    ASUS RT-AX86U Network Share Problem

    This worked! https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/filecab/accessing-a-third-party-nas-with-smb-in-windows-11-24h2-may-fail/4154300 I first tried Set-SmbClientConfiguration -RequireSecuritySignature $false -Force in powershell, but, without a reboot, that didn't work, so I guess that didn't...

    I am on Win 11 24H2, but so is the laptop that can connect. Network and Sharing Center says I'm on a private network.

    ASUS RT-AX86U Network Share Problem

Enable sharing is on, device name is set, I have a workgroup name set that I also set on the laptop, protocol is SMBv2, simple sharing yes, force as...

    RT-AX88U maxing out a core and regularly showing 60+ MB/s upload

    Same issue with my RT-AC86U. Someone in another forum pointed me to this thread last week. I turned off AiCloud at that point and things were better. Turned it back on today and after a bit, I noticed the huge upload. Turned it off and rebooted and I'm good again. I guess I'll wait to turn...

    AiMesh Node Slow

    I was already using WPA2-Personal and I did factory reset the AC68U after loading the Asus stock firmware.

    AiMesh Node Slow

    I don't recall seeing that, but it's certainly possible. Here's some more data. I noticed that the Samsung GS23 was connecting as 2.4GHz so I disabled 2.4 on the mesh node. The phone doesn't seem to want to connect to the mesh node then, but if I bind it to the mesh node, it does connect at...

    AiMesh Node Slow

    Ok, mesh node is on latest Asus firmware now. In AiMesh->System settings, I turned off Ethernet Backhaul Mode. Under network, it says uplink type is Ethernet 1Gbps. Under management, backhaul connection priority says auto now. Same 50M speed on the Samsung Galaxy S23 phone even when I'm next...

    AiMesh Node Slow

    I have an Asus RT-AX86U as my main router and an ASUS RT-AC68U as my mesh node. Both running latest Merlin. I'm connected via Ethernet and have Ethernet backhaul mode on. It looks like I max out at about 50M/50M when connected to the RT-AC68U. I get up to my full 300M/300M when connected to...

    New RT-AX68U - Can't Get AiMesh Working

    LAN to WAN (WAN on the AiMesh node) worked. I didn't have to reset node (not sure what you meant by that anyhow). SSID looks like after still. Don't know why wireless didn't work. Never had a problem with that previously. Doesn't matter, it's working. Thanks!

    New RT-AX68U - Can't Get AiMesh Working

    WPS actually was on, I did a reset on the WPS page and tried again and it failed. Also connected an Ethernet cable LAN to LAN (is that right?) and that failed. After it fails, if I go to the WPS page, I see this Fail due to WPS time out! Any other ideas?

    New RT-AX68U - Can't Get AiMesh Working

    I've got a new RT-AX86U and I can't get AiMesh working. I've got 2 spare RT-AC68Us and 1 was previously used as an AiMesh node for the other. All devices are running Merlin 386.3.2. The 2 routers are positioned right next to each other. I've reset the AC68Us numerous times, both using the...

    Improve House Wifi / Keep Existing Router?

    Actually, I had already seen the deal posted and I have changed my mind. I've got an RT-AX86U waiting for me at BestBuy. Also, the paypal credit is $25, not $50 and it's iffy whether it will stick after best buy issues the price match, but I'll go for it anyhow.

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.4 beta is now available

    Not that it helps you, but I'm having no such issue on my AX68U.

    Improve House Wifi / Keep Existing Router?

    Yes, and that's why I'm feeling I made the right choice going with the AX68U over the AX86U and saving $100 in the process.
