    Rsync interruption

    The path is correct and rsync starts transferring the files. But gets interrupted for some reason. I am going to try reboots on both the NAS and the router. Its been ~70 days since the last reboot on my router.

    Rsync interruption

    I use rsync on my RT-AC68U to backup some files from my primary NAS (running OpenMediaVault, with wired connection) to a USB hard drive connected to the router. rsync starts and is transferring files but gets interrupted after a random time. Here is the error message: ssh: Connection to...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    yeah. I am coming to the conclusion . I am planning to reach out to ASUS tech support as well.

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    So I got my new laptop yesterday. After installing all windows updates etc, I did a file copy test with results as below: 1. With laptops internal wifi - RTL8822CE 2x2 AC Wi-Fi, I am able to hit about 68-72 MBps. 2. With the USB-AC68 again maxes out at 30 MBps. This seems to confirm that the...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    Yeh. By defective, I meant that its defective that it always goes to USB 2.0 and is unable to support USB 3.0. I have tried plugging into the original desktop that it used to be connected to. But then that desktop is about 40 ft away, but with straight line of sight to the router. I am unable...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    All, To ensure I reduce variables, I reset my router and network settings on my windows10 laptop. After this reset, I setup 2 wifi networks on the RT-AC1900P. I retested with the two wifi adapters as below: 1. Manufacturer: Intel Corporation Description: Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    I am already using 80Mhz. I have tried all other options like the 20/40/80 and 20, 40, 80. One of the options did reduce the throughput slightly, but none of the options could produce the kind of throughput you are seeing.

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    USB SF Mode is one of the options available, but changing it did not make a difference. Other option was USB RF SELECT. That did not make a difference. At this point I am ready to give up. Improvement in throughput is not a must have for me. More like a nice to have. So I am going to pause...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    Here is the info with the USB-AC68 plugged in Protocol: Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) Security type: WPA2-Personal Network band: 5 GHz Network channel: 157 Manufacturer: Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Description: ASUS USB-AC68 USB Wireless adapter Driver version: 1030.27.425.2018...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    Sorry for the delay in getting back. Once its Monday its back to the grind! yeah. Its Mbps. Good catch. With the adapter connected to windows 10 or Ubuntu 20.04, they both report as 1.3 Gbps link speed in close proximity and also at some distance (with line of sight to the router and no...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    I think my clients are probably not capable of pushing high bandwidth. I tried with more clients and on my work laptop the throughput is significantly better. It has a Intel dual band wireless chipset as noted below from Windows 10 wireless settings page: Protocol: Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac)...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    The primary reason I doubted the router is because multiple devices on the network like an iphone XR, OnePlus 7Pro, Essential PH1 all register about 20-25 MBps when copying over videos. And the USB-AC68 registers similar numbers. One thing to note is that switching to separate SSID did not...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    Thanks for your response. I understand that theoretical speeds may not be achieved, but I was surprised by the difference between theoretical and actual, even when the laptop was right next to the router. If I could achieve even half of the theoretical max, I would be happy. :) I have a...

    Max wireless throughput on RT-AC1900P

    I have a RT-AC1900P running Merlin firmward. It works great. Super stable. But I am not quite happy with the wireless throughput. On wireless data throughput between my devices and wired NAS is only 20-25 MBps. But if throughput to my NAS from a laptop wired to the router, I can easily hit...

    Save SSH credentials

    Thanks for your response. I am not sure I fully understand the instructions. I think the incoming ssh authorized keys are for the host that I am connecting to. Please correct if this is incorrect. After I did a manual rsync over ssh, I looked at files in /tmp/home/root/.ssh/ i.e...
