Partially yes.
Clients will send identifier with the DHCP request. And DNS server will not see that.
But for certain devices (like a storage or a server) you can assign static IPs in the DHCP server in Asus and register that name in the DNS server.
Not too complicated, but clearly name...
You can configure the router not to advertise itself as DNS server. Under LAN->DHCP Server you can turn off "Advertise router's IP in addition to user-specified DNS".
That should avoid a "mad client" messing up the router with many DNS requests. Some torrent clients are stupid enough by defaul...
I may be using AiMesh for too long, but early days it was documented discovery is only done over Wifi.
I build a setup where the 2 devices couldn't seen eachother over wifi. And ethernet cable in between didn't help at all. I had to bring node close.
Older firmware, agree. But even when I...
Considering the flood of "strenghtening" across all platforms, it's a safe guess this is a fix for a to-be-announced 0day.
And you're right, some platforms got some new enhancements back in Aug/Sep. Likely time for AXE16000 will come to add those.
But for now they had to bump up the security fixes.
Although I would assume it's a wide agreement AC86U was one of the best work horses Asus could dream for, it's not ideal at all to combine an AX with an AC. Different capabilites, different modulation, clients will struggle. More or less visible.
Connection Quality should be Great if you have...
I prefer to lose the node rather than fall back to wireless backhaul and me not knowing in the wall cable broke down. Working or not working, I don't want that grey area in the middle.
And having only those 2 routers, I don't need to enable any compatibility.
If someone already added this information, appologies.
I do have 2xAXE16000, one router and one node. And finally I was able to run a cable between those 2. Wireless backhaul was doing alright, but not great. And I had to do this.
After cabling done, for reason I can't understand, on the node I...
While connected to OpenVPN, use
ping -f -l 1500 internal_ip from a windows machine
ping -M do -s 1500 on Linux
Most Linux distros will return the maximum MTU, but ultimately by try&error you'll see what's the maximum MTU supported.
Also logs of the OpenVPN client are helpful in showing tunnel...
Are you transporting over TCP? Or UDP?
In the past I tried TCP, but I found it not working reliably due to MTU issues. Especially when WAN is PPPoE and connecting from some mobile operators that are using small MTU.
Protocol=UDP works quite well and I used it and still use it, across several...
All my phones and my laptops are connecting to 6GHz on both router and node.
I do share same SSID across all radios so I'm relying on smart connect. It's working just fine as before and as expected.
No one what?
Most times people write to complain, not to report no problems.
I did the upgrade on both router and node and everything is working as good as before.
You mean OpenVPN server running on Asus?
I do and it works properly when connecting from my Android phone or from my laptop. No issues here, it was working on 3.0.0.4 and it kept working on 3.0.0.6 (including the release from 10 April) without me changing anything in the configuration.
What browser are you using?
I don't use traffic analyzer, but Chrome runs really well for me for the 3 scenarios you're talking about.
I guess my sugestion is to try a different browser or different version.
PS: I saw in the UI that is the first time I used speed test from my router since Feb...
