    Release ASUS RT-AC68U / RT-AC66U B1 / RT-AC1900(P/U) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_52062 (2025/10/27)

    Best way to extend range on RT-BE88U? Small dead spot that I need to get coverage to.

    Yup. What he said. You’d think (hope) that they’d make them a lot cheaper than a Router too, as they don’t have to supply FW with all the Router-related functions, but I’m not sure this is always the case.

    Merlin VLAN Manager

    OK thanks.

    WAN vs LAN DNS use with a VPN kicker.

    @Tech9 is correct, IoT threads abound, because they’re really finicky. My own 30-odd IoT devices (many of them Shelly Devices) work well with WPA2 only, 2.4GHz (no legacy or other changes) and SSID NOT hidden (if they fall off they happily reconnect), but there’s so many people finding so many...

    Merlin VLAN Manager

    Can you please expand on why not? Asus WebGui makes no differentiation as to how nodes are connected. Is there a standardized Mesh definition?

    AX ROUTERS USB PORT

    If you have enough PoE capacity at the input side and use two splitters maybe you could do it by getting a Dual PoE out like this? btw you seemed to ask the same question twice presumably at first it was a 3W device then became a 5W device.

    2.4GHz coverage with Asus XD5 mesh

    Thanks for that, good news I suppose :-). Well, I am a wee bit stumped, sorry! Unlike you, I actually do use Smart Connect, but have the luxury of Ethernet on my XD6 Nodes. The only other thing I can think of is at some stage you fiddled with Channels and the Channel Bandwidth maybe? I'm hoping...

    2.4GHz coverage with Asus XD5 mesh

    My apologies, I got so used to the (new) GNP screens I forgot how AiMesh Backhaul information should look in the 3004.386 FW. Can you see a screen with something like this, under AiMesh Toplogy, Network (I found an example in the Dongknows website when I searched for images but I am loathe to...

    2.4GHz coverage with Asus XD5 mesh

    Hmm, OK, seems like you're on to that wrt using GN1. Did you have a chance to see what band it uses for backhaul?

    YazDHCP YazDHCP v1.2.1 [2025-Oct-25] - Feature expansion of DHCP assignments (increasing limit on the number of DHCP reservations)

    Super pleased you got this going, was starting to worry about a glitch. I did make a very similar suggestion on Sunday but I think it got lost in all the traffic :). Ultimately you got a result, which is what matters.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.10 is now available

    I do not personally have these issues but feel free to check this thread for folks describing their issues with HA as a direct result of this FW, along with Merlin’s conclusion that the problem rests with Asus closed source part of the FW and is not something he can address. If you refer HA...
