    Asus XT9 vs XT12

    Thanks for the info! I'm also thinking, as I will need to be using wireless backhaul, a pair of XT12s (I've seen a nice deal) would enable me to dedicate the UNII-4 part of the 5GHz just for the backhaul. But what happens if I want to add my existing RT-AX88U as a second node (we have a...

    Asus XT9 vs XT12

    By performance, do you also mean similar wifi range? I have the RT-AX88U (non-Pro) as the main router but I would need just a bit more range. So I was thinking about getting the XT12, but I'm only going by assumptions based on its antenna setup. The other bonus with the XT12 would be a...

    Firewall Logged packets causes high usage/ping

    BTW, what do you think, would it compromise the RT-AC86U's performance, if the loop interval was reduced from 5 to, say, 2 seconds (in order to initiate WOL quicker)? Would it be worth it just to shave off a few seconds? With its 1.8GHz dual core, I would assume the router would handle it with ease.

    Firewall Logged packets causes high usage/ping

    Argh, I had already tried substituting ACCEPT with both WOL and FORWARD a few hours ago, but something must have gone wrong because testing failed. Main thing is though that now it works! This is an awesome solution: no need for static arps, opened 9 UDP ports or VPN tunnels, when all I want is...

    Firewall Logged packets causes high usage/ping

    Bump. Does Merlin's script need to be modified somehow, when using it in combination with the firewall-start file described above? I've got Merlin's script working nicely but it results in an unnecessary amount of logging, as I only need to monitor two specific ports a couple of times a day...

    RT-AC66U + LAN power strip problem (PLEASE help!)

    Nevermind, I "solved" it: the Energenie is most obviously broken as now I can't access it even via the Bewan modem (or modem/router). Guess I'll have to buy a new one.

    RT-AC66U + LAN power strip problem (PLEASE help!)

    I'm having strange issues with my RT-AC66U and Energenie LAN-controlled power strip. The connection is wired. When connected straight to my modem (Bewan C5200), Energenie works perfectly, i.e. ping is OK, on/off commands are sent promptly etc. BUT once connected to the Asus, the LAN connection...

    Very slow USB transfer speeds

    Update: I exchanged the router for a new one and the transfer speeds are now up there where they should be. :)

    Very slow USB transfer speeds

    Unplugged all other network cables (including WAN), rebooted and tried file transfer: stable connection but only ~975KB/s as expected. Tried wired connection with two different PC's with two different cables and two different operation systems. "Enable Jumbo Frame" is at the default "No"...

    Very slow USB transfer speeds

    Here's some of the things I've found out: - All cables are working (Ethernet cable is Cat6) - Anti-virus or firewall interference is ruled out - Disabling Qos or IPV6 from Windows doesn't make a difference - Tried both USB ports - Tried disabling DLNA server, UPnP, made sure miniDLNA scan is...

    Very slow USB transfer speeds

    I'm getting awful transfer speeds with a 2 TB USB drive attached as a NAS. FTP or Samba, the speed maxes out at 1 MB/s. Same thing wired or wireless, using Windows 7 or 8. The drive is formatted in EXT3 and integrity checked with Gparted. No luck switching between firmwares (including the...
