    SIP Passthrough

    Until recently, I had an RT-AC87u with merlin on it. Recently I updated my router and replaced it with RT-AC86U. (The Asus numbering scheme is weird - the 86 is way newer than the 87. Go figure.) The new router AC86U is running Merlin 384.4_2. For quite a while I've used Onsip as my...

    Edgerouter X speeds with QoS on? (+VPN/worst case)

    I've seen benchmarks but I don't recall seeing any with quality of service turned on. I'm even further curious whether other features can slow it down further - ie whats an absolute worst case that this router is capable of handling? What slows it down the most? I'm looking for something that...

    SIP Helper
