    Why DNS over TLS is so important, and if you are not using it you should be

    Huh, I'll have to test that out. Thanks for the heads up

    Why DNS over TLS is so important, and if you are not using it you should be

    What’s interesting about this is I have Cloudflare and Google DNS set up for both IPv4 and IPv6 (with Cloudflare being listed first). However, running this test from this site kept showing Google as being listed. Does the order in which you add DNS servers not actually correlate to which your...

    WPA2-Personal vs WPA2/WPA3 Personal

    Can confirm that so far, WPA2/WPA3 mode has been working fine (for reference again, GT-AX6000 and I have mostly have AC and AX devices). I do have a decent amount of newer IoT devices that I put on a guest network (which is WPA2-Personal only), but not because they weren't operating correctly in...

    WPA2-Personal vs WPA2/WPA3 Personal

    Is there a way to determine which devices are using WPA2 and WPA3 from the router?

    WPA2-Personal vs WPA2/WPA3 Personal

    Sorry to necro an old thread, but is not using WPA2/WPA3-Personal still not recommended? Just got a GT-AX6000 and I have mostly have AC and AX devices

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.6 is now available for select models

    Drat, the AX6600 covers most my home except for one main spot downstairs. If only the XD6 came in a single pack or something (and at a reasonable price).

    No Jumbo Frame for GT-AX6000?!?

    Just curious, what's your use case for it? I thought Jumbo Frames, even in their "heyday", offered marginal improvements at best and more often than not would cause more headaches than it was worth (and nowadays is not recommended to be used at all, especially with TSO, LSO, etc.).

    RT-AC86U 2.4Ghz Can't connect to this network

    I’m noticing the same issue after updating my 3100 to .18. Restarting the router fixes it for a little bit, but then the same thing starts appearing in the logs after an hour or so and both wireless and wired connections begin to drop. Had no issues with .17 at all, will like roll back to that.

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.16 (and 384.13_6) are now available

    Thank you Merlin!! Question for anyone who may know - is it still a good idea to have the 2.4 and 5 networks SSIDs/names be different? Or is that an old-school thing that’s not needed anymore? My router: AC-3100

    No More Social Media

    Minor error, but the second sentence: "We was never active on any of these networks"

    2.4 Network Slow/Unresponsive

    Just wanted to report back that since changing my settings to this, I've have had zero issues. Thank you again! FYI for anyone else, Apple actually has a decent guide on this too: https://support.apple.com/bg-bg/HT202068

    Good to know, thank you!

    2.4 Network Slow/Unresponsive

    Sigh - that's what I figured. It's confusing, only because I feel like I read a lot "leave settings at default for best results" on this forum, but I notice things like beam-forming and MIMO enabled by default on the 2.4 band, 20/40 set to auto, etc. In any case, I went ahead and changed...
