    Asus AIMesh Guest network issues

    Can't comment on wireless backhaul. With wired backhaul guest1 works fine on main router and the AImesh nodes (AX86 and XD4 nodes x3) I have used a managed and unmanaged switch before. The unmanaged should be fine (as it will preserve all the VLAN tags) The managed should work fine too as it...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    I have upgraded to this version from an older release (possibly 388.2 beta 1 I think) Despite upgrading to 388.2 it still says on the homepage I am on 388.2 beta1 I have tried upgrading twice with the two different download links. How can i see if there is an issue with the upgrade? p.s...

    AX86U crashes with IPSEC VPN accessed from guest

    Tried leaving all the Vlan502 interfaces on br502 (and removing the asus DHCP server config from this bridge) Again, when connecting to VPN it causes a reboot after a short time period. Now tried with an OpenVpn conenction instead..... works fine! How odd - I will just use OpenVPN instead.

    AX86U crashes with IPSEC VPN accessed from guest

    AX86U Merlin 386.7_2 (with several AiMesh nodes via ethernet backhaul PPPoE fibre broadband 5ghz guest is setup as per 'services-start' script below to run on br502 with all the vlan502 and wl1.1 (5gz guest) interfaces attached (there is an external DHCP server wired to that vlan and ports 500 &...

    VLAN tagging of wireless AX86u vlanctl

    Thanks for coming back to me. It was an AX86U as per title but not in the post body. I now have this working by moving all the 502 interfaces into a different bridge as there seemed to be something in the br2 which was causing some mischief. In case it helps someone, here is the services-start...

    VLAN tagging of wireless AX86u vlanctl

    What is the command to tag all wireless activity on wl1.1 with a VLAN tag? Use scenario: - isolated 5gz guest wifi (wl1.1 on br2) - disabled DHCP for the br2 - DHCP server and gateway is connected to a managed switch on VLAN 502 When I connect to a AIMESH node guest 5gz (i.e. the traffic comes...

    Bridging WAN with Guest wifi

    I am trying to bridge a WAN port (Eth0) with my 5ghz guest wifi (wl1.1) on an AX86u The purpose is that I want my 'guest' wifi to pickup an external IP address (I can get issued multiple external IP's) but also enable the router to get it's own external IP address (all via DHCP) When I do the...

    AIMesh no DHCP Guest when on nodes (intranet disabled)

    Just to say this is resolved with me with the latest update to the Asus firmware for the ZenWifi AC Mini CD6 (now I don't need to do my hack with adding interfaces to a bridge via SSH)

    AIMesh no DHCP Guest when on nodes (intranet disabled)

    It must be very frustrating that the source code isn't out there! Do we have access to the config file that the main router sends to the nodes? (via SSH) Perhaps if I could see this I could compare what is output with stock firmware and then what is sent by Merlin version? I have had a good...

    AIMesh no DHCP Guest when on nodes (intranet disabled)

    @RMerlin would anything in the Merlin firmware impact the AiMesh or is it more likely to be something in the Asus base and we should just wait for the next version of Merlin (which will incorporate the latest Asus firmware)

    AIMesh no DHCP Guest when on nodes (intranet disabled)

    Can I confirm what devices you have for main and nodes? was is nodes on 386.4 or the main device that works? mare you on merlin for nodes?

    Asus AIMesh Guest network issues

    If you move your nodes (and then main if needed) back to stock it will be a way if isolating the issue. I appreciate it is not a 'fix' and is just a trial. (although not sure what benefit of running Merlin on nodes is)

    Finally figured out dual wan routing rules

    If anyone else is looking for a solution to disabling the secondary WAN default connection in load balancing mode here is the script I have put in /jffs/script/wan-event It means no traffic goes via secondary WAN except if an IP address rule is explicitly set in the load balancing routing rules...

    Asus AIMesh Guest network issues

    What happens if nodes are on stock firmware? What happens if main is on stock firmware too? (i.e. can we isolate if it is a stock firmware issue or is it a Merlin issue)

    Finally figured out dual wan routing rules

    I have figured out how to stop the router using Secondary Wan. ip route default nexthop via Wan1-Gateway dev ppp0 weight 9 nexthop via Wan2-Gateway dev eth0 weight 1 If I delete the default route and just add the Wan1-agteway PPP0 route back then Wan2 is never used (except...
