    Lightway add-on?

    I read last night that Lightway from ExpressVPN has now been made open source and it appears the code is up on Github. Is there any possibility of this being done as an add-on for Merlin or is this something that would have to be baked into the firmware?

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.3 beta is now available

    YazFi is working fine for me, I've got two guest networks configured and can confirm both are working as intended.

    Thanks so much for taking the time to clarify all this for me.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.3 beta is now available

    Does it explicitly have to be VPN5 or simply the last *active* VPN client, which in my case would be VPN4 as I never run VPN5? I want anything not covered by a WAN or VPN1-VPN3 rule to go out by default on VPN4.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.3 beta is now available

    Yeah, looks like that's it. I set up both a WAN and VPN1 entry for my phone and, low and behold, I could load website on it by using the IP address of them instead of the URL. A follow-up question would be how I would be able to set up the catch-all I had in place before the firmware upgrade as...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.3 beta is now available

    Upgraded my RT-AX88U last night to the beta. For the most part everything seems to work fine but I noticed something with VPN Director and I'm not sure if it's intended behavior or not. I have 4 VPN clients configured but I only run 2 simultaneously; either VPN1 or VPN3 is running, while at the...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 is now available

    Does anyone know of a way to see the CPU temps of AiMesh nodes? That did it, just have to divide the answer by 1000 to get something that makes sense to humans. Thanks!

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 is now available

    I've had 4 router crashes in the last 48 hours, prior to that I can't remember the last time the router crashed. This is the least stable version of Merlin I've ever used on mine and I'm probably gong to have to revert.

    AiMesh AC3100 and AC86U which one should be node and master?

    I have this same setup, both an AC86U and an AC3100. You're going to want the AC86U as the main router. In case you ever decide you want to start doing anything with VPNS (and it appears you are) the AC86U has hardware-based AES encryption/decryption which makes it significantly faster than the...

    Can you add non-WiFi clients to the Guest Network?

    Ok, so the device worked but... Once I connected the Hue hub to the Ethernet port on the extender/bridge it was connecting to the guest network through that device but the Amazon Echo couldn't talk to it directly to discover the lights connected to the Hue Hub even thought it was also connecting...

    Need a new Asus router- need a suggestion

    I'll second the RT-AC86U suggestion. I got one specifically because it supports hardware VPN acceleration and it massively sped up my VPN connections over my old router. As well, I find it has really great coverage in my house. They can also routinely be found on sale.

    Can you add non-WiFi clients to the Guest Network?

    Yep, and $19.00 later I have just such a thing coming from Amazon.

    Can you add non-WiFi clients to the Guest Network?

    Bummer. It looks like the only way to do this is to get a cheap device to act as a wireless client to connect to the Guest Network that I can plug wired devices into. Thanks for the clarification!

    Can you add non-WiFi clients to the Guest Network?

    I currently have an AC86U as my main router and an AC3100 operating as an AIMesh node with ethernet backhaul. The guest network is currently running and I use it to isolate my IoT devices. The one device I cannot add to the guest network via WiFi is the Hue hub as it requires an Ethernet...
