    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    Unfortunately my budget does not support any of those. AX86S is still (AU) $400 :(

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    What would you recommend, with the features that Merlin brings to the table (Whitelist / Blacklist Wifi access, Time of day access / Block). I use the Time of day scheduling in Parental controls section to Block / Unblock certain devices when needed.

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    The Reset button that I know of, is above the power button (Above the power socket) which puts the unit in to Recovery mode (Flashing power led), but the ASUS firmware tools cannot connect to it. [edit] okay my first issue, the button on the back what I thought was WPS button, was the LED ON...

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    I would have locked all that down (Web access from LAN). I have tried the factory reset according to instructions, which is depressing WPS button when powering on and it just boots up as per normal, with all my existing settings. Unless that is not the factory reset method for the 86U I would...

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    On Ethernet, no, the only other Ethernet devices I have are the kids laptop's and they are blocked from the Internet (Unblocked as needed) and with no way to access the Web admin, I cannot unblock them. While the Laptop's have Wifi as well, Wifi is blocked from accessing Web Admin (so there...

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    I do but it is disconnected right now, and has not been an issue up until now. [edit] VPN app (Nord) closed down, still no joy.

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    192.168.1.1 is my gateway (my Desktop IP is via DHCP), Router Admin login times out.

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    Yeah I do not think it is hard resetting either, (Depress WPS while power is applied), because Wireless devices are still connecting to my WPA2 password. I have tried Router.asus.com and the direct IP 192.168.1.1 (my normal bookmark) are timing out.

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    Yeah I mean ADMIN pages. I am in the middle of a killer migraine :( Browse Internet quite fine, Admin pages are not loading at all, power cycling device does not fix it.

    RT-AC86U cannot access Webmin.

    I have a problem with RT-AC86U with Merlin firmware (Not latest, maybe a year old or so). I couldnt access the webmin, connection timed out, waiting too long. Rebooting does not fix it. Recovery mode (Reset button until power led flashes) with ASUS Firmware and recovery tool, doesn't access the...

    Asus RT-86U addon recommendation.

    Thank you for your reply. I do not know where you think the front door and a device uploading data across a network is in the same context, I merely asked if there was a way, either through Plugin, or through SSH command to determine if the traffic is indeed Encrypted or not. I bet you are a...

    Asus RT-86U addon recommendation.

    Thank you for your reply. I know it is uploading, at up to 3mbit a second, and there is 2 devices (I have 10mbit upload), so right now, I have them capped at 100 kilobit each (the lowest that the Asus Firmware will allow me to go), and the devices still seem to be "Oh cool I have Internet, so i...

    Asus RT-86U addon recommendation.

    I have a couple of devices that the manufacturer says needs net access, but they cannot confirm if the data is encrypted or not. Is there any addon, or even option in Merlin's firmware, for me to see what data is coming from those devices, if it is ENCRYPTED, and to what destination ? Would...
