    What add ons to install

    Full disclosure. I don't understand this. I will be trying to do this - > https://support.aa.net.uk/Router_-_EchoLife_HG612 and when I used the WAN port to connect to slcheck the stats, I think the router will be double NAT'd. Let's see. All this is down to me Bothering to follow the steps in...

    OK, I think I'll be fine. Will skip the backupmon at my own risk and tbh the routers working fine with basic Merlin setup... Will save that config down, play around with the other stuff in the coming days and see what happens! Also switched on aiprotect and it's been steady at zero warnings...

    Interesting. Thanks for that. I have a blink thingy that needs a usb and again brought a decent samsung or branded usb drive that's been connected for around 5 months with no issues. I'm hoping that the usb drive I've got for the Asus will last, again not SSD but not cheap either. Question. The...

    What add ons to install

    Based on what's been written here so far, there seems to be either fear of USB drive failures or actual corruption of USB drives, given the need of backupmon and using a SSD drive. How common is a USB (non SSD type) failure?

    Exactly that Viktor. When I decided on a Asus router, I knew that I would rather get used to the Merlin software instead of the Asus one. I also researched what add ons to install but then started reading and researching and then thought I don't need all the extra features. I will try out...

    That's true. Always have to think about the wife factor. Maybe I'll just run Merlin with no whistles

    Hi all Recently obtained a GT-AXE11000 and installed merlin. Household is just me and the wife and your standard devices, connected tvs, cameras, ps4, laptops, phones, work laptops etc. I am the kinda guy that used to love tinkering but now, can't not be bothered with it anymore. Best example...

    Modem + Wi-Fi Router Placement

    All makes sense. I'll put the modem and the Hive box together and then further in the garage, the AP. Let's hope I don't bum into any spiders. Thanks all

    Modem + Wi-Fi Router Placement

    Hi OE, Thanks for the response. The HG612 is a DSL modem only and the other is the AP. In order to save space I just wanted to really place the HG612 modem in the middle of the GT-AXE11000 between the attennas and then ontop of that the Hive device so all things are together with minimal cable...

    Modem + Wi-Fi Router Placement

    Hi all, Recently obtained an Asus GT-AXE11000 + Huawei HG612 to replace my BT Homehub 6A + Fibre 2 package (72down/20up). Using the resources here things are looking good to switch over in the coming few days, settings all ready to go, Merlin installed and stuff. The question I have is, can...
