    Are you using IPv6?

    Good comments here, thanks. Has anyone specifically disabled IPv6 on their devices, and if so, why?

    Are you using IPv6?

    Just curious. How are you using IPv6 in your home network?

    Better search and sorting

    These forums have evolved to be primarily about ASUS products and more specifically about the Merlin alternative firmware. I appreciate your desire to help here, but you are probably better off over in Reddit for helping with ISP issues.

    This doesn't help?

    Advise for new purchase of newer model ASUS router that gets Merlin Firmware for 3 bedroom appartment?

    There is no need to be rude. That behavior is not tolerated in these forums and will result in a temporary ban.

    What's your experience: Does your mesh system keep working if the WAN goes down?

    @Tech9 This isn't research. It's the reality in test labs. @sfx2000 A NUC wouldn't help unless it emulated whatever server was required for operation. At any rate, I think I'm ok as long as the mesh stays function when the WAN goes down. I would think this would be a functional requirement...

    What's your experience: Does your mesh system keep working if the WAN goes down?

    @Tech9 Thanks again for the info. @sfx2000 The boxes have filtered Ethernet and USB ports. The issue is that customer sites generally lock down their internal networks pretty tightly these days. Getting authorization to add a device to the network is a big deal.

    Thanks @Tech9. It's likely that the system keeps operating if WAN is down, but I'd like to be sure.

    Yes, very pricey. Last I knew, which was awhile ago, they set up using an app, but had web screens also for limited local admin.

    I take your point. But this is more for test script development. Measurement correlation isn't part of what I need to do.

    @aex.perez Thanks for the info. I assume from your sig that you have an ASUS AiMesh setup. I'd expect that it would stay up since app/internet based management for ASUS is not the norm.

    What's your experience: Does your mesh system keep working if the WAN goes down?

    I know this is an odd question, since what good is an Internet router without internet, right? But in my work as a Wi-Fi test engineer, we put these systems in RF-tight chambers and typically don't have an internet connection available. I know the eero Pro will continue to operate without an...

    Malware damaging ASUS routers?

    @Tech9 , @iFrogMac You two will need to agree to disagree. I suggest you spend some time ignoring each other for awhile.

    Colder is not better?? Cooling a CPU on a WiFi router.

    @KGB7 No need for personal attacks.
