Recently installed an AC3200 and AC68U to replace aging Apple Airport APs. The router was an ASUS 56u with tomato firmware. Replaced all that with new.
The 3200 is the router and the 68U is a second floor access point (backhaul over Ethernet). Everything is working fine except local DNS...
Any local dns query errors out... this is on a Mac network. Forward or reverse queries result in no domain found. External dns queries resolve just fine. I’ve played with every imaginable combination of local domain names (lan, home.lan, etc) as well as entries (including none) in the dhcp settings for local dns server. The Mac clients pick up the routers ip for DNS as well as whatever I set as the local domain.
I’ve been setting up home routers and networks for 20 years. Have never seen anything like this. Is it a “feature” of the ASUS firmware?
