    ASUS RT-AX86U AiCloud HDD device list "Stacked"

    Greetings, I have recently upgraded my ASUS RT-AX86U from the official ASUS firmware to Asus-Merlin v3004.388.6_2. However, after accessing AiCloud, I noticed that the HDD device list is "stacked" making it impossible to select items precisely. What actions should I undertake to resolve this?:)

    Upgrade from RT-AC1900P to?

    Hello, I'm currently running an Asus RT-AC1900P as my main router with a second RT-AC1900P as an AiMesh node on my 1st and 3rd levels of a townhouse, respectively. I feel I've had good coverage with this setup but I'm wondering if it might be time to upgrade at least my main router. The...

    Why is my wireless LAN speed slower than my wireless internet speed on AX86U?

    TL;DR: My WiFi internet speed is way faster than my WiFi LAN speeds. Why? Answer: It's because using samba to transfer a file between two computers, the AX86U's single 5GHz radio both receives and sends data at the same time - so bidirectional traffic. This saturates the radio, effectively...

    Routing packets through a wireguard client

    This might just be an iptables thing, but I can't figure it out. Short version: I'm trying to forward packets from a VPS to the router over wireguard (router is client) and forward them to the correct device on the LAN. I have a setup that I'm trying to carry over from my old DD-WRT router...

    Wireguard VPN Server Halves Download Speeds

    Apologies if this is old news to everyone, but on my RT-AX86U running 388.1 Merlin f/w, it turns out that activating the Wireguard VPN server effectively halves/caps download speeds. By coincidence I had also moved to a bigger tier (1.5G) at my ISP and assumed the problem was with them <insert...
