    Disable UPNP ?

    I read an article that I should disable upnp and ran test on https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 to make sure my router can not be probe. Nonetheless, the result is my router can not be probe even with upnp still on. Should I disable it anyway? My router is the GT-AC2900 thanks.

    D-Link DIR-882 AC2600 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Router Reviewed

    Sold my 882 and here are my findings of this router : 1) Both range and connectivity are better than my R7000 and WRT1900AC v2 2) Stock firmware not perfect but enough. 3) DDWRT is not stable at all, random reboot. If you are presently using stock firmware with wireless N only router or low...

    The Dir-882 with latest stock 1.11 firmware don't crash the router while using plex so it is a DDWRT bug, too bad the stock firmware don't have some of the settings that I required.

    DDWRT run stable but too bad when I fast forward a movie via my plex server, it will crash the router and cause it to reboot. Back to my WRT1900AC with Lede firmware, no problem. Have to find out the cause of it.

    Thanks, I was lucky to pick up an used DIR-882 for cheap this past Saturday. Tested it against my R7000 and WRT1900AC, the simple way since I have a blind spot for 5G at a corner of my house. Tested it with my HTC-M8 cellphone. WRT1900AC v.2 with Openwrt (lede) firmware, can connect to 5G but...
