Interesting. When the download test is running I see: Core 1: 58% Core 2: 90% The RT-AC66U_B1 shows a TX rate of 1300 mbps and a RX rate of 1053 mbps The Intel AC-9560 shows a TX rate of 867 mbps and a RX rate also of 867 mbps Is it the CPU the bottleneck? My old RT-N66U with 450 mbps link...

My desktop computer is connected to the bridge via an ethernet cable.

I've got 2 routers, and a 1 GB internet connection A RT-AC86U as my main router A RT-AC66U_B1 in media bridge mode configuration The AC66U_B1 shows that it is connected to the AC86U at 1300 mbps. But when I run multiple speed tests, the best I can seem to achieve speed wise is 600 mbps with...

I'm interested in using PIA with an openVPN connection on my router. I currently have a RT-N66U, and its speed while connected to PIA is only around 10 Mbps. I was told on this forum quite some time ago this is because of the RT-N66U's slow(er) CPU. So my question is simply what is the...

So I have a little problem. I use my cable TV service to watch TV while on the road. But some of the channels will not allow someone to watch live TV unless connected to the local network. So while I was in the States, I set up an OpenVPN server and downloaded the certificate. When I was out...

Is there a simple way to have the router send a WOL command daily at a given time? I'd like to be able to wake a computer in the middle of the night so that I can initiate a weather model run... I have a RT-N66U router, firmware version 380.62_1. Thanks for any advice...

Just thought I'd update this in case anyone is interested. The second Asus RT-N66R (quite the deal too at $59 refurbished from Microcenter) worked perfectly in media bridge mode. So I have the 2 Asus routers connected wirelessly over 5G, and my 4 desktops hardwired into the 2nd router in the...

OK - I am quite new to networking. I have a bridge question. Current setup: A RT-N66U in my living room where the cable modem is located. But I have 3 computers located in a different room that a have connected to a switch, which is connected to the N66U with an ethernet wire running across...

Do you have any recommendations for a router that can handle a OpenVPN connection at my ISP speeds of 180 Mbps?

Sorry! Its a RT-n66u...

I recently configured PIA using directions they provided for the Merlin Firmware. Its working - but it appears the speeds are limited to 10 Mbps. When I turn the OpenVPN client off, my speeds return to better than 100Mbps. Am I missing something in the router settings? Also - I'm curious to...

Just curious. I recently bought a n66u and updated the stock firmware before I knew about the backward flashing limitation. Does this mean that the n66u can not be eventually supported? I want to take it back if it can't!
