Link Aggregation on AC-56U possible ?

[hggomes]

Probably I will need some extra time on this, It seems the RT-AC56U switch has a different config, once I have the confirmation as working I'll update here.

Do you have any news ?

Not yet, this weekend I hope...

I don't care that it's just a "check box feature". How cool is it not to show a 2 gigabit network?

As long as it doesn't cause other issues and un-trackable glitches, I'd want it enabled too.

Cool or what? No problems.

John, you're such a nerd!

(Sorry, I couldn't resist).

But seriously, did you compare throughput before/after with the LAG or without (between your fastest, wired, computers)?

 

[JohnNerd]

Nerd and proud of it. Throughput is secondary. I haven't tested it yet.

Because it's not a 2GB network - it's 2*1GB networks - but if you really want to introduce that extra complexity into a working network, that's ok...

What complexity? There are no issues what so ever in my setup.

Keep it simple, keep it flat, and it'll be fast...

very cool - can you post script (code) you have used to get this done

I hope it should be almost the same for AC56U and AC68U, I would like to test this on AC68U when I get hands on Synology DS716+II

any progress on this matter ?

Yeah... it doesn't seem to be working. You should probably give this up. The source code would have been published a long time ago. More than one person has had the chance to do so.
