ASUS RT-AC87R New Settings Screenshot + My Feedback + 2 Issues

What if you dont want to hide your SSID's ??

I haven't tested it, but try these commands over telnet:

nvram set wps_enable=0
nvram commit
reboot

Then see if after the reboot the webui shows it on Off.

I can confirm that this works

Hey Merlin, have you had any issues with port forwarding in your testing? so far I've had to reboot my router every 6 hours or so because it would stop working. I've also noticed that it doesn't work LAN side.

I haven't tested port forwarding, however I'd be surprised if there was any issue with them, since this is a fairly basic iptables functionality, and it should operate the same on all Asus routers.

Try disabling device blocking, I couldn't connect to my plex server with it enabled.

I don't have it enabled, I changed the port on the device and on the router it seems to be working for now.

I just got similar messages on my new AC87:

kernel: br0: received packet on vlan1 with own address as source address

I went and looked at the log when my iPad Air2 lost connectivity this morning.

I do NOT have it configured to connect to 2.4gHz - only 5.

However, it is a wifi/LTE model, and I have not yet set-up LTE. I often see a message prompting me to set-up LTE when it first wakes up. There seems to be a lag connecting to WiFi.

I am using the latest Merlin release.

It was (apparently) fixed by turning WiFi off and then back on on the Air2. However, I also shut off WiFi on all of my other devices, so unsure. I checked, and no device is configured for both bands. All of the other devices are set to use 2.4gHz.
