Some routers have dual 10 Gbps Ethernet ports, so you can definitely go higher than this.

I suspect that there is a software issue which can cause the CPU to stall/crash. In many cases this results in the log reporting "CPU stall" and the RTC getting reverted to 1918. That specific issue seems to be almost resolved in 102_39848 - it was fully resolved for me at least, I believe one...

The RT-BE92U wifi isn't fully offloaded to a separate SoC like on the higher-end models. The higher-end wifi SoC have their own dedicated CPU, which runs the dongle firmware on it (the "dhd"). So higher CPU usage during intensive wifi usage does not really surprise me for those bcm675x models.

"Puffery" is where advertisers are allowed to make outlandish claims, such as "The number one brand in the country", or "Red Bull gives you wings". You can achieve that by having two routers connected together in a mesh/repeater setup. I remember back when I didn't have a Wifi 7 client to test...

Odd, since they didn't list it on their official EOL site: https://www.asus.com/event/network/EOL-product/ They were a bit late, since that product launched back in 2021.

There's nothing "virtual" about it. They simply no longer define wifi as being one main + four guest networks. Now, everything is just "a network", and you can define multiple networks (up to a certain number varying by model), with each network having its own separate settings. That's the...

As written in your own quoted change: ...minor CVE... None of these are critical. Same with a few additionnal CVEs that I will soon patch once I merge the PR for them.

General OpenVPN support questions are pretty off-topic here.

I'm not. What I'm saying is that I got that GPL code before 39125 even existed.

Since puffery is legal, the line is probably quite blurry.

When reading these "tech promos", you have to cut through the marketing BS to find the actual technical nuggets. For me is seeing how many new technologies are being added with Wifi 8. Whether they will provide the advertised enhancements remains to be seen. But the fact is, Wifi 8 seem to...

Latest firmware for your model was released last month, and the last GPL that I received for that model was back in October. So of course I would expect that firmware to be based off newer code than last October. You said "sometimes behind", and that's not true. I said almost always newer...

That is incorrect. The GPL code I receive is almost always newer than what most of their last firmware releases were based on. At worst it will be the very same version. But it will never be older than their latest firmware release.

Asus posted a fairly lengthy page on their website listing all the features introduced in Wifi 8. There are a lot more than I initially expected. https://www.asus.com/ca-en/content/what-is-wifi8/ Now, how much of these features will actually end up in most consummer-grade devices remain to be...

It's not. In Asuswrt, you can get OpenVPN working for remote access with just a few clicks. 1) Set access to LAN, LAN + Internet or Internet. 2) Add a user/password 3) Enable it 4) Export the config file Everything else can be left to the default setting - they are only there for people...
