    RT-AX82U DNS OVER TLS

    since we're on the subject, let me (nyc) know if i did anything wrong here or there is room for improvement. according to various tsl test sites, tsl seems to be working fine. i leave everything ipv6 = disabled and blank.

    could you elaborate on what you call "stable" about the AX vs the BE 🤔

    Solved ax88u-pro: need adaptive qos advice for 5 adults on a 300/300 isp

    thanks for your concern. i'm fine eating cake, just curious to understand what other qos is available 🤔 and why some use a certain qos method. a tangent question; since various qos do not seem to classify "video and audio streaming" where does the qos logic put it all? simply dumping it...

    Solved ax88u-pro: need adaptive qos advice for 5 adults on a 300/300 isp

    this is all very interesting, but where is this "flowcache" setting in the menu tree?

    [Review] ASUS GT-AX6000 vs RT-AX88U Pro vs RT-AX86U Pro

    Tech is on to something, as usual my advice is purely anecdotal. I've read a lot of name brand smoke detectors commonly used in commercial settings work great, while i once got what was advertised to be a set of long 9dBi sticks to a short stick LinkSys router that made no different at all to...

    [Review] ASUS GT-AX6000 vs RT-AX88U Pro vs RT-AX86U Pro

    just look on amazon, plenty of ac1200 access points for ~$40 there new i just mean get something with 2-4 sticks, not just the "smoke detector".

    [Review] ASUS GT-AX6000 vs RT-AX88U Pro vs RT-AX86U Pro

    warning, old thread banter purely anecdotal advice; years ago i explored a similar need as i live across from a city park (i did not go thru with it because this park was surrounded by 7' metal fencing which acted like a Faraday cage, so the only way i could get any signal was sitting on a...

    Cake Qos Merlin best settings for warzone

    a tangent; i'm happy to read some here disable AiProtection for reasons other than avoiding metadata sharing with strangers. i ran it for years on my ac3100 and it never "protection#" anything, so i decided not to bother on my new ax-88u-pro. it did not occur to me there could be a noticeable...

    Poor WiFi Signal RT-Ax82U

    could you explain this further, as it's contrary to everything I've experienced with 5ghz. when i went from ch100 80wide to ch36 80wide, avg client dBm improved by over 2dBm. also, what does staying on the same channel have to do with anything, when most people who get equipment free from isp's...

    Solved ax88u-pro: need adaptive qos advice for 5 adults on a 300/300 isp

    good to know adaptive manual may prove better than cake in some circumstances (i only gave up on adaptive when i noticed it was not classifying streaming correctly, not because it was not qos'ing). everyone in my home who regularly fast downloads big files will usually throttle it at the...

    Solved ax88u-pro: need adaptive qos advice for 5 adults on a 300/300 isp

    i get that i won't miss hw acceleration while using 300 of a 2,500 rated router but why is cake any better than adaptive manual? for fun i switched to cake as you suggest, and it does keep my client limited. so with cake i should leave "wan packet overhead" 0,0,norm defaults alone?

    Solved ax88u-pro: need adaptive qos advice for 5 adults on a 300/300 isp

    i need some form of qos that really works, not pretty screens full of ineffective nonsense. over the years when any pc does a major os upgrade, it seems to hog all our bandwidth that knocks the vpn clients my home school and work people use offline, and then i get an earful from the wife. as a...
