    Amatuer question

    Thiggins et al., I wanted to ensure the connections that are hardwired are free of any interference from the router. I am running a linksys EA9500 which, from what I have seen, is fairly locked down. I am limited to only a small array of options and hate it. Maybe a better question would be...

    Amatuer question

    Hi, I hope you are all well. I am considering doing some testing on my network as my performance is very sub-par. I wanted to setup a configuration that looks like the following to see if it will overcome some of the issues I am seeing: modem ---> 1 gig switch unmanaged ---> router I am not...

    Ethtool reporting eth0 as 10 /Mbps and my speeds reflect that

    Hi, The interface says gigabit, but the weird thing is all my speedtests are way below what I should be getting.

    Wireless Password Re-Setup Issue

    Hi, I just reinstalled and setup from scratch the latest version of merlin. I erased the nvram and went through all the proper procedures. However, during setup, I used a generic password so my clients would not connect until I was through. Now that things are fully setup, I went to change the...

    Fios wan overhead, a followup

    I believe, based on the ITU G.984.4 : Gigabit-capable passive optical networks (G-PON): ONT management and control interface specification, that FIOS is using IPOE. http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-G.984.4-200802-I/en https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPoE Especially, as per MOCA 2.0 and using...

    Rehijack FiOS hijack

    FiOS is hijacking a lot of different websites and pointing them to their cache. For example: chrome.exe 7732 TCP desktop-u3eg2jh 1783 174.32.199.65.philadelphia.google-ggc.verizon.com Is there a way to "rehijack" the sites back using dnsmasq or something? Thanks, Johnathon

    Editing nvram variables

    Hi, I was wondering about editing nvram variables. I know it's possible to do with entware and busybox. If we were going to make changes where would they be placed? Or is that not possible at this time? Thanks, J
