    Disable VLAN (to enable same subnet for WIFi and Eth)

    I'm trying to disable VLANs so that I can have my Eth and WiFi networks share the same subnet. Currently they can't see each other. I've looked everywhere but cannot find the VLAN settings, there's no tab in the LAN page. Can anybody help? My routers are AX92u's.

    GT-AX6000 bufferbloat results here

    My bufferbloat rating is C. Unloaded is 12ms (11ms is the lowest ping I can ever get due to my ISP) Downloading 40ms Uploading 100ms However.... If I ping on another machine whilst one is downloading, it's still only 11ms. The same is true if I also have another machine tormenting as well...

    Does OFDMA Really Work? Part 2

    I have 2 networks. OFDMA + MU-MIMO helped to improve latency in my "work" network. It's not an office, it's a group of Airbnb apartments sharing symmetrical 1Gb WAN. On the ax only channel, there are over 100 active ax STA's, approximately 40 of those are real people streaming and gaming. The...

    Difficulties maintaining 160 MHz channel bandwidth

    If you want 160mhz to work, set the control channel to 100. This works in the UK, it might be different in other countries. One point worth noting is it can take a while (can't remember exact time) for the DFS channel to be cleared and active. Obviously, the wider the channel, the more chance...

    What's the benefit of enabling the 160hz?

    160mhz has an obvious speed advantage. However, I've noticed lower pings under load on 80mhz. 80mhz also seems to offer higher throughput at further distances. I suppose it depends on what your devices are used for. If you are regularly copying huge files, use 160mhz, else drop down to 80mhz...

    Issues with my new ASUS RT-AX92U

    There are other people here with bigger networks who have shared their screens. Regarding topology, 2 nodes are connected off the backs of other nodes. Lower latency is one of the benefits of AX over AC. OFDMA helped in mitigating a lot of the bandwidth issues associated with a shared backhaul...

    Asus RT-AX86U devices disconnecting

    "Downgrade" your 2.4ghz band to the bare minimum. This will reduce compatibility issues and drop outs. Disable all modern features. For example beamforming, mu-mimo. Disable ax on this channel. I use 2.4ghz as a legacy channel for old devices and IOT devices. On this band, reliability is more...

    RT AX92U firmware upgrade drops connections frequently

    So we finally got the update. Also interested to see how people get on with this. As it's been so long, it's probably a good idea to do a clean upgrade?

    Issues with my new ASUS RT-AX92U

    The AX92u is fine for building a mesh system, however there are newer options available now. There was some horrible bugs with the firmware in the early days but these have all been patched. The ongoing issue this router has is related to the guest network. As tech9 has stated, the AX92u was...

    RT-AX86U PRO page now up ...

    I require low latency due to my job (every ms counts). We short listed 2 routers. The AX86u and the AX92u. The AX92u consistently beats the AX86U in latency tests by 2ms - 4ms, both unloaded and under load. It's reasonable to assume the XT8 and XT12 also have lower latency but do your own...

    Asus RT-AX82U hasn't improved my wifi range or speed, what am I doing wrong?

    Have you considered paying someone to set everything up for you? You could post an add on your local Facebook group and offer a set amount of money. It doesnt have to be a lot and there will definitely be some local teenagers up for earning some extra cash. Put an ad like £50 for setting up my...

    Wanting to upgrade….. what’s my best option?!

    I was also referring to the link speed. Nobody knows what his throughput will be. There's too many factors to even guess.

    Bought AX82U and was having Wireless issues, returned for AX86U and same issues

    Ditch cloudflare and just use Google. I had terrible performance with cloudflare despite it beating Google in my benchmarks.
