Thanks for your answer. Sorry I must be missing a critical piece of information because I don't understand what you mean. The MSI motherboard and the Intel Wifi module are already out (and the specs are known) and the wifi 7 standard has been finalised as far as I know. So what "plans" are...

Hi all, I'm building a PC and I'm looking at the MSI MAG Z890 Tomahawk Motherboard for my PC. I used my last PC for 10 years and I expect the same for this one and I would like to make sure it will fully support Wifi 7 as I will probably upgrade to a Wifi 7 router down the road. I'm not super...

Recently purchased an Asus RT-AX 55 and I realised that a lot of the features advertised require you to agree to have your data collected by Trend Micro. I'm usually not enthusiastic about having my browsing history shared with any third party. When you don't agree to the above (which is what...

I see, good to know. I learned a few things today. Thanks for your help

Thank you for that, this is I never heard of so thanks for bringing this to my attention. That's why they are charging an extra $10/month for a fixed IP I don't need a fixed IP, I'm good with a dynamic IP but it needs to be a public IP. That's something they left out in their service...

Hi everyone, I just set up some port forwarding rules in my router and then went to https://canyouseeme.org/ to check whether my port was correctly open and that's when I noticed that the public IP address displayed by canyouseeme was different than my WAN IP address that I can see when I log...

Sweet, switched to HTTP and it worked at my first attempt via WEBGUI. In HTTP mode the 3 min progression bar appeared on my screen (which didn't in HTTPS). It appears HTTPS was the reason why it wouldn't update. I think before suggesting to people to try on another computer, browser...

Quick update, I tried in rescue mode, WAN cable disconnected and I set computer IP address to 192.168.50.7 and I got the same invalid IP address. I tried 192.168.50.1 and again invalid IP address. This was using another PC. I figured I would try the Manual WEBGUI method again with another PC...

Hi @bennor, thanks, I appreciate you taking the time to answer and write a detailed answer. Ok understood for the WAN port. Yesterday I actually wondered if I also should disconnect the ethernet cable from the WAN port. I had removed all the other ethernet cables from LAN ports, but I wasn't...

- Yes router in Wireless Router mode / AiMesh Router mode (Default) - Ok great, I did not unplug from modem, will try that. - How's mine different? I mentioned in OP that Asus recommends using 192.168.1.10. See here https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1000814/ I also mentioned that on my 2nd...

Thanks for your reply @John Fitzgerald Things I have tried that I didn't mention in OP - Full reset followed by basic setup of the router and immediately tried to upgrade. - No USB port on this device - Disconnected all the ethernet cables besides the one wired to the PC used to update I...

Hi everyone, I've been trying to update my firmware without success since yesterday, I really don't understand how every single method doesn't work. My router is currently running the factory fw version 3.0.0.4.386_45375 I recently noticed on the Asus' support page that my router had received...
