    dnsmasq.conf.add not working on Guest Network Pro clients

    Because it was never intended to be used by end-users. This is for their own internal use. The new Network implementation has to be flexible enough to handle any kind of variation: main, guest, VLAN, not VLAN, etc... VLANs are defined separately from networks. You need some way to associate...

    (Rumor has it starting 11/20) Asus RT-BE96U $310

    Traffic Analyzer's application identification has been replaced by a new Asus implementation based on DNS identification a couple of months ago. Malicious website blocking still works. No idea about the rest, I don't use them.

    (Rumor has it starting 11/20) Asus RT-BE96U $310

    Again it's a matter of needs and budget. I've been using an RT-BE96U as my main router for over a year now, and for me it's fine, as I don't need Adaptive QoS.

    dnsmasq.conf.add not working on Guest Network Pro clients

    You should be fine just restarting dnsmasq, over SSH: service restart_dnsmasq

    dnsmasq.conf.add not working on Guest Network Pro clients

    That value is an internal index. You need to match it with the corresponding network to know which is which - @dave14305 's command will do that.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.6 Beta is now available

    The newer GPL code I use hides the MU-MIMO setting whenever the device supports OFDMA, in favor of the MU-MIMO setting present in the OFDMA/MU-MIMO dropdown. The latest published firmware is older and does not do that yet. I can only assume that this is by design. if(ofdma_support){...

    spdMerlin spdMerlin v4.4.16 [2025-Nov-16] - Internet Speedtest and Monitoring Tool for AsusWRT Merlin

    I've done some thread cleanup. Having technical disagrement can happen, but they should not spiral into personal attacks. Please keep it civil folks.

    What monitoring events to check on system?

    If the Internet goes down or I experience random connection failures, then I investigate. Otherwise, I just let mine do its job.

    (Rumor has it starting 11/20) Asus RT-BE96U $310

    Depends on needs and budget. Yes, it's a better device. But is it worth the extra cost? Depends if you have enough high bandwidth Wifi 7 clients to take advantage of it, or if you are in an area where 6 GHz would allow you to work around 5 GHz congestion, for example.

    Technical information about the GT-BE19000AI

    NPU, as the marketing focus of the product was "AI". Also, the BMC2711 is quite slower than the SL1680.

    Technical information about the GT-BE19000AI

    It's a completely different engine, with licensing and technical details involved. If it happens, it's not just a 5 minutes job.

    Why Asus new Password security policy is ridiculous

    That's for local users, not router admin.

    No.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.6 Beta is now available

    I got it before launch, in early October.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.6 Beta is now available

    Fixing the IPv6 logging won't be doable on my end. Internally, that function does not receive the whole IPv6, it only receives a small subset of it. Fixing it will require more low-level changes, which falls in Asus' courtyard.
