    Repeater choice and its speed-halving questions

    For simplicity's sake, neglecting the range concerns for now. There is a AC750 source router with one 5Ghz spatial streams, meaning 433Mbits top speed. Now, normal people would buy an AC750 repeater and they are sure to have their speed halved. There just isn't enough bandwidth. 1. If I buy any...

    How to prioritize remote HTTP interface over local clients?

    I run an Asus RT-AC88U router at an apartment building with many users. But I am located offsite, so I use the router's remote HTTP interface. When I'm on-site at the apartment building, I can prioritize my own traffic over the residents if I need to get something done. However, when I'm located...

    speedtest result over wi-fi

    Hey all, So I just got AT&T fiber internet installed today, 300 mbps up and down. I set the gateway up for IP passthrough, so I could use my TP-Link Archer C5 (with OpenWRT) instead of the unit AT&T provided. My wireless throughput over the LAN averages between 45-50 MB/s (360-400 mbps)...

    RT-AC5300 all wifi networks reverting to 20MHz bandwidth

    Hi all I'm having a problem where all wifi bands (2&5) are reverting to 20MHz and performance is basically non existant. Rebooting the router puts them back at 80MHz for 5 and 40MHz for 2 and performance is temporarily restored. I seem to be able to trigger this bug by making small changes to...

    TP-Link repeaters wastes 715 MB/month on NTP

    If you’ve got a recent model TP-Link repeater (not routers!) on your network, you may want to look more closely into its NTP related traffic. Especially if you’re paying by the megabyte or are on a tight monthly data cap! I found that the firmware on TP-Link repeaters sends and receives 715 MB...
