image1 Hello Guys, I recently bought this AX 86 U router, I have my PC plugged into via ethernet cable, I use cat 8 cable. I watch a lot of streams (youtube and twitch) sometimes when I click streams or movies to fast forward a few seconds or minutes, my router just times out and resets the...

Hi everyone. I am new here so if this is in the wrong thread please let me know. I recently upgraded to 1 gig fiber internet. My Netgear R7000's wired speed doesn't seem to be as fast as it should be. The R7000 has only one LAN connected to a PS5 and 8 wireless devices. When I did speed tests on...

Hi! Sorry if this has been asked before. Could I turn my Asus XT8s to APs that can handle multiple SSIDs and VLAN tags using Merlin? I'm looking to convert them to pretty much like Unifi and TP-link Omada APs. The XT8s are wonderful as APs. I get close to 900 Mbps using iPerf. But I need SSIDs...

Hi! I'm new here, I just installed Asuswrt-merlin on my RT-AX58U. I've configured OpenVPN and everything is working fine, I created multiple users and assigned static IPs using this guide. Now, I would like to configure some rules using iptables to achieve this: - Only two users can access the...

Okay - so I've been playing with OpenVPN on my XT8 router. I posted some questions on Reddit, but this may be the better place to post - since you guys are experts :) So a little bit about me: - I live in USA - I have a XT8 router in Mesh mode (with another XT8). - I use the Mac eco system...

Hello guys, Title says all. So, after flashing a new build I noticed I have new CA\Server Keys in OpenVPN, so, the router doesn't keep the previous keys. My question here is, are these new keys built-in the new ROM image, or are they generated in first boot, and unique per each device? Thanks

Hey Guys, this ist my very first post in this great forum. I learned so much in the past years reading here. Nevertheless I feel still very new so I never felt to contribute something others couldn't do better anyways. Now I'm completley stuck with this problem to which I can't find any...

Hi everyone, I recently got a new Asus AX92U. It is connected to a Fritzbox router, which doesn't establish an internet connection but allows the Asus Router to do so. There are no error logs on the Fritzbox. The Asus router, however, every once in a while, loses all connection. All network...

Hi all, Since my JFFS partition on my previous router (AC68U) got corrupted, tried so many way to recover but in the end I still can't get it mounted. It makes me a bit afraid of using JFFS partition to run add-ons/scripts. FreshJR QoS was the only add-ons I used back then. My question is, is...

I've been reading and searching this forum for quite a while, there's a lot to dig into! I'm well satisfied on almost every question I've come up with. I have seen where these two questions have been rather discussed, including the faqs, but not in the past year or two. Can someone confirm the...

I was wondering if there’s a custom firmware available for DSL-AC51 because I don’t feel Asus stock firmware is secure this unit does not have AiProtection and it would be great if I could switch it to Asus Merlin and put on skynet and other scripts. I can’t really find anything online so that...

I have an Orbi system. It is on the latest update. I use fibre with no username/password or anything, it just works. I did drop my router before having these issues, but I also changed ISP at the same time. The drop was only a few inches and everything seemed fine. I was using it in AP mode...
