Awesome, thank you! I think the only remaining question I have is around 2 ATT uverse IPTV boxes. They need IGMP Proxying to work and are working fine at the moment but are also plugged into the managed switch. My wireless router does support IGMP proxying/snooping so I imagine I should be ok...

Understandable, I am hoping it will apply/work the same here. With this set up, will I run into any problems plugging an unmanaged switch into the wireless router to give me some additional ports?

Thanks for the explanation. To make sure I understand - on the switch I would only have the uplink to ATT gateway, link to wireless router, and mirror/link to monitoring device?

Which does make sense. Original post updated with new wording.

Good morning! I am trying to monitor all of my home network traffic (wired and wireless) but am having some difficulties with connectivity. I will be using the switch to mirror ports once I get all the connectivity issues sorted out. I have AT&T U-Verse with the following hardware and all...

I can't tell for sure that the connector on the router itself is turning, but I can't imagine it wouldn't be since the antenna won't screw off. It does look like it would be hard for that SMA connector to break off. I am afraid to keep messing with it and trying to unscrew the antenna in fear of...

Mhmm alright. Is there anyway to test that particular antenna to see if its working compared to the other 2?

Since it is still under warranty from Asus, should I contact them for a repair?

Ah gotcha, well thanks for all the help! I appreciate it.

I just recently moved into a new place, and when packing up the router I decided to unscrew the 3 antennas to prevent any from breaking. 2 came off just fine, but I am unable to get the third off. When I try to unscrew it, the part the antenna screws onto continuously turns with the antenna. I...

I assigned a static IP to the Asus and set the DNS servers but I forgot to change the Default gateway to that of the Actiontec :( This would make sense why the Asus would always complain it couldn't sync the time. I connected to the guest network and was still able to access the Actiontec...

Thanks for the assistance! Duh, dont know why I didn't think to change the router over to AP mode. After I switched it to that, the guest network worked perfectly. And even though it says "The Guest Network provides Internet connection for guests but restricts access to your local network" , it...

I have Verizion FIOS and am using my Asus RT-N66U as a switch. It is a LAN-to-LAN connection between my Fios Router and my Asus RT-N66U. The WAN connection and firewall is not used in user router and the LAN DHCP server is disabled. More info on the setup can be found HERE. I am trying to...

So I went to use my Chromecast and all of the sudden it says it cant connect to the internet. It is successfully connected to my 2.4ghz wireless network. It was working fine up until a few days ago. I didn't change any settings in my router. After I started having problems, I did a factory...

Thanks for the responses everyone. Also made sure any wifi power management is disabled on my phone. Yes, when I am connected, I am getting a strong signal. What happens is I will get a status that I was disconnected from wifi, then a few moments later, it will say I am connected again to the...
