself is simple enough, but I'd also like to use this AP to...

    I've found some other helpful forum threads elsewhere, and they confirm what you guys have said about PPPoE and its effect on throughput. It also seems I should be able to use an Asus router flashed with Merlin (probably even my RT-N16) to replace the CL Technicolor C2100T. I wanted to share my...

    Secure, reliable, wireless router for CenturyLink fiber home network

    I definitely appreciate all the helpful feedback, and I’m leaning towards Asus again. Based on the blog I originally linked, I’m fairly confident I can get both the Netgear R7000 and Asus RT-AC68U to work as a replacement for the CenturyLink router. My primary concern is their longevity, based...

    Secure, reliable, wireless router for CenturyLink fiber home network

    CenturyLink has just rolled out a new fiber network in my area (Utah, USA), and they just finished their installation at my house. I am signed up for their 100/50 Mb plan, but at some point I might upgrade to 1 Gb. Their setup includes an ONT which in turn is connected to a (rebranded?) CL...
