    Does Asus No Longer Support Speed Test Servers in Perth WA?

    Boy! Talk about a black art. Anyhow, the good news is that today it is back to normal and my speed test recognizes that I am back in Perth and not wandering the outback of this wide brown land. Aside from my correspondence to Asus, Ookla and my Internet Provider, I did two other things yesterday...

    Does Asus No Longer Support Speed Test Servers in Perth WA?

    That would have been very disconcerting. I'm assuming that the external IP number is allocated by your internet provider? I'm also assuming that it is the provider's job to populate the database with the correct geographic location information. I'm starting to think that my provider has been...

    Does Asus No Longer Support Speed Test Servers in Perth WA?

    Thanks. I may give that a go. Bottom line is though that nobody really can explain why my IP location is so far from my physical location. My ISP, Asus and Ookla are all silent. Too hard.

    Does Asus No Longer Support Speed Test Servers in Perth WA?

    I think you are onto something. If I look up my IP address most databases say it is in Perth. However, the Cloudflare test shows me in the middle of woop-woop (i.e. a long way from here). I'm confused.

    Does Asus No Longer Support Speed Test Servers in Perth WA?

    Thanks for that. I tried it and it is very comprehensive. However, my original issue remains in that my router and phone app both show me as being located in Adelaide and not Perth.

    Does Asus No Longer Support Speed Test Servers in Perth WA?

    Thanks RMerlin. I have asked the question of Ookla as both my ISP and Asus cannot work out what is causing it.

    Does Asus No Longer Support Speed Test Servers in Perth WA?

    For the past two days I've noted that when checking the internet speed, either via the Asus app on my phone or on via router login on my PC. it now only shows servers in Adelaide. For years Perth servers have been shown. As the distance from Perth to Adelaide is nearly 2,700km ping results are...

    Manually set 2.4Ghz wifi channel on Asus RT-AC68U in mesh node

    I switched to channel 11 and both router and node are in harmony. For some reason it couldn't cope with channel 13. Weird!

    Manually set 2.4Ghz wifi channel on Asus RT-AC68U in mesh node

    Thanks Colin. I'll give it a go and see what happens. I chose channel 13 as I read that it was less congested than others? Both routers were bought here in Australia.

    Manually set 2.4Ghz wifi channel on Asus RT-AC68U in mesh node

    I have two Asus AC68U routers with one running as an AIMesh node. On the main router I have set the 2.4Ghz control channel to 13 thinking that the node would also automatically adopt this channel but it does not. My reason for fixing the channel is that I have Sony surround speakers in the same...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    Since installing this update my System Log no longer functions.

    Dissapearing Log Information

    Over the past week the System Log (General) information for my RT-AC68U is totally blank. There are generally a few entries (e.g. Devices no longer in WiFi range etc) But now it is totally blank. The router seems to be functioning fine but wondered if anybody else was experiencing ths...

    Asus RT-AC68U External HDD Upgrade / Disk Clone

    I have a WD 3TB HDD connected to the USB 3.0 port of my Asus RT-AC68U Router. It all works fine and I am able to watch movies and listen to music around my house via the WiFi network. However, as my collection grows and the drive is getting used for the storage of other data as well I want to...

    Asus AC68U Access Issue

    Thanks azbruno, I'll give it a go. I assume just turning the unit off and on (30 seconds later) via the power button does not have the same effect?

    Asus AC68U Access Issue

    Is anybody having any issues logging into their AC68U lately? I'm not sure if it is related to the latest Asus firmware update (Current Version : 3.0.0.4.386_41995-g272eb13) or not but for the past few days I have had to re-boot the router to gain access. It is then fine for most of the day...
