    Strange connectivity problem with a 5300 & 68U mesh

    That is cheap, I will let him know. For now, I disabled the wifi on the boxes and reset everything. Now it is all working as intended. The sky boxes are connected stable AND my iphone and laptops are no longer cycling between wifi and 4G! It has definitely made a big improvement to the wifi...

    Strange connectivity problem with a 5300 & 68U mesh

    I have hard wired to the sky modem instead of the asus router. Tried both ways made no difference so left them in sky modem. I will disable the wifi from both sky q boxes and report back. It’s my bro in-laws house and doesn’t want to spend if it can be avoided Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Strange connectivity problem with a 5300 & 68U mesh

    Strange connectivity problem with a 5300 & 68U mesh

    One box wouldn’t reach so I paired it with a Sky Booster that the engineer left behind. I’m on way to screwfix to pickup 100m Cat6 and connect my sky boxes by ethernet + remove the booster... but I feel the issue with the 5300 might be something else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How to find corrent Wan Ip for remote access?

    My 5300 is on the latest Merlin FW. Would you still recommend getting a standalone modem for the job or do you think it’s ok to let the 5300 handle the modem job too? I have allowed remote access on both my setups. For VPN, do I need to purchase some IP’s? I have 22 dedicated IP’s I have been...

    How to find corrent Wan Ip for remote access?

    I have setup an RT-AC5300 and whilst I can login with 192.168.1.1 it doesn’t show me the WAN IP for remote access. WAN IP: 192.168.xx.xx Why is this? How to fix it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Seeing devices twice in mesh setup

    I think you are right! When I check via the browser login, it doesn’t show duplicates but the Asus app shows it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Seeing devices twice in mesh setup

    But they show at the same time? At my other home, i never see such issues. Maybe the node is too close to main router? Connection quality is -55dBm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It’s showing Jays iPhone and Adheels iPhone as being connected to the main router (RT-AC5300) and connected to the mesh node (RT-AC68U) and the IPs are different. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Can I add an RP-AC68U to a Mesh network?

    Ah got it, ok i think it’s safe to say it won’t be included. I’ve got two RP’s now so I’ll make use of these until something cheap pops up. Is there a list where I can see all mesh compatible devices? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    My setup: ISP: Sky 50Mbps fibre Modem: Sky Hub 3.0 Router: RT-AC5300 + RT-AC68U (mesh) I need to add 2-3 more nodes. I purchased an RP-AC68U and was told it can be meshed.. is this true? Currently doing the firmware upgrade as I couldn’t see the option for it. Sent from my iPhone using...
