I had a reformat of a PC and also got a new ISP in, everythings working except for diversion, my routers IP is set to 192.168.11.1 and the IP starting pool address is 192.168.11.3, i use ookla https://www.speedtest.net/ as a benchmark for ads, if i get none there i am happy, before the PC was...

The router upstairs that is connected to the printer also run asus merlin and i have openVPN running on it which allows me to remote into the LAN from anywhere, it works well, the router downstairs is also an asus router but cant run merlin, could i still cobble some form of VPN between the two...

Both routers are physically isolated, so am i right to think that when you say that a dual WAN is physical as opposed to virtual then i would need to trail an ethernet cable from one router to the other ?, this is not viable, also i literally just want to be able to print downstairs. I am also...

Hmm, how would i go about port forwarding to the router downstairs, it is on a different subnet than the one upstairs that is linked to the printer downstairs, would that work like i would be able to log in to the downstairs router and because the upstairs one os port forwarded it would share...

It has to do with the fact the printer is picked up by the router, the router gives it its IP address no ?, when i add a printer it is adding it via wifi, i assume from the router, when sat next to printer it will say it is offline, if i then go upstairs next to the router the printer will spit...

This house i live in i gave up trying to get connection around the house with one router and isp, tried power lines, wireless bridging, i gave up in the end because the problem was always going to be double NAT. I got a new fibre connection in upstairs for myself and still have the other isp...

Ok. I have changed the downstairs router to 192.168.1.xx and the printer is working from. The router upstairs currently

its an epson ET2500, i dont think it does natively, even if i turn on WPS it does find the printer but keeps failing to install saying that there is no network profile for it

ill keep my fingers crossed that what i have already will work, otherwise ill have to ask lots of questions and upset people.

Yes we did and it was a struggle then. Think i missed making executable, so i just logged into my router and typed 'arp' and i can see the PERM in the line, i then directly typed ' chmod a+rx /jffs/scripts/* ' so i will test after a reboot, i should then see PERM on that line if i did it right ...

I have TalkTalk (TT) coming in downstairs using a DSL-AC88U running stock firmware as it doesn't take merlin (someone else pays for this isp). I have recently had community fibre broadband installed upstairs for my own personal use and it is directly attached to my ASUS RT AC86U and this is...

i don't intend to turn the router off, but it will undoubtedly get turned off and on for some reason or rebooted, can i make it survive a reboot ?

So not working for someone with my limited knowledge ?

Is the list issue why it's not working ?.. is diversion not working or being attended to anymore and I have to do something else. Shame it worked perfectly before

I got it to WOL, the BIOS had a couple of settings, i noticed that the LED was not lit on the ethernet when power off, there was a setting that said 'C state' and another setting that mention the PSU being in a certain state, i changed both and it booted, however, i did not a second time untill...
