Hi all
I got a Verizon 5g home service and I have a strange issue. Originally I got an ASK-NCQ1338 router with passthrough capabilities but it would get a new IP and literally mean a different IP every 2 hours. It would break my VPN because it takes Asus 3-5 seconds to get WAN IP. I spoke with their tech support, which is useless, and they agreed to give me the latest new route model ARC-XCI55AX. This one is better but still has issues. The weirdest thing is that in passthrough mode ARC-XCI55AX gets an IP as the IP of the WAN+1. For example, if Asus WAN IP is 123.123.123.123 then ARC-XCI55AX would be accessed by 123.123.123.124.
The lease time on asus is reported as 60 seconds but I don't think it changes every 60 seconds based on log.
I had a 386.7 running and every day or even a couple of times a day I would lose internet to all devices connected to ax3000 but if I try to test internet speed under QOS/Internet speed tab then I get full speed. I have switched back to 386.5_2 and it got better I would only lose internet once in 2-3 days. It would start with google search or access to gmail but bing would still work fine for a little bit but then the whole internet access is not there. I upgraded back to 386.7_2 and the problem is back like it was on 386.7
I have read somewhere that ARC-XCI55AX has some issues with Asus AI but I have done a full reset and have not activated any of AI features at all.
I can also set up DMZ between the ARC-XCI55AX and AX3000 but I think pass-through is a better choice. I could also set up ax3000 as AP as well.
Any thought on what would be the best approach? Why this thing is not working?
I also have Netgear R7000 that I could set up instead of AX3000. The problem of course is that I work from home and can't putz around too much with it.
Thanks
