    aimesh guest config

    I have a AX3000 as primary router, and 2 x AC68U as nodes in the aimesh, wired backhaul, all is working but I'm slightly confused on the guest network Current config AX3000 primary - I have 2 wireless networks configured, 2.4GHz named net1 and net1_5G, all works as expected. I then created a...

    AX3000 - After restoring config password doesn't work

    I updated from Asus firmware to Merlin, I have previously updated from Asus to Asus and imported the settings configs without issue, also done the same with other Asus routers, guess I got lucky! I have quite a few static IPs, and lots of other tweaks, so using the backup was convenient. I did...

    AX3000 - port forward not working

    AX3000 - port forward working fine with Asus fw from Jan 2022, I think it was this 3.0.0.4.386.47029. I had a port forward set-up for my cameras (BlueIris), all worked fine, I could access the cameras from outside the LAN with no issue, over several years, I have also used the same...

    AX3000 - After restoring config password doesn't work

    FYI - I had to reset and manual configure everything, I restored the saved config 3 times and couldn't login every single time.

    AX3000 - After restoring config password doesn't work

    Thanks BobD, much appreciated. That was definitely not checked when I saved the config, I read that as leave unchecked to save your password, wording seems vague. I read the first line as this, if check this box you want to share your file for debugging, and you wouldn't want to share your...

    RT-AX58U as replacement for RT-AC68U AP

    I have a AX3000, which is, as I understand it, essentially the same as RT-AX58U, I also have a RT-AC68U and RT-AC66U_B1 The AX3000 is the main router the RT-AC68U configured as an AP. The reason I want for the same brand was for ease of management, maintenance and inter compatibility, I like...

    AX3000 - After restoring config password doesn't work

    I backed up the config using the tool in webUI, I then upgraded the firmware to Merlin 386.5 (2-March-2022), did I reset/reboot and then was present with the usual login screen, but it would not accept my password, so I tried admin/admin (which seem to activate the captcha) and that also didn't...

    RT-AC68U - MAC filter not working

    I'm keeping you busy today! Great explanation, and gives me a better understanding. I set the guest network a few days ago, the weird thing is this, after activating it, I immediately had all the kids wailing at me, as expected, I then added their MAC addresses, and then they could access...

    RT-AC68U - In AP mode does Merlin FW have Bandwidth Limiter

    Man, this such a good idea, I'll set this up tomorrow. Thank you! :)

    RT-AC68U - In AP mode does Merlin FW have Bandwidth Limiter

    So, what you are saying, if I've got this right, is set-up the second router in router mode, not AP, and then use firewall rules?

    More RT-AX58U woes

    So far my AX3000 has been rock solid, it took 2 attempts though, I left a review on Amazon, it's not a deep technical review or anything, but it did solve by WAN bottleneck. This review is going to concentrate on WAN and CPU performance, there are many reviews on WiFi performance, but that was...

    RT-AC68U - In AP mode does Merlin FW have Bandwidth Limiter

    Thank you both. I flashed the FW anyway, I like the Merlin FW, having said that, in AP mode there isn't much benefit. CaptainSTX - tthe B & G radio is a good idea. I already use the WiFi scheduler, I turn off the radio chipset at night, so WiFi wise it's dead. The problem, when the kids have...

    RT-AC68U - In AP mode does Merlin FW have Bandwidth Limiter

    I have a RT-AC68U FW384.15 and when you use it in AP mode the QoS, Bandwidth limiter options are not available - do any of the Merlin FW re-enable these options when in AP mode?

    RT-AC68U - MAC filter not working

    RT-AC68U FW384.15 I have the AC68 configured in AP mode, fed from AX3000. I have a guest network configured on the AC68 and the MAC filter set to ACCEPT and populated with my kids devices, all seems normal, however, when I connect my own laptop to the guest network, which is not in the accept...
