I recently noticed that with the latest official ASUS firmware for the RT-BE88U (version 3.0.0.6.102_38186, released on August 8, 2025), a new feature was introduced in the changelog: SFP+ Port IPTV Support – Added IPTV configuration support on the SFP+ port After installing this update, I can...

I tried installing an SFP Stick ONT on my Asus BE88U router, but I ran into a major problem. My ISP is Movistar, and it offers tagged traffic in 3 VLANs. There's a profile already created in the Asus firmware that works perfectly. The problem arises when configuring the router with the SFP port...

I recently bought an ASUS RT-AX86U router and set my old ISP-provided Huawei ONT (HG8546M) to bridge mode. However, I am not able to bridge the IPTV connection even after manually setting the VLAN ID and priority in AX86U's IPTV configuration. How can I do that? I've attached the screenshots...

Hello! Internet provided via GPON bridge HG8310M. There are some VLANs: 0, 1, 30, 32, 60, 4081. If I plug my PC directly into the bridge, VLC plays udp://@239.255.*.*:5500 "forever". If I connect my pc via AX68U lan1 port VLC plays ok, but stops playing after 4:16 seconds, which is around 260...

My AX88U seems to have IGMP snooping problems. Every 5 minutes or so, the STB of my IPTV freezes and claims it has lost its network connection. Changing IMGP versions on my router (from V3 to V2 or back) resolves the problem, but only for 5 mins or so and then the IPTV freezes again. I tried to...

Hey all, I'm bringing another question here, because I haven't been able to find any detailed info. What does the Use DHCP routes setting do under LAN / IPTV? By default it's set to Microsoft, but I don't think I'm using the setting, so, should I set it to disabled? Also, does it control the...

Hello. I’d like to use ISP ONT as a “bridge” and use my own router build up the PPPoE connection. Works fine but then I can’t use IPTV because it only works when I connect my TV to the ONT. I can’t config the IPTV in my router because ISP does not give the settings to me. Is there any way to...

Hi On my old router RT-AC66U, I had the option under Lan/IPTV to turn on Enable Efficient MultiCast Forwarding (IPMG Snooping). This made the Telus IPTV working This is located under LAN/IPTV, I have a RT-AX86U router now, and I cannot find that setting. I have been waiting patiently to see...

I'm facing a problem with a recent setting my provider KPN (from the Netherlands) changed for their interactive IPTV boxes. Right now the setup is in bridged IPTV mode, where I simply just pass VLAN4 untagged to the IPTV box. (see attachment) But, what they changed recently is that you'd need...
