    RT-AC5300 showing devices as wired when wireless on clients list

    You know I didn't. I'm still trying to figure that out. However I have found that at least with the current firmware. Items that are newly added to the network or switch bands seem to be plugged into the wired section of The client list and then slowly filter out down into their proper...

    Using Merlin router to access public Wi-Fi and create a private Wi-Fi in an RV

    Yeah I'm not against using my phone but the reason I bought an RV is we lost our house because of my disability and so I can't say that I have oodles of phone data available. So thank you all for your great input and your help with this because I do think stopping occasionally in a town too...

    Using Merlin router to access public Wi-Fi and create a private Wi-Fi in an RV

    Okay all you geniuses. It's looking like I may need to use an RV as a place to live. And I was wondering if there was a way to set up my ASUS router to access a public Wi-Fi but still create a private Wi-Fi network that's routed. I currently still have a home that I could even VPN into if that...

    Dual VPN, client and server on same router

    These are great questions I guess it is something like a cable router (has wifi and 4 ports on the back) (see Picture) I turn off the wifi and usually set the firewall as low as it will go to avoid problems So essentially I have two asus routers connected to this xfinity router by their wan...

    Dual VPN, client and server on same router

    Sorry about the lack of specificity I guess I see the Client VPN as somthing other than open VPN but it is using that protocol.
