Sorry for the late response. Thank you guys. I think the problem was DAP 1522. I bought a Ubiquiti EdgeMax router and use AC68U as AP and now I get the same speeds as provided by the ISP. To answer your question about AC68U in a closet, it'll depend on a lot of things. How far is your...

Would this be different is the AP only supports 100 Mbps physical link? I have a D-LINK DAP1522 connected as a wired AP to my router (1000 Mbps) but only gives me 50% bandwidth on wireless STAs. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Since there is no reply let me update my questions. 1. Does setting up a router in AP mode or using an AP (like Ubiquiti Networks UAP-AC-LITE-US) always reduce the WiFi bandwidth in half when the STA (device) is latched on to the AP? 2. Is there a way to avoid this, at least on a router...

I live in a 800 sq. ft. apartment and currently have a RT-AC68U that connects to 2 HDD which serve as a NAS. The router was kept in the living room and it served me well without any WiFi issues. Because of all the cables and the HDD clearly visible in the living room, I decided to move my...

I recently found out that my ISP have enabled IPv6. I want to use IPv6 so that I don't have to mess around with DDNS for my OpenVPN server and SSH server. I've a Asus RT-68U router running RMerlin. When I enable IPv6 for my network, all the devices get a global IP. 1. Do I make my network...

Thanks. The HDD reads fine on the PC and no bad sectors. I'll try again on the router.

any help?

FYI, after previous issues, I formatted both my HDD as EXT4. Both my HDD are 4TB WD with external power source.

All my drives were working fine until now. The one connected to the USB 2.0 port is not being detected by the router. I've tried rebooting the router and also re-plugging the drive. Following is the log: Sep 10 07:39:43 kernel: usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2...

Going through my stuff, I found a D-Link DAP 1522 AP. Can I convert it into a switch a use it connect the 2 routers and effectively be able to access both the networks?

I read somewhere that in AP mode, OpenVPN can't be used on RT-AC68U.

Won't the connection be better via cable?

I want to connect as many devices via cable as possible but I would like to keep the RT-AC68U in the living room to allow good WiFi coverage around the apartment. Each of the wall sockets only allow 1 connection. Can you suggest how I can connect all the devices to just one router?

Attached are the diagrams. Hope this helps. So the current setup is: N12 <---> ISP Source <---> RT-AC68U And I would like to have (shown in diagram): ISP Source(closet) <---> N12 (closet) <---> RT-AC68U (connected to the DMZ port; living room) The goal is to allow devices connected to either...
