I have 3 Ubiquiti UAP AC Pros scattered around my 2200 sq ft home and they are awesome. Seamless roaming without any settings to worry about. Devices that need to roam are an iPod touch, iPhone 6, 6s and 7. If you get their USG firewall, you can watch the events log and it shows you what device...

I have a unique situation. I just received a Unifi Secure Gateway and I really like the deep packet inspection on it. But I really like my Asus with your firmware for parental control, client dns base filtering, OpenVPN and AiCloud. I put the Asus in AP mode after the firewall but I loose all of...

Take a look at this site: https://graph-na02-useast1.api.smartthings.com/login/auth Cool behind the scenes info on your SmartThings.

I use a rt-ac3100 as my main router and the rt-ac88u in access point with all SmartThings with no problems at all. I know they are not HomeKit but my setup works.

Do the QoS Traffic classification Statistics reset every time you logout?

UPNP Server is not working on my rt-ac3100 with a Lacie drive plugged in via usb 2. It worked perfect on .64. I can see the server in VLC but none of my videos appear. I can use AICloud just fine.

To block VPN, you could go to the WAN tab, NAT Passthrough and disable all of the options. I'm not sure what else this will effect though and I do not know what they all do. Also, under LAN, Switch Control, NAT Acceleration can sometimes cause Parental Controls not to work properly. You could...

I tried this and the new r9000. I like to tinker with the interfaces, etc. I returned them both within one day. I just cannot get passed how slow Netgear's interface is. My current setup is Asus rt-ac3100 and a 87u as a access point both with the latest merlin firmware. I also had trouble with...

Give Open DNS a try. Its free. If you are using Merin's firmware, in the WAN settings, change your DNS to Open DNS then go to AiProtection, DNS Filtering. In here you have a choice of 4 filters. I use OpenDNS Family and add my kids to the client list. On Open DNS website you can set even more...

Thanks RMerlin. I figured as much. :)

I have a Asus rt-ac3100 which I love. I downloaded wifi explorer for the mac which shows all networks nearby and their speeds, etc. My router only show a max rate of 600 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 1733 Mbps on 5 GHz. The rt-ac3100 should be showing 1000 Mbps and 2165 Mbps. How do you get wifi explorer...

What do you mean by locked down? If you install this you cannot reflash to Merlin or older firmware or something else.

I have battery drain on my samsung tablet. It's bad. I can go to bed at 10pm and the tablet will lose all power by morning.

I have Time Warner 35mbps and I do not use QOS. No issues with 2 apple tvs, 2 adroid tablets, 2 iphones and 2 imacs. Running merlins 380.59 beta 1 with mu-mimo enable even though I have no devices that support that.

Try setting the service order of the network connections on the Mac. Go to System Preferences, Network, click the gear at the bottom and choose set service order. Then put the services in the order you want them. This is just a suggestion I got from apple last year as I had a laptop that when...
