    Advice Needed for Isolating My Network Setup From Landlord's Network

    Good catch on his RT-AX53U firmware version being a match with the RT-AC86U's; I was unaware that AX routers *didn't* have 388, but I was only looking at current ones.

    Advice Needed for Isolating My Network Setup From Landlord's Network

    My understanding was that the AC firmware was only updated for security patches at this point. To be clear, I don't work for ASUS nor have privvy to their equipment. RT-AC86U isn't EOL'd to my knowledge, but if AC firmware isn't getting the new AiMesh features, it's definitely been deprecated...

    > My network will have its own Wi-Fi setup using Asus RT-AC68U and RT-AX53U routers. Were you planning to use AiMesh? Wouldn't the AX router need be the master?

    MoCA POE Filter Goes Where in Picture?

    House was built in 2004 so it predates MoCA 1.0 (2006), 1.1 (2007), 2.0 (06/2010), & 2.5 (04/2016). Wire/coax has not been rerun. Comcast service technician changed something (likely splitter) early on during troubleshooting call but unsure what -- it wasn't considered expensive whatever it was...
