-70dBm is considered a minimal value for reliable data transport. When the RSSI is below the set value, the AP send a disconnect frame (same happens when you push the "reconnect" button in the client list interface) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Yes I did. The one MacBook we have is still connecting at 5GHz. What was the RSSI of the macbook according to the controller before configuring? (MacBook might have switched during the provisioning that occurred after changing the settings) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I got band steering enabled as well. A far as I can see it works. Even my laptop is on 5GHz. The driver prefers 2.4GHz, I can set it to 5, but I am a Windows Insider, so I go through an upgrade process every 2-4 weeks which resets the driver settings. I'm a bit worried about the extremities of...

@wopper, thnx. I managed the roaming with a combination of power settings and minimal RSSI. Set 2.4GHz to medium power, while 5GHz is set to high. This prevents the tablets and phones trying to roam from 5GHz to 2.4 on the same AP. Then set minimal RSSI to -73dBm. When this works out I'll try...

Got my units last week and installed them this weekend. They work well with the latest beta (4.8.12) firmware. Took some fiddling to get the correct roaming settings, but now it works fine. My only quib is the limitd number of 5ghz channels. 2aps are in each others range, so no ht80... Sent...

Common sense: 0 Compulsiveness: 1 I went ahead and ordered 3 of the pro models to replace two Asus N66's and one Fritzbox. The plan is to mount one on each floor of the house (nice thick concrete slabs between the floors). The expected delivery date from my vendor is still second week of...

To answer the question of the topicstarter; If anything affects your health, it is probably the transmission of radiation. When an access point has no clients, it only emits a beacon signal. This beacon packet is only transmitted every 100ms. On the professional page from the WiFi settings, you...

There is your problem then. Try enlarging your pool and put your static addresses within the pool range and your problems will be solved. (Asus started mimicking Microsoft dhcp behaviour, this is not Merlin specific) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you read a few pages back, you'll see that you have probably hit a fundamental change in dhcp behaviour. Are your static leases in the range defined for the dhcp server? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My Traffic Manager is working normally, also on N66 Any other Traffic manager related settings? I have configured a flash disk for Traffic manager history.

Just upgraded my RT-N66U to 49_4 with the factory-default-->upgrade-->factory-default-->Configure manually workflow. IPv4 and IPv6 working normally and at comparable speeds. Two hitches: 1) Under the new firmware the modem configures another IPv6 IP for itself; the first address (xxx::1) in...

Agree, but a lot of people don't even know what NAT loopback is, so maybe like this (assuming people read the start post): With .48 it might not be possible to access you forwarded ports using the external IP. If you really need it disable HW acceleration. But there is another solution as...

Yes, there is a different solution. Asus publishes the source of the firmware. You can delve into a heap of code and backtrack what is going wrong, but it would take you at least a day, if the problem resides in the open source code. Then there are also closed source drivers which are impossible...
