    Asus RT-AX88U w/ Nord VPN - When setting a particular device to bypass the VPN, all device are no longer routed through VPN

    You need to ensure that you network mask does include the devices that you want your rule to apply to. But if the first two entries need to go to AN directly and the rest in the range should go through your VPN this should work. If you have device that are OUTSIDE of 192.168.1.0/24 then those...

    Asus RT-AX88U w/ Nord VPN - When setting a particular device to bypass the VPN, all device are no longer routed through VPN

    You need something like this. One rule for the exclusion targeting your device exception IP address using WAN as interface and another one with a CIDR block (IP range) using your VPN interface. Since WAN IF takes precedence it doesn't matter whether your exception device is in that range.

    Policy based routing

    I noticed that Policy based routing seems to be a general feature of the Asuswrt-Merlin firmwares. Does it mean that all Asuswrt-Merlin capable routers now have the ability to act like VPN Fusion capable devices ? I quickly read about the Policy based routing feature and it looks like VPN...

    ASUS RT-AX89X AX6000 Custom firmware

    Thanks for the advice. The reason I prefer using 'native' ports is that I don't want to share the port bandwidth of a single port on the router among multiple devices. I wouldn't mind if they were 10Gb but it's not the case. Maybe I'm being too conservative :/

    ASUS RT-AX89X AX6000 Custom firmware

    If I may, is there a specific reason why you don't want to support it ? I currently have a GT-AC5300 and wanted to upgrade to Wif6 so I bought one. My main problem with all other Asus routers is the lack of LAN ports. I really need those 8 ports. Anyway, thanks a lot for the great work and...

    RT-AX89X support ?

    I was wondering whether Asuswrt-Merlin would support the RT-AX89X router ? I don't see it on the downloage page, hence my question. Thank you/Merci!
