    Another DNS Director clarification

    Hello everyone! I understand there is a lot of DNS Director posts/threads and while most of them have been useful, I wanted to confirm a few things based on my desired configuration. If I follow the following guide () can I add clients in the Client List to bypass the Pi-Hole? (NOTE: I'm using...

    Sell my eero Pro 6Es for Asus?

    I caved and I'm back to the AiMesh/Merlin fold! I like my setup so far: AX86U Pro - Main node ZenWiFi Pro AXE11000 (x2) - wired backhaul While the VLAN beta didn't work quite how I liked, the fact that I can setup multiple Guest Networks, Wireguard Server, and PIA VPN to a segment of my network...

    Sell my eero Pro 6Es for Asus?

    Appreciate the feedback. L&LD, the eero is working fine (if it wasn't I would've returned them ASAP)! It has more to do with flexibility/customizations. Mind you, I knew moving from the Asus AiMesh setup to the eero would be restrictive in comparison. I was fine with that for a while, but...

    Sell my eero Pro 6Es for Asus?

    Hello everyone. I had an AiMesh setup (mix of ax88u and ax86u) and then switched to eero Pro 6E. The eero's have been nice, however, I am missing the customizability I had and am considering selling my eero Pro's and go back to Asus routers or a combination of Asus/pfsense. To be clear, nothing...

    Xbox Live issues after installing RT-AX88U_386.1_beta5

    Had to adjust port forwarding a bit but I think I'm stable now. Did not seem to be firmware specific.

    Xbox Live issues after installing RT-AX88U_386.1_beta5

    I installed RT-AX88U_386.1_beta5 a day or so after it was made available and everything was fine except Xbox Live. Prior to the update I had version RT-AX88U_386.1_beta3 installed on my main router and had all appropriate port forwarding configurations and playing to my heart's content (and...

    Adding a node, low-end or mid-range?

    The 2.5 Gigabit port is not a use case I’ve considered or have a major need for currently. Not sure what you mean by too much WiFi is not a good thing, but I appreciate the advice/suggestion.

    Adding a node, low-end or mid-range?

    Hello everyone. I recently setup an AX88U as my main node with an AX3000 (AX58U) as a second node. (Both are running latest betas for Merlin.) I really like this AiMesh setup and, for the most part, have great coverage in my home. However, I am considering adding another node and not sure what...
