    Challenge with tunneling internet for WG site to site from the server side

    Reversing the tunnel is exactly what I used to do in the past with OpenVPN. I have public IPs for both sites so this was the least effort solution in terms of both implementation and maintenance. This time since I have upgraded routers and Wireguard was supported by all, I though it may be...

    Challenge with tunneling internet for WG site to site from the server side

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts. All right. I get there is no OOB GUI based solution and I want to keep the solution low maintenance hence I am not going to script for this use case. Thinking out loud: Perhaps we should be able to redirect a guest lan through a vpn using GUI though I...

    Waste of time or not...potential of upgrading AX86U

    I just replaced AX86U with BE86U. Wifi range is as good or better in my place now - I had previously issues with a Pixel 6a not being able to establish stable connection in a corner furthest away from the router. With the new one the connectivity issue is non-existent and I have not done any...

    Should I upgrade to RT-AX88U Pro?

    I am looking at AX88U Pro (not AX86U Pro) as upgrade to AC68U in terms of wifi coverage. This one is about 300 eur where I live. Based on the specs I have compared - there are more antenas, 5GHz radio is the same and 2.4 seems improved in 88. Is that going to give noticeable difference in...

    Should I upgrade to RT-AX88U Pro?

    Hello good people, I am using AX86 and AC68 in two different locations running latest Merlin. I have a very specific question regarding RT-AX88U Pro vs RT-AX86U: Shall I expect improved wifi coverage in general in case of upgrading AX86 to AX88U Pro? I understand this would be very specific...

    Solved ASUS RT-AX86U Merlin 386.4 OpenVPN routing help/ideas

    I have never tried unidirectional VPNs and frankly, in the past I had reverse server-client setup, but since I have replaced ac68 with ax86 I thought it would be smarter to use the one with more cores and native AES support as a server. From topology perspective it does not make so much sense...

    Solved ASUS RT-AX86U Merlin 386.4 OpenVPN routing help/ideas

    Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately this didn't work. I have tried to troubleshoot using a tablet instead of the chromecast. It shows "no internet" message for the wifi link. The routing table is updated upon adding an of these "route" instructions to the custom config field with the...

    Hello, I have brand new AX86 running Merlin 386.4 A site-to-site Open vpn tunnel with a client AC66U_B1 running Merlin 386.4 is working well: Traffic from and to the local networks is routed through the VPN and I can access devices on each side via the tunnel. Accessing server side internet...

    OpenVPN CPU question

    may I ask how are the OpenVPN server processes distributed across the cpu cores? I am using AX86U, AC68U and AC66B1 freshly updated to 386.4 My routers are running site to site vpn trunks and occasionally connecting to commercial vpn providers for geo-unblocking stuff. Some of my devices may...
