    VLANs on Merlin in AP mode + pfSense

    Hi @Chrisgtl I purchased the Ubiquiti Unifi nanoHD AP. I installed it yesterday evening and so far I am enthousiastic. The whole VLAN config works out of the box by simply assigning a VLAN to a WiFi network. No more messing around with scripts that are a bit beyond my knowledge level ;). One...

    VLANs on Merlin in AP mode + pfSense

    @coxhaus Just curious... how do you put the port in trunk mode and which port would that be? What command should be used?

    VLANs on Merlin in AP mode + pfSense

    I decided today to leave the Asus ecosystem and switch to Ubiquity, which supports VLANs in a simple way.

    VLANs on Merlin in AP mode + pfSense

    I hope somebody can help me figure out what I do wrong... My setup is as follows: I have a pfSense box that is connected to a Cisco SG-250 10P managed switch on port 1 in trunk mode. My Asus RT-AC5300 is in AP mode and is also connected to the Cisco on port 2, also in trunk mode. I have several...

    Wireless hosts cannot see each other... intermittently

    Well, I finally dared to reconfigure the whole router today, including certificates for VPN, extensive DHCP fixed hosts setup, etc... Let's see what happens.

    Wireless hosts cannot see each other... intermittently

    I was afraid somebody would say that... But I guess you are right. Although I would have rather done it understanding better what the actual issue was... Still seems a weird thing for a digital device to act intermittently. Hope it is not the hardware itself. Will put myself to the job of...

    Wireless hosts cannot see each other... intermittently

    Hi Eibgrad, I think it is already there for a long time. Some IP cams were not always visible from my iPhone, but my Synology recorded them properly. So I never gave it much attention, but recently I have bought 2 AirPlay speakers and now it became annoying and that made me starting to try to...

    Wireless hosts cannot see each other... intermittently

    Dear community, I am seeking your help in debugging a strange issue I have been encountering recently and am trying to pin down. I can see wireless hosts from other devices connected by cable. But I cannot see the same host from any wireless device. And not even from the ping tool in the...

    100% cpu usage on core 1 of AC88U

    For all you suffering from the 100% CPU issue: I can state that my issue is resolved now. After almost 1 week the CPU % is still normal, usually it would go crazy within one day. So: if your CPU is going crazy without a clear reason, SSH into your router, and run the top command. If you see...

    100% cpu usage on core 1 of AC88U

    I am currently doing an experiment on my AC-5300, I disabled SmartConnect (which is mandatory if you want to set manual control channels) and I set all control channels to manual. If I understand the workings of the ACSD process correct, this process is meant to search for the best automatic...

    100% cpu usage on core 1 of AC88U

    Hey firebladRR1k, can you share how Asus support was able to help? Did they suggest some parameter change or did you have you your unit replaced? @RMerlin, were you able to distill a root cause out the supplied top overviews? As many over here, I am experiencing the same. I saw the acsd process...

    Port forwarding not working on RT-AC68U

    For me the initialize did not work, the restore did the trick. I afterwards restored the config I saved before and now it works like a charm.

    Port forwarding not working on RT-AC68U

    Hi Florin, I upgraded yesterday to 384.3 and found that before I did a 'restore to factory defaults', all kind of weird behavior was happening, e.g. with storing certificate info, etc. Did you do a restore to factory defaults after your install? If not, you can give that a try.

    RT-AC68U slowing down every day

    My Asus RT-AC68U works fine, I really love it. However, in the past months I have noticed that the router gets slower and slower every day. After I reboot the router, it is back at its normal speed. The slowness typically shows when surfing the web from iPad or iPhone. When I do a speedtest...
