    LAN Switch enable bonding and disable STP kills LAN

    Well, is rather difficult to see what's going on as everything I have is connected to the Eth switch and the RT-AX86U ... I suppose I could enable loopback protection or STP on the HP1810-8G (currently disabled), as it will log the problem and disable the port(s) to keep at least the Eth part of...

    LAN Switch enable bonding and disable STP kills LAN

    Does this suggest that there's a boot problem on the RT-AX86U? That is, the Eth ports are being enabled before the bridge is created and hence creating a network loop on the Eth fabric?

    LAN Switch enable bonding and disable STP kills LAN

    The trunk connected to the RT-AX86U is TRK2 (WiFi) and seems to be working, given there are packets seen on both interfaces/ports from the Eth switch GUI: Trunk Name Type Admin Status Link Status Static Mode Trunk Members Active Ports TRK1 Server Dynamic Enable Up Disable 7,8 7,8 TRK2 WiFi...

    I am using an HP1810-8G Eth switch ... it only supports LACP (802.3ad). I have set the trunk on the switch to 'LACP Active'.

    LAN Switch enable bonding and disable STP kills LAN

    I have enabled LAN->Switch Control ->LAN bonding on my RT-AX86U, and connected both cables to an my LANs Eth switch which has enabled Active LACP on those ports. This seems to work okay (checked logs of switch and router). But, if I disable STP (LAN->Switch Control ->Spanning-Tree Protocol) I...

    Enabling 'Network Monitoring' kills LAN DNS on WAN failure

    That fixes it ... shame one needs to disable this feature though, as in theory one can just redirect WAN IP addresses to this page; I'd argue the 'Enable WAN down browser redirect notice' feature is broken as is unusable basically.

    Enabling 'Network Monitoring' kills LAN DNS on WAN failure

    On my RT-AX86U with Merlin v386.7, if I enable the networking monitoring feature and set it to ping google.co.uk, and then disconnect my Broadband, the red LED lights up on the router .... but I discover that I cannot access any of my LAN equipment using their DNS names (IP address works fine)...

    Lost Wireless configuration after upgrade to 376.49_5

    My AP-mode enabled RTN66u was upgraded, but I now find that the wireless configuration is broken. Frequency only shows 5GHz; I am unable to choose 2.4GHz and therefore cannot see/change those settings. Both 5GHz and 2.4GHz are working though. Top of webpage is showing this: "SSID:Hill Family...
