    Greetings, denizens of SNBForums, I come before you with a vexing issue that has me ensnared in a web of wireless woe. I am the proud owner of an ASUS GT-AX6000 router, and I've recently made the switch to Merlin firmware. The transition has been mostly smooth, and I've particularly enjoyed the...

    Cast Chromecast from OpenVPN client

    Hi, I've been spending days trying to be able to cast to my Chromecast without being in my WiFi (to send a movie to my mother when I'm not at home...) and had no luck. It'd also be useful for other services, like Sonos. I read some threads here about connectivity between guest networks, but my...

    XT8 FW 3.0.0.4.386.26044 breaks Sonos

    Hi, Just wanted to share if anybody runs into the same issues. Upgraded to the 3.0.0.4.386.26044 firmware on my XT8 and all my Sonos devices started acting flaky. They were all on the WiFi but I couldn't control them from any apps and they couldn't connect to play music. A quick downgrade to...

    Philips Hue Bridge & Sonos connected to AiMesh node randomly not discoverable on LAN

    When it happens I can still ping everything connected to the node just fine from behind the master AP. Everything on the node still has internet. But, for some reason the Hue app will connect via WAN instead of LAN, which still works, but the Sonos speakers disappear from the app (besides the...

    With all the AirPlay 2 talk going on right now around its official release, it got me interested in being able to AirPlay music from my iOS devices to my Sonos speakers, with the help of my Asus router. It seems that an open source utility AirConnect allows this, and does have pre-compiled...

    NAS Specs for fastest search rate of FLAC file library

    I'm planning on ripping my 800 CD collection to FLAC files and then giving access to that library through my SONOS system. I've gotten a couple different opinions from NAS server manufacturers so I thought I'd try to clear that up here. I'm presuming the music stream is no issue so the only real...

    Airtime Fairness missing

    Hi, I don't appear to have Airtime Fairness as an option on both my RT-N66U running 380.65. It is available on the RT-AC87U. I've been told to disable it by Sonos as I'm getting lots of connection drop outs. Any ideas? Thanks, Shalston
