    XT8 Can't turn off "Dedicated Wireless Backhaul" in app

    @sjf99 Were you able to get everything working the way you want? I struggled with this for awhile a few months ago and I gave up. Revisiting it now and would like all three bands to be used for clients as well. The bonus is if smart connect would run on all three as well and not just the first two.

    General Question regarding DMZ and QoS

    So I have a basic question that I was unable to answer via my Google sleuthing. How do the DMZ and QoS work together when both are enabled on the router? I have a device in my DMZ that I also want to have a fairly high priority in the QoS hierarchy. I have a feeling that DMZ devices are either...

    Script to Clear Ports Forwarded By UPnP

    One or more of those seemed to do it. However, there was no "PUPNP" chain in the nat table. Do I actually need all three commands? admin@RT-AC5300:/tmp/home/root# admin@RT-AC5300:/tmp/home/root# iptables -t nat -F VUPNP admin@RT-AC5300:/tmp/home/root# iptables -t nat -F PUPNP iptables: No...

    Script to Clear Ports Forwarded By UPnP

    I'm looking for a command/script that will essentially clear any ports forwarded by UPnP (not necessarily all ports if possible) as I find many ports are not auto-closing. My current solutions are rebooting the router or disabling and then enabling UPnP via the GUI, both of which are not ideal...

    Merlin NAT Loopback Problem

    Really just interested in your hardware version, not your rambling. Corey had a point about hardware differences. It really could matter and could have an impact. And FYI, I'm a network technician for a Fortune 100 company. So this is sorta what I do... I'm not really a new user, just...

    Merlin NAT Loopback Problem

    Curious. Hardware poll. My AC68U is hardware version A1 and does experience the NAT bug on the Merlin setting.

    Merlin NAT Loopback Problem

    I usually do a full reset and reconfigured from scratch. This time was no different. AC68U. Using DDNS, I forward a different port to 80 on my IP cameras. That way, I can access any camera using the same web address regardless of being on the local network or not. The second I switched back to...

    Merlin NAT Loopback Problem

    I had to switch back to Asus NAT Loopback. Was having internal forwarding issues with my IP cameras, and the second I switch back to Asus, the problem stopped.

    How to verify QoS traffic app categories.

    Yes, this is ultimately the only solution I've seen as well. Merlin says since analytics to determine app category are closed source, there really is no viability into that process, and you just have to trust that ASUS has it configured correctly. I ran a few tests, and sadly, ASUS was not...

    [RT-AC87U] Adaptive-QoS doesn't do jack?

    Well if anyone is curious, it looks like Call of Duty Black Ops 3 traffic is being put into the "General" category, which I assume is linked to the "Other" app priority. I played some online multiplayer and watched the app classifications in the analyzer, and there were only two apps running...

    [RT-AC87U] Adaptive-QoS doesn't do jack?

    Device priorities are evaluated before app category priority right?

    [RT-AC87U] Adaptive-QoS doesn't do jack?

    So there is no real way to make sure that VUDU or Netflix traffic is actually being dropped into the "Video and Audio Streaming" category? I can see the "VUDU" traffic, but I just have to trust ASUS QoS algorithms work how they are supposed to? And you mentioned encrypted traffic gets lumped...
