    Synology Mesh questions (RT6600ax)

    Hello everyone! I'm having some trouble I think will be resolved going to a Mesh network but may be addressed using Range Extenders and I'm looking for advice, help, and suggestions. We have a 4-story building of about 4.000 SF that meanders down a fairly steep mountain slope at around 7,800'...

    Input Requested: Router for Surveillance

    Greetings everyone! I have a question I hope you can help me with. I haven't bought a new router since my ASUS 87's in 2015 so I'm more than a little rusty, ok — rusted over. I need to install some cameras to watch the outside of a small building in a shopping center so if the building gets hit...

    Security Issue AC87

    I caught this bit of data in my log. The ip's trace to known bad actors, but this is a new twist tapping high ports, etc. I've seen the bot scans for PPTP b ut this is different than normal, perhaps OpenVPN scans? I don't know, can someone take a look at this? I can send the log in full if...

    Has Asus abandoned asuscomm.com DDNS

    Over the last year or more I have noticed asuscomm.com is increasingly down and not functioning. This has happened so often and so long that is has passed any imagined "tipping point" and has now become the rule, rather than the exception. On any given day at any given time it has become...

    Hi, Gang! Sky here. Our VPN went offline last week. At the same time, Is it down, or just me was and continued reporting asuscomm.com down.

    HELP: VPN client can't connect to RT-AC87R after FW update

    The VPN client on my beloved but aged Toshiba laptop has stopped working, but the clients on other laptops and desktops continue working well. The Toshiba VPN client has worked for years now without any problems and no changes were made to the client nor host VPN settings. The Toshiba and the...

    Solved ASUS RT-AC87 System log missing days (Synology issue?)

    The System Log in my AC87 is missing all activity between 13 April 12:59:06 and 17 April 09:05:07, a period of about 3-days 8-hrs 6-min 1-sec. There is no space between the log lines, no blanks. You wouldn't even notice it without a close reading of the log. I have my AC87 reboot every day so...

    Solved AC87 vs Gigabit broadband

    Hello, Everyone! I recently upgraded my broadband to gigabit over coax with Comcast (982/35 download/upload) and am seeing some issues. Hopefully wiser minds will point me the right way… I have coax coming into the building from my ISP's branch box about 60' from the modem. When I connect a...

    Solved RT-AC87U login CAPTCHA

    I have an RT-AC87U using secure login that started requiring me to enter a CAPTCHA every time I login. I recall this CAPTCHA thing started happening 2-or-so firmware versions past when the user failed to login properly, but this issue is different. It appears to be confined to happening with...

    Lets Encrypt failing update... again

    My LE certificate is failing to renew… again. This is like a constantly repeating scenario. Is anyone else seeing this?? UPDATE 6 AUG 21 This orphan thread has sat long enough that the LE cert finally renewed. From the logs it looks like asuscomm.com is the long-running and still ongoing...

    Solved I can't login to my new Syno with AiCloud — use DS File

    Hi, all! I've just replaced my now-dead 9-yo Drobo FS with a new Synology DS920+. I'm trying to setup the Syno's firewall (I have a user that seems to attract malware behind my router). AiCloud can "see" my network share on the Syno (Windows network, Syno using Btrfs) but the Syno won't allow...

    Solved CAPTCHA on RT-AC87R Login

    I just got a CAPTCHA confirmation on my RT-AC87R logging in. I've never seen that before. Is this a security feature in 382.52230? I have been doing a lot of reboot-login cycles playing around with IP reservations. It happened once, then returned to normal and has not come back. This seems a bit...

    Solved Best Way to Reserve IPs: LAN>DHCP List (or) Client Status>MAC and IP Address Binding?

    I have a handful of devices that need to have reserved IPs due to their rather limited or non-existent ability to reconnect if their IP changes after a warm boot or a power cycle. These aren't static IP clients, they have no user-enabled ability to "set" the IP on the client; they're just really...

    Network Monitoring vs NCSI (dns.msftncsi.com)

    I often see delays getting a good time sync in my System log, so I was thinking about enabling Network Monitoring [Administration > System > Network Monitoring]. When I clicked [x] DNS Query, I was surprised to see the following entries already there: Resolve Hostname [dns.msftncsi.com]...

    Considering the issues with CVE-2019-15126 (krOOk), et al compromising even AES WPA2, is WPA3 something that can be implemented on the ASUS RT-AC87 routers? Sky

    Solved Requesting log review of possible attack

    Greetings. I have been seeing some strange listings in my General SysLog. I added line feeds & emphasis to make it clearer to read. I think what's happening is the actual user name (replaced by _USERNAME_ below) may be compromised. I can't tell from this if the password is also compromised or is...

    Solved AiProtection & URL Filter — am I using it wrong?

    Greetings, All. I am trying to figure out if I am just spinning my wheels, wasting time, and worse — wasting precious memory on my router, or if what I'm doing is actually worthwhile. I suspect I'm simply duplicating an already working system and maybe even causing it to be less efficient than...

    Solved RT-AC87U / RT-AC87R firmware 3.0.0.4_382_51939 issues

    Greetings. Has anyone else been suffering problems since updating, or trying to update to the latest FW (3.0.0.4_382_51939) for the RT-AC87U routers? When I tried to update one of my AC87's it was nearly bricked. It kept rebooting every few minutes. If I connected via WiFi, it rebooted and...

    [RT-AC87R] AiProtection Two Way IPS define "Top Client"

    Greetings, all! Sky here. I'm wondering if someone can help me decipher the AiProtection reports from our RT-AC87R's. We run a couple of these on two separate LANS. Most of the report(s) I "get" but one I don't quite understand. What is "Top Client"? It seems to be the "conduit" vs. the...
