Cheapest one that I know about is a Linksys EA8300 Tri band router for $99.97 at Staples. https://www.staples.ca/products/2707797-en-linksys-ea8300-max-stream-ac2200-mu-mimo-tri-band-wi-fi-router But you have to shop in person (use https://stocktrack.ca/ to find inventory near you) Do NOT get...

I believe that channels 149, 153, 157, 161 are also non-DFS so maybe your Firestick would accept one of these.

Its not a problem to be concerned about. See RFC 3927 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3927) Appendix A for explanation

I know you already have it working, but .... Did you try IPV6 type native with DHCP-PD off? That should handle the ISP dynamically for the WAN address and gateway, and let you manually configure the LAN side.

The fe80:: syntax is processed by dnsmasq running on your router. It has no information about the interfaces of the ISP's router and therefore cannot change the fe80:: into the numbers used the the ISP, that is why you cannot use the short form for the WAN gateway. Dnsmasq can and does manage...

I suspect that the problem is that the Prefix length cannot be the same on the WAN and LAN or the Prefix must change slightly. Also the gateway cannot be fe80::1. It needs to be the address given by the ISP which will contain more non-zero fields What I would try is: If you know how to login to...

The reason the two networks must be different is how routing is handled. If the PC thinks the address is on the local network, it sends a ARP broadcast on the local network for the device, no reply means device is offline. If the PC thinks the address is on a different network, it forwards the...

Your problem is using the same network for the management interface on vdsl modem and the LAN on the N66U (both on 192.168.1.x). Change the LAN network on the N66U to something else like 192.168.9.1

I just had my IPV6 network probed at IPs ending "::1" for ports like 22, 80, 161. I was wondering if there is a way to change the IPV6 address assigned to the router LAN interface to be something other than the default ending ::1?

Worked after " insmod xt_length" thanks

Yes chain exists and router rebooted. My logdrop chain looks like iptables -nvL logdrop --lin Chain logdrop (17 references) num pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 1 0 0 LOG !icmp -- * * 0.0.0.0/0...

Error messages are iptables: No chain/target/match by that name ip6tables: No chain/target/match by that name Yes this logically in wrong chain and the command has been reduced to minimum to show error. I picked logdrop chain so that if someone tries it, it will not cause any problems for...

I am testing iptables and ip6tables on V26E3 and having some problems ... iptables -A logdrop -m length --length 1000:65535 -j DROP does not work, but iptables -A logdrop -m length --help shows the length module command's syntax so I think the module is available Same for ip6tables...

You said that devices configured statically connected to the WinXP work correctly getting INternet access. You are configuring more than just the IP address on the device, but setting the gateway and DNS servers. Am I right? Assuming yes answer .. try the following. Leave the RT-N66U in...

I am looking at the IPv6 page and have selected Connection type =Native DHCP-PD = Enable But where is the option to select the WAN IPv6 address to be either Stateless (Auto configured) or request it from the ISP? ( From the dhcp6c.conf man page, when ia-na is specified, dhcp6c will initiate...
