If you have an RT6600AX, could you please carry out my test?

It seems every time I mess around with alternative firmware for my AX86U, I end up with weird problems and always move back to the official firmware. I forgot to mention this originally, but another category that failed basic testing was when I enabled blocking of gambling sites. Vegasworld ...

Thinking about buying a Synology RT6600AX but was wondering something. On my ASUS AX86U (with web/content filtering enabled and the adult category blocked) ..... and when using 3rd party programs.... I'm shocked/surprised that the 'adult' category doesn't block some sites that are obviously...

All this was done by plugging the server at my house directly into the AT&T fiber ONT (bypassing my router) and the backup server at my brother's house was plugged directly intro his Asus GT6 router. The main server and backup server have dual NICs so we tried both.....new cables....nothing...

Thanks, I'll work on getting that set up soon.

Any iperf experts in the audience? I was using iperf and iperf3 to my backup server and here's what I was getting: (see attached file)

Nope, when the backup server was on my LAN, I'd max out the 1 gig switch and network cards. I'm using rsync (ssh) to back up to the remote server.

Traceroute doesn't show anything horrible, highest hop is 30ms.

I copied my keys over and followed your advice and disabled password login and changed the key to 2048 RSA. Thanks for the info!

Good to hear, thanks for the reply!

Server A is Debian 12 and is located at my house directly plugged into an ASUS AX86U router. Server B is Debian 12 and is located at my brother's directly plugged into an ASUS GT6 router. I have AT&T 1 gig symmetrical and he has Comcast 1.2 down/35 up. I recently moved my backup server to my...

How safe and secure is it to lock a port forward rule to a source IP? I recently moved my backup server to my brother's house and on his Asus router, I opened SSH but locked the source IP to my (static) IP address. Is this fairly safe or should I add a little more security by changing the SSH...

Authentication mode for both is HTTP. When I access the 1900P, it stays on http. I get the warning about the connection not being secure but accessing it via IP is AOK. Another plot twist..... on my main PC, I only ever used Brave and Firefox to access 192.168.1.1 (whether it was my ASUS router...

I have a 2nd ASUS router (1900P) that's in Access Point mode and I can use the same browser that fails when going to 192.168.1.1 to access the 1900P on 192.168.1.240 and that loads fine.

All those options failed. Accessing it via http://router.asus.com/Main_Login.asp works perfectly.
