    Ideas on replacing firmware in tplink routers

    I have had at least three tplink routers, including currently, and they all run great. They have also been behind a firewalling router (yes, I use double and triple NAT), and have NEVER seen them try to dial home, nor seen a third party attempt backdoor access.

    Missing Kernel Modules moving from AX88U to AX86 Pro

    ??? so the consumer/end-user needs to dig into the firmware for devices made over the last 24 years (and forward) before purchasing?

    Asus RT-AX88U-Pro Login page hangs in Windows 10

    What I am trying to figure out is why this happens in Windows, but not Linux. When it hangs in Windows, I can immediately reboot into Linux and the GUI responds fine. I reboot into Windows, and the GUI still hangs until I issue those commands.

    Asus RT-AX88U-Pro Login page hangs in Windows 10

    Strange thing started happening a while ago, so I can't easily pinpoint the cause. Occasionally- randomly - when I attempt to login to the router homepage in Windows 10, using Brave, Chrome, Firefox, or Edge, the page hangs - sometimes not rendering at all, sometimes partially. If I reboot...

    Disappointed with Merlin

    No info on router model, Merlin version, no description on wifi config. Why bother posting?

    Guest and IoT Network Configuration

    I keep all my home, personal, and IoT devices on the same network so that they can communicate to each other as needed. The "guest network" is just for guests. To isolate any device from accessing the internet and dialing home, you have a couple VERY EASY options to add to your firewall-start...

    Asus AX88u slow on 2.4ghz wifi on certain devices

    There is a thread on slow 2.4 wifi being possibly related to proximity to certain UPSs.

    Asus AiMesh vs eero

    eeros are dataminers. If you don't mind being the product, and hate personal privacy, go for it.

    Router not responding to CLI or AMTM reboot command

    I have noticed a strange behavior with two different ASUS routers, both running current (3004.388.7) Merlin firmware on an RT-AX86U_Pro and an RT-AX88U_Pro. After some length of uptime (at least more than 5 days), the routers do not respond to a "service reboot", AMTM rr, or even the gui reboot...

    Any way to disable/prevent start of a script without uninstalling it ?

    Just rename the script, ie add ".org" to the end.

    Model with the strongest wifi signal?

    Gotcha. But even so, nothing changed regarding the bandwidth on either frequency. Sounds to me like "I was happy with my v4 1.6 liter automobile engine, but once I upgraded to a v12 Viper the highway is now way too slow."

    Model with the strongest wifi signal?

    Exactly. But OP seems to be implying that all other things being considered, when 2.4 worked for building penetration and throughput, now all of a sudden the throughput isn't enough?

    Model with the strongest wifi signal?

    Why is the 2.4 too slow now, when it wasn't before?
