Hi all hope someone here can help.
I am on the NBN national broadband network in Australia and my service provider is Belong which is owned and operated by Telstra.
My connection is HCF (hybrid cable fibre)
My Asus rt-ac 68u worked fine fore the first 2 mnths and the router power cycles every morning at 4am.
I believe Belong maybe using MAC hardware locking (IpOE) but this does not make sense why would it stop working. When I plug the Sagecomm supplied pre-setup router in the connection works fine after about 5min.
When I unplug and plug the Asus in it says your service providers dhcp is not functioning properly.
Asus Wan is set to Automatic Ip and dhcp query to aggressive.
I have also cloned the wan mac from the sagecomm into the Asus but still no joy.
I heard they cycle the Mac locking every 4 hours so I will unplug all connections overnight and plug the asus in in the morning and see if it will work.
I will completely reset the asus-merlin and load the most recent firmware again.
Any advice much appreciated.
