    Media/Plex 4k Transcode Reccomendation?

    My head is spinning reading all the different options for a NAS that's capable of streaming transcoded 4k from Plex. I want to spend as little as possible and don't really need RAID etc, just the ability to stream and transcode 4K content instead of doing it from my main gaming PC. Would...

    RT-AX86U keeps losing 5Ghz only on desktop

    I had this on the same router and on an AC68U also. Try disabling beamforming in ...wireles -> professional.

    Sorry if it's already been asked AX86U Merlin FW?

    Well, I have this router with a return window until the end of January 2021. Think I'll return it by then, may as well get a WiFi6e. I'll maybe jump back on to my old AC68U with Merlin on it. Not sure how well it will handle my new 1gig net connection though.

    Sorry if it's already been asked AX86U Merlin FW?

    Seen further down. Reason I ask is I have a return window and if it's not going have support I'll swap it back out for a third time luck try at the AX88U.

    AX86U Dropping 2.4

    All of the above were already set. 2.4 AX disabled, WPA2 set rather as 3 or 2/3, AI protection off. Wireless survey shows no heat above the 2.4 in my area strong enough to affect my signal. Manually set to 7 and tried auto assign....even though not nearby 2.4 interfering. All patch cables are...

    AX86U Dropping 2.4

    I used an AC68U for a long time and combined with Merlin FW on a DOCSIS 200meg connection it served me very well indeed. Alas my teenager kids started to saturated my home network and internet very quickly and the dual core CPU really was under duress for a good bit of time. So I upgraded to a...

    New RT-AX88U firmware 3.0.0.4.384.9107

    Anyone tried it? Anything fixed from the last update? Are the 'gaming' features fixed such as the the device prioritisation allowing more than one device?

    RT-AX88U new firmware 3.0.0.4.384_8018

    Just bunged it in there to see, mostly out of curiosity. It's added a some features that were in their more 'gaming' aimed models. Such as, one click port forwarding for popular online gaming titles, per device within network prioritisation for gaming and a mobile setting where you set the...
