I thought I had disabled all TM-dependent features, but looking back at the settings, I think Traffic Analyzer was still enabled at the time I withdrew from the TM agreement. Besides Traffic Analyzer, I have only ever used Parental Controls, Web History, and ASUS DDNS. ASUS DDNS continues to...

Yup.

You hit it the nail on the head. I had all Trend Micro features turned off, but I had not withdrawn. After I withdrew from the agreement, the speedtest result on my PC shot up to 2 gbps on the DL. ugh. Kinda interesting that a built-in feature prevents another built-in feature on the router...

That's outside of what I'm willing to do, especially considering that I've never had any complex configs on this router. I'm willing to "suffer" with 1 gbps internet DL speeds. If this is a real issue with the LAN port performance, I figure that other people will report it as well. The...

I've tried different cables. I should have mentioned that in my first post in this thread.

I plugged the PC directly into the modem, and after a modem reboot to get the modem talking directly to the PC, the PC got 1850 mbps down on SpeedTest app, so the router is definitely the issue for me. To answer the question about router config - its pretty basic. No Trend Micro. One guest...

I have yet not plugged my LAN PC directly into my cable modem. There was no time for that today. I'll try to do that in the morning. Sorry for not fully describing the topology. The router 2.5g LAN port is normally plugged into a Netgear multigig managed switch that creates the hub of my...

Dredging up this thread. My GT-AX6000 2.5g LAN port is acting like its in 1g mode despite the router log showing it in 2.5g mode. When I run the router WAN speed test, I get 2 gbps DL speeds, but when I run speed test from the Speedtest.net app on my computer with it directly attached to the...

I'll add to the fray - Up until about a year ago, my ISP (Comcast) only provided highly symmetric bandwidth options in my area. When running without any QOS, I never once experienced an issue with constrained outbound bandwidth despite my wife and I both working from home, running a bit torrent...

Since wifi 8 is not expected to be completed until 2028, maybe we'll see a few years of router model stability which should make your efforts a little easier.

I guess it seems odd for this to be a beta because there is nothing in the release notes that seems any different than a normal FW update.

Get the Go if you want the least expensive Merlin FW ASUS router.

Is there a difference in GNP setup? I seem to recall hearing that 9006 firmwares 37000 and higher have the newer SDN setup.

Thanks for the comments everyone. I ended up passing on a mixed Expert/non-Expert scenario.

Not sure where to put this question - As the title says, can ExpertWiFi routers be used with non-ExpertWiFi routers in a mesh/AP scenario, specifically, do I get the same level of integration as using two non-ExpertWiFi routers in a main/mesh or main/AP scenario? This would be for a...

I just bought one to use as an AP at my in-law's house. I'll be installing it in about a week.

I picked up an Amazon Resale BE58U that arrived today. I can get past the setup, but then I can't logon after that. It does not accept the wifi password (which is entirely numeric), and it keeps rebooting. Resetting it with the reset button and/or the WPS reset method gets me back to the...

I guess I'll toss out the comment that the now least expensive router with Merlin support is the RT-BE58_Go.

I tried unsuccessfully to post the Routing Table from the server side. I'll try again. I can and do routinely interact with devices across the VPN connection by using their local IP address. My primary desire is to prevent devices in a specific IP range on the server side from participating...

Before we continue with trying to configure OVPN to accomplish this, can I accomplish the same thing by using firewall-start IP tables on the client side which is a GT-AX6000 running Asusmerlin?
