    RT-AC86U - no lights (except port 4), no connectivity

    Not been on this forum in over a year since mostly ditching ASUS networking equipment for Ubiquiti Networks UniFi and haven’t looked back. However still had a 86U knocking about so took it to my office and updated it OTA to what was the latest firmware sometime in first week of June 2020. Today...

    Goodbye ASUS, I give up.

    Just done the same as you this past week. Finally disconnected both Asus routers (one doing AImesh). I've got the UniFi USG, 2 x 8-60W switches, CloudKey 2 and 3 x nanoHD WAPS. Two of the WAPs are connected in wireless mesh mode. Everything works great so far. Nice to have VLANS and ability to...

    Cloudflare warnings

    More than happy to ask them. You're quite sure it isn't something that the site operator has manually configured with cloudflare, prior to me contacting cloudflare myself?

    Cloudflare warnings

    Checked the forum via a VPN and I don't get the capture using a UK IP address. What's been the problem from Brazil, or is it just an assumption that nothing genuine can come from an IP address here, when directed toward this forum? :)

    Cloudflare warnings

    It'll be selectively applied, probably based on geo location. I had to do two captcha's just to login. I'll do a test from a UK network later to see if it's still happening there. It's very annoying here in Sao Paulo. I see a lot of sites block or restrict access from where I am. It's nothing I...

    Cloudflare warnings

    I would like to add that the Cloudflare CAPTCHA system used here makes me want to scream. I remember it being annoying when I lived in the UK. It's really bad here in Sao Paulo. Always popping up and making me have to click on squares in photos sometimes half a dozen times before I am in. Would...

    ROG Rapture GT-AC5300 (Owners)

    Thank you. Is there any way to change the backhaul bank or force it to use another? I have the following two screenshots from the GT-AC5300 interface. I am currently seeing 2.4Ghz everywhere but elsewhere I am informed that the second radio of 5Ghz is dedicated to backhaul.

    ROG Rapture GT-AC5300 (Owners)

    I am looking for some clarification about AImesh. I have a GT-AC5300 running the latest firmware and just invested in a set of Lyra's (Ac2200) which I have updated individually with the latest firmware and added them to the GT-AC5300 as AImesh nodes. I also have an RT-AC86u. I have attached a...

    [Official Beta release] Lyra series AiMesh beta support

    Has any one tried Lyra with other AI Mesh compatible routers? I have an Asus ROG Rapture GT-AC5300 as my main router and an Asus RT-AC86U running in AIMesh mode as an access point, connected using wifi backhaul. I'd like to add in additional access points, over wifi backhaul, and possibly...
