Well, I finally put the old mostly wired LAN to rest last weekend and moved over to the new more wireless one (NAS is still wired to the router through a switch for a bit of home-NOC wired bits). NICs are Asus PCE-AC86, Router is Asus RT-AC53000 with Merlin and if I log in to it I set it to use...

I haven't tested this for long connection times yet. Still on my old setup for day-to-day use, but if I do get things up and experience any such problems, would you mind referring me to the forum where I can get the firmware or is that sort of thing frowned upon in this forum?

;-) Does it look like it's worth tracking beta software for it?

With my limited knowledge I assumed that the router-modem connection would become something used just for PPPoE, but since I gave the modem an IP of 192.168.3.2 and can access it, I realised that must not be the case. So I was a little worried that the modem is still doing all its own things on...

Hello Guys, Pheew, well, that was a long day. Okay, I'm definitely going to have to learn a lot more before I know as much as the two of you. For now I can report that yes, the setup works the same for whichever LAN port on the modem I connect to the WAN port on the router. Also, thank you...

Hello A.D., Some of this reply is also on your reply in http://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-dsl-n17u-tp-link-td-vg5612-as-vdsl-modem-bridge.32126 The new network still needs to take over from my current one. Currently I'm using an Asus AC1900 router (with tomato) and an Asus DSL-N55U modem...

Hello A.D., Shell we continue this in the other thread (or do you see a distinction to keep both)? http://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-dsl-n17u-as-xdsl-modem-bridge-mode.32174 Cheers, Riaan

Hello A.D., I answered in the linked thread (explaining what I did to get things to work), but in hindsight I should have probably answered in this one. It being in a more appropriate forum. Just wanted to follow up. I now have my PCs, using Asus PCE-AC68 Wireless NICs connecting to the Asus...

Hello A.D., Glad to see someone reads up before buying - I did not ;-) I'm sitting with an RT-AC5300 that I installed Merlin on here and just unboxed the DSL-N17U which I hope to use as a modem. I couldn't find anything decent using Google but your post keeps coming up. so I updated the...
