    ASUS Router RT-AX89X cutting off connectivity constantly.

    Similar to this? https://www.snbforums.com/threads/internet-dropping-out-frequently-rt-ac87u.89774/#post-906280

    can configuration information of the same firmware version be exported/imported to each other?

    Summary; If you have to ask "is it possible...." the answer is no (to save everyone a headache). If you want to do it, go ahead, but be prepared for all sorts of bizarre issues and hope that a full manual reset and config resolves it. It is your router and your right to screw it up.

    Solved Internet dropping out frequently (RT-AC87U)

    Just to fill in some blanks.... My RT-AX88U has F/W 384.19 (I know it is old, but it is stable). I did roll back to 384.18 just to check, and install a fresh copy, and it still rebooted. It sits behind my ISP router, and the WAN IP is 192.168.0.1, with an internal LAN range of 192.168.0.x The...

    Would like to see more routers with 8+ ports

    Back in the day, I preferred a separate switch (or multiple actually) but for simplicity and space savings, currently it is more feasible for me to run everything directly off the 8 ports in my AX-88U. I have numerous switches (4, 8 16) sitting in boxes in the closet but will run this as long as...

    Solved Internet dropping out frequently (RT-AC87U)

    Not sure that "solved" is appropriate for the title of the thread. There is no actual solution, other then possibly replacing the router. The past 2 weeks I've been running into a somewhat similar issue where my AX88U was dropping WiFi. I then found that it was actually rebooting. I then...

    Creating an ethernet guest network

    Or, if you have a spare router, just set it up behind your main router as a wired guest network.

    Solved Wired and Wireless Router

    Buy one from somewhere with a good return policy. Try it and see if it resolves any of your issues, then decide to return it or not.

    How to recover lost files from Synology NAS DS415+

    And maybe consider a proper backup strategy for the future so you aren't scrambling trying to figure out how to recover data. Essentially, you got lucky this time. It may not be the same next time :)

    Securing a NAS without using a VPN

    Do a quick Google search on "NAS malware" and you may want to rethink exposing your NAS to outside access without a VPN.

    These types of Apple devices/services should be outlawed. No security fix is available at all

    I just keep my frequency jammer running 24/7 except when I'm running my RF scanner.

    Two ISP in same network, and choose whatever you like instantly (AX68u)

    When I had a primary (personal) and a secondary (work) ISP, I just setup both routers in the same subnet (with unique IP addresses of course). I would then just switch my default gateway to whichever one I wanted to use.

    CAT5e still shows 10/100...

    I'm m old school. Ive never used a wire cutter / stripper to remove the sheathing, I always use a utility knife to score it, then remove it by hand. I've also never used a pass thru connector. I like the idea, maybe not valid, that the wire is not exposed to moisture for longevity purposes...
