    Are UBNT Switches a good choice? 8 port POE

    I just did what you described above at my house. Edgerouter 12 plus a couple of switches and three access points (all Ubiquiti gear). It works really well actually! VERY steep learning curve though. There’s a lot of granular controls to wade through. I’m a tech geek and engineer so I wasn’t...

    rt-ac86u: vlans how to do it?

    Digging up this older thread... Did anyone get this to work? I'm interested in using my RT-AC86U as an Access Point and using VLANs to tag/isolate traffic.

    YazFi YazFi - enhanced AsusWRT-Merlin Guest WiFi inc. SSID <-> VPN Client

    Doing a bit more research, it looks like VLANs might be possible using some CLI commands. The question is, is it worth the time to figure it out or do I just bite the bullet and buy Unifi APs? :) @Fitz Mutch found a possible solution. I'm starting to look into it...

    YazFi YazFi - enhanced AsusWRT-Merlin Guest WiFi inc. SSID <-> VPN Client

    Thanks Jack, that's what I was afraid of. :(

    YazFi YazFi - enhanced AsusWRT-Merlin Guest WiFi inc. SSID <-> VPN Client

    I have read through most of this thread but I may have missed it... Let me tell you what I want to do and let me know if there's any way to do it (my searching says it isn't possible, but I wanted to ask the gurus around here): I want to use my three ASUS routers (2x RT-AC87U and RT-AC86U) in...

    Help setting up VLAN on ASUS RT-AC68U

    I'm interested as well. Looking to do some network re-mapping/organization and this seems like just the thing I might want to use.

    A "Sophie's Choice": AiMesh or Merlin?

    For what it's worth, I am using an AC86U as my main router and two AC87U's set up as access points. All running Merlin's latest firmware. I have the SSIDs set on each device as the same name across all three devices (i.e. ASUS_5G and ASUS_2_4G is the same on all three devices). I then set up...

    review of INTEL® WIRELESS-AC 9260/9560?

    That makes sense. Upload speed is the one that will matter for me. I will definitely keep an eye on things here though. There might be a "killer" setup that someone finds.

    [Beta 384/NG] Asuswrt-merlin 384.4 Beta is now available

    As another data point, the Site Survey is working on both of my AC87 access points (running 384.4 beta2). Also, everything seems good on my main router AC86. Well done @RMerlin !

    review of INTEL® WIRELESS-AC 9260/9560?

    Just did a test with a 700MB file transfer between my Thinkpad P70 and the NAS using TeraCopy. At the 866 link rate, I'm getting 51-54 MB/s in both directions which translates to about 410-430Mbps, which roughly matches what I get when doing web-based speed tests. Doubling that would be...

    review of INTEL® WIRELESS-AC 9260/9560?

    That's just it, I do an Acronis backup every night from my laptop to my Synology NAS, so transfer rate matters. My laptop would be the only thing that can use the HT160 bandwidth. I'll wait a bit to see what others have success with. :)

    review of INTEL® WIRELESS-AC 9260/9560?

    I just got the Killer Wireless AC-1550 and installed it into my Lenovo P70 Thinkpad. No WiFi card whitelist issue with this card/laptop combo. WHEW! Speeds didn't really change much from the stock Intel 8260 but bufferbloat scores on dslreports.com/speedtest improved dramatically! Went from D...
