    My new Asus 86u - LAN boost?

    Thank you so much. FlexQoS it is! I'll order that USB right now. Truly appreciate it. I'd ideally like to turn off the wifi and use it only as a LAN signal, but without having to turn off "Radio Signal" because then I can't sign back into the router.

    My new Asus 86u - LAN boost?

    Okay, I'm about to order a USB drive for my router, but after checking your (amazing!) guide, I have a few (stupid) questions: 1. does it have to be a USB 2.0 drive or can I use a 3? In your guide, you say to choose 2.0 in the options 2. Will changing ports disrupt the VPN functions? You say...

    My new Asus 86u - LAN boost?

    I don't need wifi with this router - would bridging it be okay? Would I maintain a VPN connection while speeding up the router? Any way to disable wifi might help? I only need it for a LAN connection.

    My new Asus 86u - LAN boost?

    Great! I'm going through your M&M settings and applying those now. My problem is that while connecting to my VPN server (which is a city away), my friends are saying that my voice is breaking up. Just wondering if there's any obvious things to turn off so I can maximize this beautiful Asus'...

    My new Asus 86u - LAN boost?

    Also, how do I make my gaming connection as fast as possible while using a LAN cable? Are there any settings I can go into and disable that will make connection faster?

    My new Asus 86u - LAN boost?

    I bought this router so I can VPN my PS4. Is the LAN boost a useless or useful option? I've installed RMerlin's firmware, but is there anything else I'm missing that are obvious things to turn off or opt on in the router settings? All of this is over my head! Any assistance to help me make my...

    The rmerlin donation thread.

    Hey guys! I was recommended to use RMerlin's firmware for my new Asus ac-86u arriving in the mail today - where would I find the link to that firmware and how could I donate a lil bit to him? Just having difficulty finding the links!

    What VPN router is best suited for me?

    Hey L! Sorry to bother, but I was wondering where I could find an RMerlin download? Does it work that way? I have your Asus/Merlin trouble shooting guide up here and I'm getting my router from Amazon today.
