    RT-AC68U in Media Bridge Mode losing connection to main router

    Just wanted to add that bridge mode in AC68 seems to break whenever multicast/upnp/DLNA traffic starts to flow. It seems a very common problem. However in repeater mode you wont't have any packet lost, dropped connection, .. but you will loose "passthrough" of DLNA/upnp packets from wired to...

    Speed up boot time ?

    Thanks for the suggestions. Last week I left the router on 24/7 but I just don't need so many hours to be on. Maybe 6-8 hours a day, at most, no more. I'll take a look to the DFS channels, but I'm not sure if it'll speed up the boot enough.

    Speed up boot time ?

    Hi. I'm now using the AC66_B1 router mainly as a bridge/repeater. The TV, receiver, nas, tv-box ... are connected through the lan ports (fixed IP) and the router connects all of them through wifi 5G to my main home wifi isp router. Hence I don't it switched on all day, only a few hours. But...

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    @pdc I haven't done any more specific configs. Repeater mode is working well with a totally stable behaviour. Just to mention that upnp doesn't cross very well the repeater and the wan Ethernet port isn't usable as a pure lan port (maybe a few commands to redefine vlan/internal bridge could...

    Client Mode (AP)

    The closest to that config should be the "bridge mode". Not exactly what you are looking for but give it a try.

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    That option doesn't seem to work. The 5g band SSID must be in the same channel that the wifi link SSID from the main router. I've just moved a bit the 2.4g and 5g channels. The wifi link is established between 702mbos and 866mbps and the lan clients connected the repeater get between 350mbps...

    Certainly it seems that repeater mode doesn't allow me to disable the SSIDs in any way.

    At this moment in repeater mode I'm unable to find a web page (hidden or public) to disable the SSIDs...

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    Yes. I tested the test3 version in pure bridge mode with no luck. Multicast traffic killed the bridge. So I set the repeater mode and it works well, with the minor issue about some upnp/DLNA but I'm still not sure which causes it. Maybe the DLNA server itself since from the main wifi dlna...

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    @john9527 I've tested the firmware too and it seems very stable. I was just wondering if there is a command line to disable/delete the SSIDs I don't plan to use (MediaHub /MediaHub5g). Doing that, not only hiding them, will "virtually" transform the repeater mode in a "bridge" from the user...

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    I use different SSIDs in the Asus/repeater but I also hide those ones to avoid confusion inside my home. In this case I called those SSID "MediaHub" and "MediaHub5g"… just in case, I could need them. In the ISP router I enabled a second, but also hidden, SSID in the 5ghz band called...

    You are right I get that message too. I still haven't put time trying to solve it.

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    After a bunch tests I finally got it working using the repeater mode as @JDB and @agilani suggested. High chances my first tests in repeater mode went bad due to some mistakes in the config. Now I'm using @john9527 suggested firmware. Good enough for me at this moment. Speed is pretty good...

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    No, I don't. But there have been some issues with "Sonos" (though I have HEOS and DLNA) networks and TeamViewer in other setups, with this kind of router. Which frustrates me is that the WDS link with the old TpLink wrt841 works flawlessly… I think some Asus driver/routine/…. just overflows or...

    Unable to use AC66_B1/AC68 U as a reliable media bridge (solved)

    @john9527 Thanks a lot for the link and the build. I've started to testing it but sadly without luck. I've done a new reset to start a totally fresh setup and I'll try a few configs. Like @JBD stated, it could be due to multicast traffic. It seems that my Linux, due to TeamViewer or to...
