    RP-AX58 for AiMesh has some serious flaws

    Do these devices ship with multiple (swappable) plug tops? I'm in Australia and currently Amazon is offering a great price with free shipping from the UK but has a caveat that an adapter may be required.

    Great feedback thanks Kemain.

    Mesh options for RT-AX88U

    Yes Amazon already has them listed although Out of Stock so they are not quite ready yet. If I were to get something I'd wait for them.

    Not particularly. Tried already, but I get your point, I'll leave it.

    Mesh options for RT-AX88U

    Ok, so the message I am getting is if I want to get the benefit of a mesh setup, I need to build a mesh network comprised of mesh routers, not 1 mesh router and mesh extenders which is not much different than what I have now. Thanks for the Repeater suggestion, it was the one I called out in...

    Mesh options for RT-AX88U

    You can but my understanding is that the device does not automatically select the network as generated by the repeater. I read that was one of the strengths of the mesh, it expands the existing network that allows dynamic node selection by the device as opposed to generating an extension of it.

    Mesh options for RT-AX88U

    Thanks guys appreciate the feedback. Yes ideally I'd just place another Mesh Router but its going to be cost (and aesthetically) prohibitive, apologies I should have mentioned budget. I currently have a D-Link DAP 1650 repeater servicing the dead area but it's a bit hit and miss and a pain for...

    Mesh options for RT-AX88U

    Hi everyone. Have an RT-AX88U, very happy with it but due to its (unfortunately necessarily) poor location I have a couple of dead spots in the house so am looking at Mesh options. The RP-AX56 looks quite good, does anyone have this combination working well and can recommend it? I've also seen...

    VPN Best Practice query

    Hi everyone. Running an OpenVPN server on my RT-AX88U so I can access a couple of home server instances from off my network. Would I be better to 1) maintain separate networks for my LAN and VPN and route between them or 2) put them on the same network and the VPN in its own subnet or doesn't...

    OpenVPN Client

    Yes lots on the Nord site re Kill Switch options, but none specific to a Router. Nord tells me the option does not exist on a router, only apps.

    OpenVPN Client

    Nothing there from what I can see but appreciate your input. I may just have to delete the profile.

    OpenVPN Client

    Thanks eibgrad, I assumed it was something like a kill switch but cannot locate it. I am using stock firmware, any ideas where to look?

    OpenVPN Client

    Morning all. I have a RT-AX88U configured with a NordVPN client using OpenVPN. All working well, except that when I disable the VPN client I lose internet. Seems it is forcing me to use it whether it is enabled or not, some sort of Network Lock feature or similar? Like to be able to disable...
