Look in the WiFi setup section. It's in one of the tabs, maybe the Pro one.

The mobile WiFi devices (clients) cling to the access point they're connected to until it becomes so weak as to be useless. Then they search for another AP to connect to. I have tried what you have in my house and it was unsatisfactory. The best you can hope for is to find AP's that have a...

heysoundude, I checked reddit and that's not my post. Similar, but not me.

No. Is there a solution there? Or did my post get copied?

I am setting up a Moto G5+ phone running Android Oreo to use with my RT-AC68U in dual WAN failover mode. Running Merlin 380.69_2. I'm planning on having it as backup for the times I lose my primary cable internet service (not often) or if the exterior cable feeding the house gets cut. I count...

Definitely senior moment.... And the Synology UPS support acts like a NUT server so running NUT clients, in my case WINNUT on W10 & W7 machines, controls their shutdown upon notice from the NAS.

I'm sorry. Brain fart... The USB-B is on the UPS and it connects to the standard USB-A on the NAS. I just set up two Synology's with UPS's. You'd think I'd know one end from the other. :rolleyes:

Notice that it does not have the USB B type connector that other Synology NAS's have to support connecting a UPS directly for shutdown control.

Blaze9, Question on WiFi roaming in your setup. I have one EAP225V3 in my network along with two Asus routers running Merlin, with one set up as an AP and a RT-68 as the network router/3rd AP. I see the latest firmware on the EAP225 supports fast roaming and I'm thinking of going all EAP225...

Look up BlueIris security software from blueirissoftware.com. Their program is reasonably priced and will monitor a huge variety of IP cameras in addition to having generic settings for non-listed cameras. It can record locally or remotely, motion detect, and many other features.

I enjoy automating my home but am beginning to have concerns that what I am doing is going to impact sellability when non-techie buyers evaluate the house. I have network switches in various rooms for multiple IP devices, several wifi access points, a commercial alarm system interfaced to an...

I thought it might be something like that. It looks like a dedicated AP that has vlan capability, managed switch, and a router to match is the way I'll need to go. Thanks for the quick response, RMerlin. And for your work on the firmware.

I'd like to get confirmation of what I'm seeing when I use my Asus RT-AC66U routers in access point mode and enable guest wifi. I have a home network of an RT-AC68P for the main router with two RT-AC66U's running in access point mode and hardwired to a 24 port switch. They're all running...

So that's where they're hidden. Thanks, Veky.

Is it possible to copy an automatically added client icon from one device description to another? I'm referring to the square icon that appears at the left of the description of devices in the Client Status listing and the Static DHCP listings. I have three identical Dell Optiplexes on my...
