Hi, did you find out if the firewall gold Doesn't the Firewalla Gold offer a guest LAN functionality at all? Also please, is the USB port on the XT8 still working in AP mode? Thank you

Hi, I wonder if the USB port will work for attaching storage or a printer. Thanks

Why not spicing things up with a poll? :)

Hi, please vote and explain your choice and what you have implemented as an alternative. Thank you!

I'm also concern: can I trust TrendMicro? They've got hacked badly, that doesn't seem good for a security firm! So does TrendMicro knows all the websites I visit, how to prevent that but more importantly... why??? It would be nice to have a pinned discussion with all the facts and explanations...

How can Trendo Micro see my "whole" emails? Isn't https potecting my traffic??

any update?

does OpenWRT offer a nice GUI like Merlin/Asus firmaware? Thanks

Does OpenWRT offer IPS/IDS (Asus/Merlin firmware does)? I thought that Linksys could have been an higly popular choice over here by offering/advertising support for opensource firmware like OpenWRT.. I thought was a win-win, but I think people still prefere Asus and I wonder why. Thanks!

thank you all, the discussion got really interesting.. but beyond my basic networking understanding. My home network, as most I guess, has many unknown devices (guests, unsecured computers and so on) and perhaps few gadget/devices that can't be trusted. Would UPnP be a security hazard? All of...

I'm liking the RT-AC86U for the CPU while not seeing the utility for my use case of an 8 ports hub on the router (88U/3100 modells). I'm surprised there's no Asus model with WPA3 or 10G ports there yet, I guess they might show up soon :)

Sorry I should have read what I wrote before posting.. my concern was what happens without the Bitdefender box: how heavy it's AiProtection IPS, your code (if they can run together) on the Asus router CPU/RAM or if it's better to offload with such a device (but I'm tending to prefer a open...

Hi :) would adding a Bitdefender box 2 to the network a bit overkill if running Asus router with Merlin firmware + AiProtection IPS + Diversion + Skynet? (sorry I didn't read the docs yet as I might think some to these may have overlapping functionality). My concern is that all of the above...

didn't find a review on snb about version 2 which seems a huge improvement!

Hi, I read everywhere that it's a big secuiry hazard! So please if disable will I be still able to use: - my email program - torrent client - skype (or other communicaion app) - gaming console (nintentdo or sony) - nzbget - other programs that I might have forgotten ? If not, is it all about...
