    try the edgerouter support forum at https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX/bd-p/EdgeMAX. You will probably have to post your configuration to get any help with your problem. It could also be a problem with your unfi configuration

    Entropy Pool

    There's this: http://ubld.it/products/truerng-hardware-random-number-generator/ No experience with it, but it got a good review on one of the hardware hacker sites earlier this week

    Opinions on EdgeRouter X?

    I switched from an ASUS AC66 to the ER-X a while ago. I've been very happy with it. I have a FIOS 50/50 connection which is actually provisioned at 55/55. I use the smart QoS set to 50/50 and I get 49/49 on the DSL Reports speed test with bufferbloat of A running the test from my laptop over...

    Problem with ipv6 not working for clients

    without lots more data (routing tables, traceroutes, etc) there's no way to know. anyway its comcast /shrug After I wrote the other reply, I saw your other question, why a separate prefix for delegation? I don't know the answer, and never really thought about it before, but now I'm curious. I...

    Problem with ipv6 not working for clients

    comcast uses "prefix delegation" for its customers. They supply a separate prefix to your router via DHCPv6 and your router passes out addresses with that prefix out to your clients using "stateless auto-configuration" (SLAAC) or optionally, DHCPv6. If you like this sort of thing and want to...

    REQUESTING HELP PLEASE: Use of uQMI Protocol on ASUSWRT-MERLIN

    freezing during the gpu test leads me to think that the firmware (the gpu code in the dos partition) isn't right for your board. Maybe for pi2? You can mount the filesystem on your pc and compare the sizes of the firmware files between your openwrt sdcard and your noobs sdcard. if they aren't...

    Fastest wired through-put Router

    Since none of the regulars have responded, I'll give you my $.02: A few months ago I demoted my AC66U running Merlin to use as just an AP, and bought a ER-X to use as a router/firewall. The ER-X SW has support for HW acceleration of IPSEC, routing and NAT and on a 50Mb/s FIOS connection my...

    NTP Server

    I was using the entware ntpd on my mips router before I retired it and it worked fine.

    @kvic, Where did you find the MediaTek SDK?

    ER-X: small is beautiful

    If you don't want to exit config mode, you can type 'up' to go out one node, or 'top' to go all the way out to the root

    ER-X: small is beautiful

    I believe the CLI is modeled after the JUNOS CLI. Its not a lot like the Cisco CLI, but if you can you use the Cisco CLI you will pick up the VyOS one in a few minutes.

    ER-X: small is beautiful

    I bought an ER-X based on the rave reviews here and I'm really happy with it. It took over all the stuff I was doing on my ASUS AC-66 running a version of Merlin's code that I hacked up and is now running a real Merlin build in dumb AP mode. I'd be very interested in seeing more info on...

    Best choice for access point?

    Yes, but... the downside to the unifi is you need the unifi controller running on a computer somewhere on your network for some of the advanced features of the unifi to work. For use as a basic AP you can run the unifi controller to setup your APs and then stop it until you want to modify your...

    Configuring IPv6 neighbor

    Apparently your ISP doesn't support Prefix Delegation, so you need to run a Neighbor Discovery Proxy (NDP is one, there are others). I can't log into my ASUS router right now to check, but I haven't run across that function in the Merlin software that I can recall, but I've never needed it...
