    Has anyone configured DynamicDNS using IONOS? I am following their instructions and when I get to the configuration of the router, it is different. I am using a RT-AX88U Pro with the latest ASUS-Merlin. IONOS states: Configuring a Device To configure your device for Dynamic DNS: Log in to the...

    New ISP, New Speed, now need new ASUS Router

    I recently upgraded to Windstream kinetic fiber. I have the 2GB symentrical package. I left Comcast with a 1000/40 speed. I currently use a RT-AC5300 with Merlin. Performance has been fine with it and wireless OK. I am looking to upgrade to a new ASUS, compatible with Merlin and able to support...

    dnsmasq Issues [10953]

    I have attached it but it does not show the error like the syslog server does. I can attach the syslog server log but it will take some time to redact personal information. Here is a screen shot from syslog server for the start of the issue:

    dnsmasq issue that lead to crash of router

    While surfing the web, all of a sudden, I lost connection. I went into my room to see if Xfinity has rebooted and I saw the Asus RT-AC5300 with a red light. I looked at my syslog and saw many issues with dnsmaq as the tag and message. A power off and on of the router corrected the issue but I...

The setup went fine, I had "Force Internet traffic through tunnel" set and that worked well when turning off the client. I had specifically picked a workstation to test with. When I...

    RT-AC5300 Speeds Hampered by Merlin?

    NAT acceleration is set to AUTO in stock FW. I haven't reloaded Merlin to check it but I would assume if the upgrade keeps the settings??????

    I haven't used Merlin since my 87U. I have a RT-AC5300 that has been in production for almost a year now. I have Xfinity GB tier and consistently hover around 930, which is normal. I have tried multiple speed tests and multiple machines. Today I loaded 384.13 and after reboot, I could not exceed...

    AiProtection Alternative?

    I would probably be looking for something outside of the router. I have no issues with throwing up a stand-alone box, either physical or virtual. Something that would be web based for configuration would be nice. Multiple NIC configuration is fine also for internal and external access.
