So far, the best parental controls that I have seen is on a Dlink DIR655. I love the parental controls, schedules etc. YOu can even set specific game site restriction so that the games are blocked off. However, performance is somewhat slow and problem is that whenever it syncs time, there is a...

Thanks Nerre... tried using Google DNS... does not seem to be that much better.. Still has breaks in internet connection... Sigh.. Otherwise it's a really speedy router... but this make surfing unbearable...

Downgraded to .220 but problems still persists.. when it's connected, it's really fast but every few minutes, it will hang and have the Unable to Resolve DNS server.. which will last about 10-15 sec, either it reconnects or we have to restart the browser for it to connect again... It's really...

Are you facing the same problems with firware .2XXX ? Should i go downgrade to the .178 firmware??

Hi all Am using Merlin's latest firmware for my RT-N66U but have been getting this since I first bought this router about 1 month ago. The connection is very fast but every couple of minutes while surfing, the browser would seem to hang and not get into the webpage with a message "Error 105...

Anyone knows what the default unstated fragmentation threshold is for the RT-N66U? Can't seem to find the information anywhere... Thanks

Hi I've noticed that the Asus RT-N66 has the RTS threshold setting under the wireless professional tab (default 2347) but there does not seem to be a setting for the Fragmentation Threshold. Was reading that if one tweaks the RTS Threshold, we must also tweak the Fragmentation threshold to be...

I will monitor it for a few days but the problem seems to be the same as this thread: http://forums.smallnetbuilder.com/showthread.php?t=8433 Cheers!

Thanks merlin I reflashed it with 19b and set it to DTIM 2 and beacon 50, disabled wireless multicast and it seems to be much better... and more stable too. But once or twice it had a transient disconnection which the log showed up as "WAN Connection: ISP's DHCP did not function properly." but...

Hi Merlin THanks for your advice.. have switched DNS to a local ISP's. However, I seem to be having some problems lately. Am using your 246.20 firmware. On 2 of my laptops, the 2.4 and 5G internet connection seems to go to 'sleep' once in a while... When it is connected, the loading of pages...

Asuswrt-Merlin RT N66U 3.0.0.4.246.20 .. does the firmware may a difference?

Hi Was wondering if anyone could advise which are the best settings for the advance wireless setup or are the defaulted values best? Have read that to improve wireless we can set beacon interval at 50, RTS threshold at 3406, Preamble short instead of long etc. Also, would like advice on...

DNS servers I ran DNSBench and found that a local DNS service has faster response time than google's... Should I change the DNS servers to this local ISP servers? Would it help increase the speed of internet surfing? Thanks

Hi all.. Thanks.. was running Merlin's latest firmware and after some tinkering, the router now works blazingly FAST! Settings I used: Wireless: 2.4G, off b/g protection, Channel 1 (no others around with it), 20/40Mhz, 5G, Channel 36, 40Mhz Under professional: tx bursting, wireless...

Hi, Just got the RT-N66 and set it up with default settings with WPA2. However, the internet connection via wireless on both 2.4G and 4G exhibits bouts of lagginess. Sometimes, when we click on a site, it takes quite long for it to load and the browser may even go to an offline page. Then...
