    Only have certain MAC addresses use VPN?

    Increase Tx Power in Latest Firmwares?

    Hi all, I need about 100mw to get decent speeds in the far corner of my house on the 5Ghz band. With the new firmware, Asus has changed the power to a sliding scale of 1-100%. I have found 100% to be about 80mW here in Canada... How can I get back the 100mW I need and could set before?

    Asuswrt-Merlin 376.45 is out

    I had to move back to Fork's .43 build as I need the ability to increase the Tx power beyond 80Mw. I have seen many folks with similiar comments. I am no programmer, but is there any way to revise that TX slider to go up to 200%, for those of us needing more mW? Or is that a 'closed' bit of...

    Wifi problems in AP Mode

    Uhhhh...Read the post above yours... I had to enable multicast on the wifi settings, since I have IPTV (eg Verizon's FIOs, Telus's Optik). Any IPTV multicast seemed to grind the router to a halt. I'd suggest setting multicast to 54MBps and then playing around with the rate, and that solved my...
