    DNS Providers - Who to trust?

    You know, I've just accepted that no matter what DNS setup I use, someone's going to see at least a little bit of my data. That hasn't made me give up on privacy, but it has made me change how I do things over the years. Right now, I've got uBlock and the Origin variant running in my browser. My...

    XT9 - how to switch off the 5-1 GHz?

    How safe? Well you can try it and see, as you can easily switch back! You might be better off though if you were to manually set it to a channel (and use a thinner channel width) in the lower band that no one else appears to be using. Give it go and maybe post back with the router model, and...

    Solved Get openvpn andorid app to work

    I've had the time to have a bit of a play with this today. I cannot get the app that you are using to work to save my life. The Official (and its free) Android OpenVpn Connect (suggested by Ripsod) app works like a charm! *Okay, scrub that, I have got the app you've been trying to use to...

    Using vlans and ubound dns with vpn bound

    You've not really given anyone very mush to go on here! What are you explicitly trying to do? What have you done so far to meet the needs you've identified? How can you verify that what you have done is working - and is not posing any additional/unforeseen security risks?

    Diversion Best way to remove Diversion

    I could probably set up PiHole on a mini-server in my sleep! I've been following the thread on these forums about running PiHole on the router, and it definitely seems to be much more faff. Maybe in the next incarnation of my home network, if that happens to on the Banana Pi R4 pro - or...

    Chromecast on different subnet...

    Even the oldest, cheapest versions of the Chromecast have always used DHCP. You can't manually change it on the device, but you can set it on the router (LAN>DHCP Server) or it'll just find select a suitable address for itself within the routers DHCP pool. The really early ones can be a bit of...

    Recurrent internet drops at 10:00

    If you are in the UK with BT or possibly just on the OpenReach infrastructure, then it's probably an ISP issue, as there are similar reports popping up on the BT consumer forums - it does seem to be very localised though!

    How to unbind a device from a specific node

    In the WebUI, you may see devices connected to the wrong node, and they'll be highlighted as such. If they are not connected to anything, they'll appear at the bottom of their nodes client list, and although they are greyed out you can still click on the link symbol to disconnect them! The App...

    How to unbind a device from a specific node

    In the WebUI, under general, select AI Mesh. If you then click on the node the device is attached to, you'll see its detail in the right-hand column. Click on the white "link" icon next to the device and you'll be able to unbind it! *Binding a device to a node won't exclude it from connecting...

    Asus RT-AX88U wireless radio problem

    I think what you've shown, is that your router is working "within spec". From what you've posted I would assume there are retail units below the apartments. As for the "Core-G" network, it may be that they have multiple Access points, including on the outside of the building facing your...

    Asus RT-AX88U wireless radio problem

    If your Wi-Fi has worked at the distance your car is parked in the past, then I think you've been lucky, and you need to lower your expectations a little. So I wouldn't be buying a third router to fix something that isn't really broken. I'd probably be spending time and effort to get the...

    Asus RT-AX88U wireless radio problem

    With home routers if the Wi-Fi itself is not well, then it stops all together. The problem in apartments can often be too many competing Wi-Fi Access points, resulting devices struggling the further you get away from your own router. I'd try running an app such as "Net Analyser" on your phone...

    SFP ONT Stick - BE88U - IPTV

    Umm, ONTs and (G)PONs are not the same thing! Where you have a (G)PON, your signal has already been filtered from that of anyone else sharing the same physical fibre. With an ONT, it filters out your signal from any others that may be on the cable. So an ONT will need to be registered with...

    ASUS tuf ax 5400 - Smartphone connection via USB 3 fails with some 5g models

    You might want to make sure that in developer mode on the phone. Tethering mode default is set to file transfer, and toggle on/off USB tethering acceleration.

    Poll - what is the oldest level of 2.4Ghz Wifi currently in use

    I have a solitary Reolink camera mounted on the garage, which will occasionally revert to 802.11g. It only records when there's movement, uploads to network share, and switches back to 802.11n all on its own - so no real problem. Looking at its signal strength reporting, it sees 8 other...

    Solved Cannot add network printer using ZenWiFi BD4

    The problem with the DJST-555 here, was noticeable with my previous RT-AC86U router, and I recreated it on the GT-AX6000. With the other problems people were having with HP printers of that era, I would put money on it being more of a printer issue than a router one. I don't know if getting a...
