    (RT-AX86U): New network devices are not shown in the device menu/tab of the router menu/app

    I am also facing this issue of my 2 X GT6000. Every time I wire a new device it does not show up in the network map. It only shows up after a reboot of the router. Not really sure if that's the way it should work or it is a fault of the router/ firmware. Currently running Firmware:388.2_2_rog on...

    Best operation mode for AX88U

    Thank you very much for your suggestion guys. It is up and running now. The only issue I've found is the VPN server being really slow in term of speed. My parent's fibre connection is 600mbps symmetric connection, but the vpn speed does not go over 4mbps for download and around 25mbps for...

    Best operation mode for AX88U

    Thanks for the quick answer. It has already installed asus merlin, but thanks for the suggestion. On the other hand, what do I need to do in the carrier's router? I guess I only have to enable DMZ to the ip address of the Asus router and disconnect all devices from the old router. Also, disable...

    Hi guys, I plan to install one of my Asus router at my parents home. They have fibre connection via router with an integrated PON and telephone line. After some research, there is no way to use the telephone line without the provided router. The router's WIFI coverage is rubbish, so I want to...

    WAN DNS Settings: AdGuard, Ad block

    Before upgrading my AX88U to my new GT-AX6000, i was using adguard dns and successfully blocking most of the ads. After upgrading to this new router and running the latest merlin version, seems like the DNS is not blocking any ads anymore. Could anyone help me with this? See below the current...

    USB recommendations for Diversion / Skynet?

    Wondering if i really need a case for my SSD drive. I have a couple of ssd drives laying around that i would like to use with my router. I always connect them with this sort of cable. Would it be ok to use this instead of a proper case enclosure? Also, as i have 2 - GTAX6000 router, can I...

    Best firmware (Asuswrt or Asuswrt-Merlin) for GT-AX6000 router

    Thank you very much all for the responses. I think i will give it a try to both firmwares and check which one performs better for my use case. Could anyone tell me what Asus Merlin firmware should i use (latest one)?

    Best firmware (Asuswrt or Asuswrt-Merlin) for GT-AX6000 router

    I need to be able to connect some of the devices through a VPN (IPTV services) without having to manually enable VPN connection on the clients. What version should I install? The most recent one? or is there any Asuswrt stable one that I should be looking at?

    Best firmware (Asuswrt or Asuswrt-Merlin) for GT-AX6000 router

    Hi all, I have purchased 2 x GT-AX6000 routers (got a great deal at 180€ each) to replace my existing AX88U router which I will give to my parents. Just wondering what firmware version is the most stable one for these routers (can be either Asuswrt or Merlin). I really need the AIMesh to work...

    RT-AX86U as AP with AiMesh and ethernet backhaul on link aggregated WAN port?

    Why would the ax6000 be the best choice? Currently I am aiming to replace my ax88u with a multi gig network and thought about the ax88u pro, ax86u or ax6000...I think all of them share the same specs....just wondering why should I go for the ax6000 as you mentioned. Thank you
