    Ditto... using WG on main lan and a different one for guest. On initial setup I had an issue with a specific WG server, but created a new profile for a different server in the same endpoint city and it has stayed stable for many days. Note I'm using Proton VPN with WG.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.4 is now available

    Are you perchance testing through a VPN? I ran ShieldsUp through my VPN (wireguard, running on the router) and it detected the VPN endpoint IP, not my actual IP, and gave passing grade on all service ports, but also indicated PING fail due to response. My Firewall settings are set to Not Respond.

    Ups for asus

    That's pretty neat! I have a UPS that my router is plugged into as well, but it is very far from my ONT modem, so if power goes I'm still down. Maybe one of these for the ONT alone?

    Brightspeed Fiber - Asus Router

    Also, see if you can locate instructions on how to get into the fiber ONT in an online user group and put it into bridge mode. For my Quantum fiber it was as simple as plugging in its IP into my browser and it popped up the internal menu.

    BE86U upgrade from AC86U - AIMesh problems

    FWIW - I have a BE86u and had an AX57 and AX58 as mesh, both hanging directly off the BE86 and everything 'worked' as expected. Even was notified by the flashing bell and ran a firmware update for the AX57 through the BE86 (manual fw download, flash through the BE86 upgrade interface).

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.3 is now available for WIfi 7 devices

    Just upgraded to BE96U taking advantage of a price reduction to $449, plus a 15% further discount at Best Buy by trading in an old, retired AC86U. Total cost just over $400 with tax. Loaded this 3006.102.3 on first boot. All performing as expected.
