    Unable to access USB 3.0 connected HDD with AX88U on PC

    All the partitions on the drive are NTFS, I cannot reformat it as it is a media server (lots of media content on drive).

    AX88U behind ISP router- Internet drops/VPN/ISP DHCP does not function

    5 has more speed than 2.4 yeah that makes sense to me. Does keeping the ASUS on the ISP routers DMZ make any difference? Doing that puts my ISP IP on the ASUS. What are the pros/cons? There is port forwarding mentioned which I do not know how it works.

    Where can I find the guide for it? I would like to use the AiCloud for backup. And current DDNS will not allow me to access the router remotely? Also now that I am on doubleNAT how do I port forward the PS, ports for torrent/tor?
