Hello All you merlin Wizzards, I just recently got a RT-as5300 and love it It has a much more consistant VPN connection and a very fast reboot (in my opinion) Somthing I have been trying to figure out is why in the clients list I see no clients connected to the 5ghz networks. When I looked...

I have this AX55 Router and has some wired behaviors. From time to time, the wired connection will be disconnected. When it happens, unplug and replug the rj-45 cables does not help. The only way to solve the issue is to reboot the router. Strangely enough the wireless connections are not...

Recently purchased a pair of XT9 devices off Amazon. While setting up I've ran into an issue that I can't figure out. Wired devices plugged directly into the main XT9 using ports 1-3 are not able to talk to other wired devices. Doesn't matter if they are 100M devices or Gig devices. Those wired...

I'm at a loss folks and before I completely lose my mind in anger and throw all of these Asus routers against the wall, I'm hoping someone can help me figure this out. Basic premise is that I live in a 3000 sq ft home, half of it has an upstairs, along with attic space over the garage and all...

Hi all, My first post in the forum so go easy on me please.. I have recently got a new 1gig broadband package (with YouFibre). My set up is as follow: optical cable from outside > YouFibre ONT box (modem) > CAT 7 Ethernet > ASUS XT8 router > CAT5e WiFi speed is fine (around 700-800Mbps)...

Hi, I am wondering if there are any products that do range extending but that get their signal to extend from wired input via a Cat6 (or Cat5 or Cat5e or whatever) signal. I am wondering if there are products similar to the range extenders that you plug into an electrical socket (not...

I finally decided to upgrade my 8-year-old Linksys (EA6700) router and grabbed an AX86U from BestBuy this past weekend specifically for the 2.5Gbps port. Upon setting it up, I immediately updated the firmware to 3.0.0.4.386_44130. I have the 1.2 Gbps plan with Xfinity/Comcast and an Arris...

Hello, I have Synology DS1813 NAS, connected via ethernet to RT-AC86U running on Merlin 384.15, previously on 384.14. Only SMB is switched on my NAS. If DS1813 is connected directly to my PC, I am getting full 1 Gbps speeds (about 115 MBps read and write). If DS1813 is connected via RT-AC86U...

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...

Hi, I have an Asus AC-RT68R running Merlin FW 384.13 and I noticed a strange issue with a wired security camera I just installed. It is showing up in the router as a wireless 2.4GHz connection . I have another of the same camera that shows up as wired as it should. I can't find any other IP...

I have a wired LAN with an IP camera and I'm having problems in accessing the camera (cannot ping it) in the planned network. This (temporary) configuration works: Camera (POE) - Cat6 - Netgear GS308P - Cat6 - Laptop The camera has a fixed IP on a 192.168.0.1 subnet. Using the laptop I can...

Hi, I now realize that the AiMesh problems are because of the weak signal strength between the AiMesh host and the node. I have one host and a node. Even though they are wired, and the admin panel reports as the connection is wired, the node is being dropped and re-added depending on the...

As in subject, all my 5GHz clients as shown as wired. ASUS RT-AC87U, running Merlin 384.7. The first two are wired, the rest 5GHz. Am I only having this issue?

Hello I am looking for some guidance on setting up a Dual WAN setup for a small network. The only feasible high speed internet connections are via cellular with the option of 2 different service providers (Telus, Rogers). The cellular modems ZTE MF275R provided have no UI setting for bridge...

I was using my RT-AC66U as a full router with Asuswrt-Merlin 380.62_1. I got a pfSense box to do the routing function, switched my AC66U over to Access Point mode (for my wireless devices), and connected it to a switch with all the rest of my wired devices. Looking at the client list in the...

Hi! This might be my first post here as far as I can remember. I have two ISPs, one is cable with 120mb down/5mb upload and the other one is fiber with 200mb down/100mb upload. I have a Asus AC87U that I've purchased to use dual-wan (load balance bonding?) and have better speeds (320mb...

I would like to suggest an article which (primarily) approaches the testing of current router(s) from a different perspective, wired performance. It seems like every article is set upon measuring wireless performance as if that is what everyone wants. I use wireless, but don't really care about...

Hi All, I searched far and wide, could not find a simple solution for this. And I really thought it should be simple (famous last words :)) At home I have this setup: Asus RT68 router (running Merlin 380.61) <--> DLink DIR-645 (as an additional access point / switch) <--> QNAP TS-459 Pro. All...

I'm looking for a 4+ port wired router that can provide DHCP and effective QOS for a single 180 Mbps WAN Internet connection. I am currently using a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter POE which has only 3 available LAN ports and can only provide QOS up to about 90 Mbps WAN. Any recommendations appreciated.
