Looking for help finding a 2230 m.2 wifi module that support WIFI 6e that is actually usable. I was very hyped to jump into 6 GHz bands, got myself ASUS AXE16000 and was really bummed to realize that total of single device that I own can connect there reliably, which is my mobile phone. Long...

OK, Joking aside I have decided to break down the new toy and sell the parts on Ebay, while it is working well and seems a shame (It's Original cost was in the region of 3K (12 years ago), it is just too noisy, energy consuming (160w on boot, 106w on idle, I bought a watt meter, best thing...

Is it possible to run Asuswrt-Merlin firmware (for AX88u) in a Virtual Machine on a Mac/PC? Say using VMWare or Parallels on a Mac? Or maybe as a Docker image? I am trying to test various scripts in /jffs and it is quite cumbersome having to factory reset the router (whenever I break something...

Hello all, not really sure what to provide or where to start but I'm pretty capable and if you request more info and tell me what you want, I should get that to you pretty quickly. I was supposed to start work 1 hour ago, but I can't since my internet isn't working. This started about 2.5 weeks...

Hey peps of SNB forum! First time poster and beginner at networking- and NAS systems. I’m playing with the idea of setting up a NAS coupled with my home router, either a prebuilt by Synology, Qnap etc; or a diy system running some dist of Linux. Either way, my question is the following: Say I...

Hey guys (and gals) Newbee here with a strange question that i am not really sure how to ask properly.. so i just start at the beginning i personally had a HD raid1 issue which cause me to connect a degraded raid1 drive into an usb 3 external case, connect it to my Laptop (Dell XPS with POP-OS...

Hey guys, sorry in advance if I sound like a noob but I don’t often ask questions online. What I’m aiming to do is a bit of a doozie in terms of difficulty (at least to me). Basically, I set up an always-on Raspberry Pi BitTorrent box. On that Raspberry Pi is a samba and SFTP shared external...

I have been reading through the forums and on the internet and have not found an answer to my problem so I am posting here. I am trying to get my laptop to use the usb disk connected to my ASUS rt-ac68u router so that I can transfer and store files. I can see the folder names however I CANNOT...

Not sure I'm putting this question in the right subforum, so many to chose from. I'm on a Asus RT-N66W (same as RT-N66U, just different colour) with AsusWRT-Merlin firmware. It has a function to work as a FTP server through Asus DDNS (myusername.asuscomm.com) but even though I run a VPN client...

Long story short, my router (ASUS RT-1750B1), is not capable of processing over 20D/50U Mbps over OpenVPN and my VPN provider (NordVPN), does not support L2TP or PPTP - cheers guys! So I was thinking about a way to curb OpenVPN'ing on the router and I came up with this setup: - Install Ubuntu...

Thought I would mention this... I think one of the poignant points here... I hope at age 70+ that I have the opportunity to thank people for using contributions I might have made. I wish Tom well, and deeply thank him for his efforts. We only have so many turns around the sun to make a...

Greetings, I have installed OpenVPN on a Windows 10 box and a Kali Linux box. On Windows, a second VPN connection is routed through the first VPN connection. On Linux, a second VPN connection is routed outside of the first VPN connection. I believe both cases to be the default behavior...

I need to move over 100k files from each of several directories. Select-all + drag-and-drop sometimes fails. I'd prefer to set a task, but for some reason I can't get the move command to work. What am I doing wrong (see examples below). I'm tying to move the files from the "13" directory up...

I'm not very familiar with Linux commands and need some help in producing the kind of list I need. My directory structure is as follows: Fagan_NAS_01 (root) Fagan_General (directory) #recycle (directory) list (directory) TossMe (directory) testfile.txt (file) testfile.txt (file) Output...

Old stuff - but a goodie - wiki markup here... ====== Iperf3 ====== While Ookla (speedtest.net) is a great resource when out on public networks, I'd recommend having something on your LAN for more consistent and thorough results. Multi-platform support is key for a tool like this. We've...
