    RT-86U - vlanctl & ethctl usage puzzle

    Hi LeandroBR, I really appreciate your work on the VLAN of HND routers, it looks that in the last 2 years it hasn't much adevance here on the SNB forum related to VLANs. Can you please guide me into the steps and the vlanctl commands for changing the physical Port4 (eth1) so that it has the...

    VLANs, Trunk interface, tagged and untagged traffic RT-AX86U and RT-AX88U

    Can any of you guys help me with the 'vlanctl' command? On a AX86S (HND type) with Guest Wireless enabled I want to have eth1 (Port4) associated with Native VLAN=501. Basically I need to connect a PC on that port and have it restricted similar to Guest wireless clients. I see that after...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    Thank you man for your answers! I searched the forum, but I haven't found something close, I think I'll open a new question here on the forum, to be more specific and hopefully it will help more people in the near future. Yes, I realize that eth1 is advertised as tagged and in this case I...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    Now comes my next question. On the Asus AX86S, how do I set eth1 (physical Port4) to be on VLAN 501 and act as Guest client? Basically I want to have a device wired and connected to eth1 to have the same restrictions as Guest SSID clients. On SNBForums and Reedit everyone creates new VLANs, I...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    Hi guys, A short update is that I have discovered and then I realized it was also written on some forum posts that AX models with Guest wireless and "intranet access = disabled", are having all eth1-6 ports set automatically as Trunk ports. As a last week recap, on the Cisco switch I was...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    Yes, I can see that since with the HND line of products it seems that it became much more complex to configure VLANs or maybe I haven't figured it out as long as 'robocfg' is missing. Also it is scarry when you run "ifconfig" or "ip a" and it returns more than 20 interfaces. I am not convinced...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    Yes, I studied a few months ago pretty in detail the offering from the Omada line, though there were a few pros and cons ... anyway ... I haven't decided to make the move ... yet. I think you "opened my eyes" a few years ago in a similar thread that I read here on the forum - Thank you for the...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    I agree to disagree with you. Although I support the principle of buying new technology when needed and I was also very close on switching from Asus to Omada or Ubiquity, I haven't done it yet ... coming back to your suggestion to trash all devices that are > 10 years old, for the sake of the...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    Hi folks, I see here on SNBforums and on Reddit are dozens (or maybe close to hundred) posts about VLANs on Asus Merlin routers, though I haven't found a comprehensive guide/Howto. Anyone can recommend one for my case? My main is AX86S (router mode) and also a second node AC68U that is wired...

    RT-ATX86U Latest firmware messed up AiMesh tab

    I have 3.0.0.4.388_22525 on AX86S and I don't have that problem, although I had it with previous versions of firmware. Usually doing a Logoff or Ctrl + F5 would solve it.

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.22525

    From a couple of hours I have upgraded the AX86S to 388.22525 which is paired in AiMesh with AC68U (386.49703). Everything looks OK. The biggest improvement that I see is that now I have 5 clients connected to the AC68U node (as it should be normal based on distance) , while in the last 2...

    Is there a way to let Guest Wifi clients see each other but not Intranet devices?

    Nice one! Do you know if a similar nvram variable exists for the equivalent of "One way to guest" setting in YazFi? The ideea is that I had uninstalled YazFi because of the issue with IoT clients from the AiMesh node who would receive IP addresses from the main subnet. Basically what I'm...

    Release ASUS RT-AX86 Series(RT-AX86U/RT-AX86S) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21709

    Related to memory usage optimization, I have purchased recently a AX86S and just upgraded to 388.21709 from about 1 hour ago and I am amazed that right after restart it consumes > 90% of RAM with only 30-40 MB free. I cannot complain for the moment as I made many changes and rebooted almost...

    AiMesh - zero clients on the node after 1 day

    Update: Solved This morning I checked and I have 4 clients connected to the node. Changes that I made yesterday: Changed the firmware of the node from Merlin to Asus-stock and also disabled the forced ethernet backhaul. Also, previously I have modified Roaming Assitant to disconnect clients with...

    AiMesh - zero clients on the node after 1 day

    Yes, I'll do. Thank you! I'll reply back in a couple of days after reflashing the AC66U_B1 to stock firmware. Not using DFS channels. I had also unchecked the forced wired backhaul.

    AiMesh - zero clients on the node after 1 day

    Hi folks, Last week I had purchased an AX86S and set it as the main router, while the old AC66U_B1 set it as AiMesh node with Ethernet backhaul. The house is long shaped. Firmware is stock on both, 388.20566 on AX86S and 386.7.2 on AX66U_B1. All settings are the default ones, no tweaks...
