    Solved rt-ac68u fw 386.5 one device connected with no access to internet

    :) in fact I don't know, I assume (as I connected lan cable only on the LAN part of it) that disabling all I can in the gui and not routing to a non existing modem would be enough. It worked for years in that way so I forgot this device could be involved. :cool: I'm getting old

Setting the phone mac address on random (this can be done on the samsung smartphone) allow it to access internet. If I select the original mac address of the phone, I get...
