    asus rt-ax86u pro slow speed after updating to merlin

    Thanks thats good advice I think I’ll do a full reset wps as you’ve said above and hopefully let the rest be. One thing I’ve noticed is that upnp is enabled by default. Is it ok to disable that after the reset?

    asus rt-ax86u pro slow speed after updating to merlin

    Ps I’ve just done a speed check just now and I’m getting 700mb, would it still be worth resetting using wps method. Not sure if this is a intermittent issue.

    Static IP issue AND VPN autostart issue

    Also does ot mean that if I use a different VPN client ie swapping between servers. I can do that if 192.168.1.1 is WAN. Otherwise it would be blocked through policy rules?
