    Does every config change prompt a reboot/reconnect?

    While we're on the subject, I find it fairly maddening that the UI won't queue compatible changes and apply them all at once. Like, for one very easy example, if you want to change a radio's settings on both the general and professional pages you've got to take the damn radio down twice to do it.

    Pro Router And 160 MHZ

    Agreed, but it does indicate "fit for /trial/ use."

    I need some advise and help figure out which to pick or order.

    I'd like to augment my prior post with the personal opinion that if the GT had antennas as svelte as those of the RT, the GT would be the much better-looking of the two. As it is, one looks like some kind of space alien and the other looks likes like some kind of space ship (or possibly a...

    I need some advise and help figure out which to pick or order.

    Well, I believe you'll find the RT version of the hardware actually demands /more/ shelf space than the GT version does, once you've got antennas and wiring attached...

    Where to start with automatic scripting for AsusWRT-Merlin

    Yeah, well, as agreeable as that argument is for larger projects, we're talking mere shell scripts here. A horse of a different color, hell, breed, in my book. All-in, this topic (an expressed desire to learn scripting by inspecting scripts, as I recall) reminds me of the time I happened upon...

    Where to start with automatic scripting for AsusWRT-Merlin

    The major hurdle encountered when studying scripts is when they define everything as a function even if the function is called only once. What a freaking nightmare!

    Web proxy running locally on ASUS Router

    Yeah, as well-liked as an employee may otherwise be, bypassing company security measures on a company computer (even at home and for personal use) may well earn a pink slip. Not worth it.

    [AX86U Pro] WIFI not working well after updating from stock to Merlin

    It may be "fixed" now but you made so many changes at once you'll never be sure of the culprit.

    3 story house approx 5K sq ft with limited ethernet wiring

    If (most likely so?) the contents of that box are passive, I wouldn't worry about it, and save the money as it's already fiber into the basement. The other leads going through the wall were pre-extsting and unrelated, right?

    Solved AiMesh Node client connection issue

    When a client submits a DHCP request it should include its hostname (as well an address if it's used it before, which if available, it'll get - hence "same one over several routers"), which then gets registered in the router so the client can be "found" by name on the network using the router...

    WiFi 7 has been certified.

    It's been a good 30 years, but the presentation points were all (mouse included) innovations to which MS lay sole claim. No big deal to me now, just a triggered memory...

    WiFi 7 has been certified.

    I agree, "to their OS", but that wasn't the extent of the claim.

    3 story house approx 5K sq ft with limited ethernet wiring

    Oh, no, doesn't sound reasonable. If that's the cable box pictured (earlier) above, you'll have another for the fiber. The fiber installers won't (shouldn't!) even touch, let alone use for any purpose, any of the cable stuff.

    WiFi 7 has been certified.

    Haha! So what they're /really/ saying is they've now included vendor-supplied firmware/drivers for wifi7 hardware. Gotta hand it to MS, I guess, saw an MS timeline once where it was claimed they'd "introduced" the "mouse" (a good 15 years after a real 3-button mouse was being used...).

    Need a multi-AP system that (primarily) works

    Could've been something as simple as a DHCP lease renewal that just got out of sync. I'd suspect the phone, first.

    3 story house approx 5K sq ft with limited ethernet wiring

    All I can go by is Indiana Metronet. Outdoor flying fiber (though I understand they lately prefer to knife in from the pole to the structure) to a passive junction box on the house similar to what's pictured above including the (previous?) owner-installed-looking stuff. From that junction box...

    GT-AX6000 is EOL?

    I've quite happily got one in use. Paid $230 last summer. Especially when they were available "pre-production" for ~$100, though even now @ $160 (shipped, here at least), the GL-Inet Flint 2 is a different architecture model equivalently "spec'd", though it has like 8 GB internal storage vs...

    GT-AX6000: USB Drive size limitation?

    Would have to check. Am solely routing / wifi with it. If you're getting 20's MB/s it's about (only) fair for USB2.

    3 story house approx 5K sq ft with limited ethernet wiring

    Looks like fiber coming up from the conduit (buried / knifed-in) and disappears into the junction box from which nothing visibly exits (likely fed through the wall in a more-protected manner). Whatever the black and blue wires are, they're draped over the meter base and disappear through the...
