I have take a look at the .CFG file and I can see that it's really a nvram dump. So yes, restoring a config doesn't restore only the things we change on the router from the default settings, but instead it restore every single thing there is you can and cannot change in the UI... Well I surely...

I reboot the rooter on a weekly basis not because I was having issues regularly, but to avoid having issues ;-) This router replaced a RT AC68U that I needed to reboot on a weekly basis because of WAN load balancing (no matter what I had to reboot at some point on this router to regain Internet...

Hi, I'm having a weird issue for many months and I have failed to find a resolution so maybe the community here can help me with new ideas. The issue is as the title : When I wake up my PC, the router crash and restart (there is a crash log though I can't see anything useful for me in it)...

Unfortunately at that time it was the dual Wan load balancing that was not working correctly as it was balancing during the same "session" (for me a session is during a period of time two hosts that are exchanging : This is what I was used to setup on my load balancers for web sites especially...

The last time I used a guest network (4 years ago) this was already the case. The guest network isolates its client from your local network so they cannot reach your DHCP server. Though I agree that in AP mode there is an issue : the AP must allow clients to use the gateway (on the local...

If you don't want to use a different ssid, you can block a device from accessing an AP. I don't use AiMesh, but I do have two Asus router and two outdoor APs. I fine tuned AP allocation by blocking MAC IDs on each AP. This way devices can still roam from AP to AP except for those I explicitly...

For me it was working very bad with a RT-AC68U, it was not working so badly with the GT-AX11000. It does work best in load balance mode, in fail over mode it does things that is dumb (when the router has fail over the WAN 2, every X minutes it check if main WAN is restored, but for doing this...

You can use load balance mode, then write rules to force subnets to use Wan 1 or Wan 2. It's a pain to write the rules, but as you want to force subnets it will be easier to write (of course if one Wan is down, all clients will use the remaining one)

If your NAS doesn't match rule1 and rule2 it will then use both wan. So you have to rewrite rule2 so that it is not the whole ip range (either you use a small range and make sure the NAS is outside, either you create multiple rules to cover the whole range except the NAS) It's a pain because of...

When I was using Dual WAN ( 50 Mbps + 8 Mbps) I used Load Balance with rules so that it never load balance (load balance was at the time unacceptable as it dropped some connections), this way you can use both connections at the same time. Later I used Fallback but it never worked correctly and...

I forgot to tell you the EAP110 is a Wifi N (300 Mpbs) though the Ethernet port on the AP is only 100 Mpbs (well it's not that silly since you can never reach 300 Mbps, but still you are caped to 100 Mpbs by the Ethernet port). What's nice with this AP is that the POE adapter is included (not...

I'm using a TP Link EAP110, it does the job well for my intended use (ring doorbell and EZVIZ cameras). I use it as an access point with my AX1000 (and previously with a RT68) There is nothing fancy about them, you set them up as an AP and you have to choose the SSID and channel carefully to...

Exactly. Who knows... I have seen my ant router rebooting every 60 sec... Performed factory reset and everything is fine now. My previous rt ac68u had some sporadic reboot, like when uplugging a usb 4g modem, sometime for no reason, and one day i manually rebooted it and it was stuck in a boot...

It's the date when the rooter is starting.. So it means your rooter rebooted (crashed).

It's a bug (it was not doing this with my previous RT AC68U), and to be perfectly accurate it's not for the secondary WAN, but it's for any WAN that is not the main WAN port. For instance my primary WAN was a USB 4G modem and my secondary was a DSL Modem on the WAN Ethernet port. Bandwith...
