    ASUS RT-AC68U CPU 100% with video files on USB disk

    Yesterday I tried to format the drive with ext4. It did work slightly better, faster, I managed to upload some movies but very soon the router got stuck on 100% CPU again. Arrrrrgh... I give up. ASUS routers are BAD for NAS. I'll buy a dedicated home NAS like Synology.

    ASUS RT-AC68U CPU 100% with video files on USB disk

    Colin, there's been a mixup in units: when I'm talking about partitions I mean TB, when I'm talking about files I mean GB. Anyway, yesterday I formatted the 6TB disk with two 3TB NTFS partitions.

On play the router would peak at 100% for about 20-30...

    ASUS RT-AC68U CPU 100% with video files on USB disk

    Hello. I've got an ASUS RT-AC68U (Merlin 384.7_2) with a 6GB disk (NTFS) hooked over USB3 port. The disk is mounted and shared and I can access it with a PC over home network. I can browse all the shares normally as long as they don't include any video files. If I try to open a shared folder...

    QNAP vs Synology software experience

    Hello, I'm asking anyone of you owners of any Qnap or Synology NAS to write your personal experience using your NAS's software. What do you really like but mostly what are the negative points: is it buggy, missing features, where does it fall short... We are in a point of buying a new office...
