A MAC filter is only going to stop it from joining, it will not stop it from trying. From reading up on who uses Tuya wifi chips, they appear to be in many newer Internet of Things / aka smart devices in your home. Commonly they are identified with a (Powered by Tuya) or PBT on them. You...

Running on this code for the week now. See multiple errors and reboots now in logs. Saving copy here.

Purchased the router on day one. Was working great until upgraded to latest firmware 3.0.0.4.106_32460 this morning. DNS no matter what settings I tried, would not resolve through router. I even tried manual DNS to google 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 but still no love to network devices. I turned...

A few more details and picture of it. https://www.techpowerup.com/247143/tp-link-announces-archer-c2700-router-powered-by-intel-components

Granted this forum post is long, but this was answered by Darksarrow just two pages ago.. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rog-rapture-gt-ac5300-owners.38794/page-40#post-355837

On the router there is a tab for AiCloud 2.0. On the first tab there is a link to both Apple and Android apps. These are just the Cloud controls, however there is links to the other ASUS made software also on each listing.

This thread is for the GT-AC5300 which I believe is a total redesign over that of the RT-AC88U and others before the RT-AC5300. The code is so different that RMerlin is not doing support for the GT-AC5300 currently. We found the best way to get ASUS to take notice was to open support tickets...

Asus fixed the "paid app" error that the GT-AC5300 was getting by updating the firmware code.

Sorry to be going off topic of the Norton so much. Just looking at the funky internal antennas and board setup made me think of it. A review over external or internal would most likely have to use something like a Cisco 2700/2800 or even 3800 series AP. They come in both flavors. Not so...

The review as with other products sort of makes me think it is time for Tim H to do a review/overview of why external or not to do external antennas and how many is just too many. Norton should have done a little more in house clean up on this one before releasing it.

Well, ASUS claims the GT-AC5300 is not vulnerable to the KRACK WPA attack. Lots of other routers named too. https://www.asus.com/Static_WebPage/ASUS-Product-Security-Advisory/ Click on the update for 10/31/2017

So I wrote to ASUS about the KRACK issue. Below is the answer you will get back. Pretty understandable. Thank you for contacting ASUS Product Support. My name is Olga O. I understand that you want to know when are we going to release the firmware update for KRACK wpa2 vulnerability. I know...

MarkSW, any word on a new Beta?

Hello DarkSorrow, I have not seen anything from ASUS yet, (UPDATE: TimH found that ASUS had been contacted on Aug 28th by CERT and never responded...http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/CHEU-AQNMXY) however the hack affects both the client and the AP. Both have to be patched with some sort of fix...

Hey cchorrell, Glad to see you are familiar with the products mentioned. The Wiki for this router is at https://wikidevi.com/wiki/ASUS_GT-AC5300 Has some good links to the chipsets and their specs. Agree, it 'should' be better hardware to handle that office than the older series...
