    Asus Web Management in UI webapp Organizr - iFrame problem?

    I'm using a webserver app which grabs other webpages and displays them in what I believe to be iFrames for centralised management - https://github.com/causefx/Organizr Unfortunately the Asus management web ui is not displayed - I've been searching through the html and JavaScript to see if there...

    Home Mesh Wi-Fi Coming This Summer From eero

    Thanks Thiggins, that's really helpful. Thanks for all your work on the site so insightful. I'm thinking Eero will help my issues in my house. I have 3 stories; wired on ground and first floor but no wire to 3rd. If I use two standard APs on the first two floors they overlap too much and the...

    Home Mesh Wi-Fi Coming This Summer From eero

    That's interesting. Even so, just because they use different channels for the backhaul it doesn't help if you're using the Eero's in access point mode with wired uplink and want to use different channel to be on the safe side. What do you mean by "available airtime" - I'm sending yet another...

    Home Mesh Wi-Fi Coming This Summer From eero

    Thanks for that. The guy who reviewed the Edimax AP's seem to have some excellent results in roaming between two of them but they don't seem to be anything cleverer than kicking clients with a lower RSSI than a set RSSI - I'm not sure they're aware of each other like Eero and therefore adjust...

    Home Mesh Wi-Fi Coming This Summer From eero

    Great review of the eero, felt like the only really, proper in deoth review and test so far and theres enough reviews out there of this product. thiggins can you comment on how you think eero's handoff works compared to Edimax's ac1750 and Cap 1200 ap's "fast roaming"/"smart handover" (I'm not...

    Asus wired only thoughts & twist

    So my query may seem like yet another "which router should I buy" but I have a bit of a twist. I live in a moderately large house with three floors - ground, 1st floor and 3rd. My telephone line comes in on the ground floor under the stairs along with all my other hidden away tech - server...

    Port forwarding Windows Client using a VPN

    I actually found a different workaround - I set up the n66u as VPN server. I now connect to the n66u via vpn from my remote location and get a lan IP which means I can then hit the windows 8 box as a local client. Thanks for your help.

    Port forwarding Windows Client using a VPN

    Sorry - I do really appreciate your help and its definitely worth noting the possible PIA leaks. Use default gateway on the remote network is checked and I have a VPN checker software running which kills any apps using the internet if the VPN drops. I'm happy to give the lowering of the...

    Port forwarding Windows Client using a VPN

    All my internet traffic is going via PIA. I'm not sure why the gateway would matter? As I understand it my Windows 8 machine has two NICs now (albeit the PPTP is virtual) - one connected to the VPN and one connected to the LAN lets say with IP 192.168.1.10. Whilst it doesn't have access to...

    Port forwarding Windows Client using a VPN

    If this is how it is meant to work then so be it. I wonder if I can find a workaround though. In answer to your question the PIA connection seems to be first:

    Port forwarding Windows Client using a VPN

    The PPTP is an external company (PIA) the Windows 8 machine has a constant assigned IP by the n66u. The Windows 8 machine establishes the PPTP connection to PIA via the windows client and then the port forwarding breaks.

    Port forwarding Windows Client using a VPN

    I have done extensive searches on this but I can't find anything but do excuse me if this is covered elsewhere. I'm running Merlin 378.55 on a n66u and have port forwarded some ports to a windows 8 machine on my LAN. This all works fine until I have the windows 8 machine connect to a VPN via...

    Bootp dhcp broadcast flag

    Got it working last night without messing with udhcpc. I decided to upgrade my merlin build (it was old) factory reset the asus, turn off Virgin SHac for 15mins and then reboot everything together hooked up. It would seem that Virgin gave a new lease and the Asus grabbed it fine. I wonder if...

    Bootp dhcp broadcast flag

    I will do that if a little bit more experimenting doesn't help. I really do think this is the issue though, because as the user m01 found in the Virgin forums, when I plug in my mac or laptop to the SHac in modem mode without the router, the mac happily grabs the lease from Virgin so it really...
