    RT-AX88U "ISP's DHCP does not function properly" but manual udhcpc call works

    Sorry if this is not directly helpful but for what it's worth I think the WAN DHCP lease handling is broken. I found out on my RT-AX86u that if I unplug the WAN cable and put it back in there is nothing that forces udhcpc to release/renew. So I wrote my own script to monitor eth0 and do the same...

    Asuswrt merlin - AX88

    Seems like the Asus AX offering is a little beefier than the best routers that support OpenWrt at the moment given: https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_available_16128_ax-wifi The Belkin RT3200 isn't as powerful as the AX86/88, right?

    Asuswrt merlin - AX88

    Out of curiosity, what would be a good hardware setup to put OpenWrt on and include a wireless access point? Something like this for the PC part https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08MTN4GV7/?tag=smallncom-21 perhaps? Alternatively, could the Asus router direct the flow to PC for handling by PC? Or...

    Asuswrt merlin - AX88

    And it's all or nothing? You can't have it enabled for just one type of flow or for one interface or something like that? Seems a pity because applying CAKE for upload in cases like this seems like it might be desirable. From searching online I see some dedicated hardware for that.

    Asuswrt merlin - AX88

    Ah dash. Seems like that would need specialist hardware. Btw what's the reason hardware acceleration needs to be disabled for CAKE? This plan for doing it on the router is doomed then. Pity. So adaptive QOS with upload set to 40 and download unlimited may be preferable if it is really needed.

    It really makes that much difference? If so, my plan will not work, sorry.

    Router temperatures

    For use in your scripts. Just have the router push this out to a tannoy system:

    Asuswrt merlin - AX88

    CAKE could be applied on upload only by writing a custom QOS override script. If you just run CAKE from the GUI with download set to 0 (unlimited) does that kill your download bandwidth? If so I think you just need to have custom script only initiate cake on upload. See here for the recipe for...

    Fastest speed between 2x devices sharing 5Ghz

    That's exactly what I experienced. Two clients on same radio circa 30-35MB/sec. One client to router circa double that. Any settings to squeeze out more? I tried 160Mhz but one of my clients cannot see the WiFi then. I tried putting one on the 2.4Ghz radio but that didn't help.

    Router not getting internet back after WAN drop

    For those with this problem: I think this may be exactly what I am experiencing. @xlr, your router log shows this: 2021-05-07 06:15:09 WAN connection INTERNET_VOICE_TR069_R_UMTS1:IPv4 connected 2021-05-07 06:15:05 WAN connection INTERNET_VOICE_TR069_R_UMTS1:IPv4 disconnected And you get...

    Problem: udhcpc does not deconfig upon WAN cable disconnect

    RT-AX86u: eth0 down and back up -> loss of connectivity

    I just updated my post above. I tried physically disconnecting the WAN cable and the problem is that the Asus Router is VERY SLOW to detect this. As in, the cable must be disconnected for something like > 5 seconds before it will restart the wan. It seems like udhcpc will not deconfig upon cable...

    RT-AX86u: eth0 down and back up -> loss of connectivity

    I have it set in bridge mode. I am keen to try to get that to work properly if I can. I did some testing and it seems if I pull the WAN cable the Asus Router is very slow to detect change and restart the wan. It must be pulled for about > 5 seconds for the Asus Router to restart the wan. Should...

    RT-AX86u: eth0 down and back up -> loss of connectivity

    Why does eth0 going down and then back up again: Aug 10 04:38:14 kernel: eth0 (Int switch port: 3) (Logical Port: 3) (phyId: c) Link DOWN. Aug 10 04:38:17 kernel: eth0 (Int switch port: 3) (Logical Port: 3) (phyId: c) Link Up at 1000 mbps full duplex not result in a WAN restart / DHCP WAN IP...

    Mysterious loss of connectivity

    ... lost connection again tonight. eth0 goes down and back up. Asus Router loses connectivity. Syslog here: https://pastebin.com/JvwNHDa6 So what, I need to write a script to manually restart WAN if a ping fails?

    QoS-Cake Throttling USB?

    @dave14305 I finally had some time to implement a solution. I went for the standard practice of setting up an IFB for the interface in question for ingress. So I set up an IFB for 'tun11' and apply CAKE on that. It seems to work very well. It does not suffer from the samba share issue and also...

    Mysterious loss of connectivity

    Lost internet connectivity again last night pending manual intervention. Very much a shame that this happens because this is a problem with core functionality resulting in total failure. WAN status on router GUI showed 'disconnected', and that there was a WAN IP set, but lease showed 5 hours...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.2.5 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Thanks. I wonder how the samba traffic is dealt with in that case. Right now I just sacrifice the fluctuating aspect of the bandwidth and throttle to 30Mbit/s upload and download. This seems like a heavy price to pay for the Zoom and Teams sessions to work reliably, although 30MBit/s seems like...
