    IPv6 Native vs Passthrough (2-Router LAN)

    Topology Two ASUS routers: 1st plugged into a modem (w/ WAN aggregation) 2nd plugged into the first router both are in router mode and not set up as an AP One of the reason I opted for this setup is that I liked the idea of having a firewall on the client-router in order to apply some more...

    Windows Networking: Access Router (USB) that's Wired Into Connected Router

    I can't browse in File Explorer, but I can still access the device through the IP via HTTP (Edit: I was wrong on this, I must have been directly connected to the AC3200). Like you mentioned, these are separate networks, which I kind of prefer. I can use different DNS, firewalls, passwords to...

    Windows Networking: Access Router (USB) that's Wired Into Connected Router

    Router mode. To clarify the AX82U is the one directly connected to the modem/internet. They are both in Router mode. I considered setting up the AC3200 as an AP, but I think that would mean it would no longer have unique SSIDs, which was my main reason for keeping it, so I didn't have to...

    Windows Networking: Access Router (USB) that's Wired Into Connected Router

    Windows Networking: Access Router (USB) that's Wired Into Connected Router I found the title difficult to describe, but the topology is a fairly simple setup. I have two routers: RT-AC3200: has many WiFi devices connected to it and I've also added a USB drive for media RT-AX82U: a new router...

    Need Help Getting IPv6 Internet Working (Network Illiterate)

    More than ignorant. They say they can't access my modem, but I seem to recall whenever there's a firmware update, I think they need push it out to the modem. It's so silly. Regarding that fe80 gateway. I'm curious what device it points to because should anything happen I want to know what I...

    Need Help Getting IPv6 Internet Working (Network Illiterate)

    I have an Arris SB8200. There is no such configuration for Bridge mode (accessed via 192.168.0.1). Likewise, I called Comcast and they said they couldn't configure my modem. The person on the phone mentioned that setting a 'bridge' mode on the modem didn't make sense and that's only for...

    Need Help Getting IPv6 Internet Working (Network Illiterate)

    @L&LD I have followed all your instructions per your other post. Factory restore, set all those settings (even turning DOS attack off and short preamble for 2.4GHz band). I have new SSIDs (old PWs) and rebooted twice (5 mins apart), saved config. Then I enabled IPv6 to 'native' and no dice...

    Need Help Getting IPv6 Internet Working (Network Illiterate)

    I'll take the plunge this evening for a factory reset, but I suppose I can test the bridge mode right now. Update: I cannot put the router in bridge mode even if I tried, it's to create a wireless bridge and this is the only wireless access point. To describe the network topology again; there...

    Need Help Getting IPv6 Internet Working (Network Illiterate)

    Thank you for your consideration here. I had factory reset it in the past, but haven't done it lately. I'm hoping to first diagnose that I am receiving the information I should see and have set things up properly before moving on to a complete restore. This router has 3 bands, used for...

    Need Help Getting IPv6 Internet Working (Network Illiterate)

    For the longest time I thought my ISP (Comcast) was late rolling out IPv6 in my area. It turns out, they’ve had it this whole time and there is something about my setup that I need help diagnosing what’s wrong. Router: ASUS RT-AC3200 Modem: Arris SB8200 ISP: Comcast I have to be honest, I used...
