Hello everybody,
I'm new to the forum and I found you looking for tips and tricks for my new purchase, an ASUS RT-AX58U.
I live in a house where I have my family on the ground floor and my apartment on the first floor.
The fiber connection, the ISP modem and the ASUS router are located on the ground floor and I was looking for the best wireless settings to make the most of this product both on the first floor where I live and for all smart devices for home automation (Sonoff, Google Home Devices, etc) and for all smart devices (PC, Smart TV, NAS, AC, etc).
Initially I read some guides where they advised to change many parameters in the Wireless and Professional settings but I think that everything is more messed up than before and many things no longer work as before (stupidly I didn't even make a backup before changing everything) ... the problem is that I have already configured the whole network weeks ago with DHCP, static IPs and more and I would not want to do a reset and start over.
Anyone can advise me on the optimal Wireless settings for my network?
I have also read the term Merlin several times but I did not understand if it is a more powerful custom firmware or what
Thanks for your help!
