    Splitting Wireguard between Router and client

    Hi @ZebMcKayhan Almost a year on from my initial look at the Flow Cache restrictions with using WireGuard (WGM) see https://www.snbforums.com/threads/session-manager-4th-thread.81187/page-8#post-833178 I finally have a fast enough ISP for it to matter. With the latest rMerlin it looks like...

    Help needed on RT-AX88U Pro raw speed

    I am looking for some help on the maximum speed of the RT-AX88U Pro when flow control is disabled. If anyone has one of these and a 1 Gb (or faster) ISP link, what is the throughput if flow control is disabled? Background to request I have the older non-pro model and it caps put at around...

    Recommendation for 1Gb speeds with Flow Control Off.

    I have recently moved to 1 Gb Community Fibre and my RT-AX88U is limited by my requirement to run VPN (incoming and outgoing) for some devices. As I have a dual stack setup I am running Wireguard (via WGM), which in turn means I need Flow Control disabled. The net effect is to limit...

    Port Forwarding and IPv6

    I currently have both IPv4 and IPv6 running and using port forwarding for a couple of services. I am looking at changing ISP (to Community Fibre, cheaper and much faster), but they only offer CGNAT on IPv4. I am using Asus DDNS which is working fine on both IPv4 and IPv6, but would like to...

    Unbound Restarting Unbound

    Hi @Martineau, how can I restart unbound from a command prompt (ssh)? Background: When I reboot the router, unbound does not complete loading (possibly due to the way I setup the interfaces for IPv6 to work with Wireguard Manager) and so I always need to go to unbound_manager advanced to...

    Wireguard Session Manager - Discussion (3rd) thread

    another 6 months are up so, details of @Martineau's WireGuard manager can be found here and @ZebMcKayhan's invaluable setup guide here. Following on from #938 in the second thread Just thinking out loud Making a rule based on a device's ipv6 ip is going to be challenging, not just because it...

    5.0 GHz Channels in the UK

    I am based in the UK and have 2 AX routers bought in late 2019. As such only Band A & B were made available, in line with the EU/UK rules then applying. Since mid 2020, the UK authorities have opened up Band C (channels 149-165) and this does not require DFS (only TPC). Where I live the...

    Rebooting AiMesh Node Command.

    I am looking for the correct command to force a reboot of the AiMesh Node (RT-AX58U) directly from the Router (RT-AX88U) so that I can add it as a cru instruction. I can see that I can do this from the GUI (AIMESH>Node>Management>Reboot) and want to trigger this automatically. Background: I...

    AiMesh LAN speed expectations

    I have an RT-AX88U as main router and an RT-AX58U as the AiMesh node (connected wirelessly) and would like to know whether my LAN speeds are what I should expect (i was troubleshooting very slow speed on one PC connected via ethernet to the node, it turns out the motherboard is on the way out)...

    Scribe Scribe / syslog-ng re-load question

    Wifi Site Survey Question

    Can anyone recommend any Wi-Fi survey software to run on an AX88U (or AC87U). I can run various apps from my android phone (Wi-Fi analyser, Wi-Fi monitor)? I don't use laptops when at home and my desktops and servers do not have any wifi connectivity. The Wi-Fi is mainly used for phones...

    'Guest' Network on spare router (RT-AC87U)

    I have my main network (10.x.x.x) running happily (AX88U router, AX58U Aimesh node) - my thanks to everyone on this forum who have helped me get this far. My next thought is to add various IOT devices (security cameras, light switches, etc.) and as I have an old AC87U, I thought I could use...

    5.0Ghz Channel moving on RT-AX88U

    I have recently installed an AX88U as my primary router and an AX58U as an AiMesh Node, using wired ethernet as the backbone. 2.4 and 5.0 have separate SSIDs and after checking local channels usage, have set fixed channels, for each. For 5.0Ghz I have chosen 124 (I have also tried 120), as in...

    Understanding IPv6 and OpenVPN Client on Merlin

    I have noted below what I think I understand (which is almost certainly wrong) in the hope of understanding how other users manage their use of external VPN services. External VPN providers are split between those who have servers that fully support IPv6 tunnelling, those that send IPv6 traffic...

    VPN, Port Fowarding and DDNS issues

    I am running 384.7_2 on a AC87U I have a SlimServer (Logitech Media Server) and use port forwarding on two ports to access this when I am way from my home network. Because my ISP does not offer static IPs, I at use DDNS (xxx.asuscomm.com) and direct the client at the DDNS. This all works. I...

    OpenVPN Multiple client problem

    I am running 384.7_2 on a RT-AC87U, using NordVPN to setup specific VPNs for particular devices (VPN1 to xxx.xxx.xxx.100, VPN2 to xxx.xxx.xxx.200). The VPNs are setup using Exclusive DNS and Strict Policy rules. If I just connect one VPN everything is fine. If I connect the second then all...
