I was hoping increased channels & freq bands would help my cause. Thanx for all the feedback guys.. Will...

    Upgrading from RT-AC68U to newer Router Wifi 6, 6E or wait for 7?

    I don't have the option of relocating the router due to my setup, so looking for other ways to improve it. As you suggested just moving to a AX86 is probably all I need for now, since it has more nvram & faster speeds so don't get streaming freeze up etc. I was hoping for increased channels /...

    Upgrading from RT-AC68U to newer Router Wifi 6, 6E or wait for 7?

    I live in a congested wifi zone with (currently around 36 other signals detected) others I am competing for frequency range with. What are my best options? I know my device is now getting long in the tooth. I normally use 3 or 4 vpn channels so having to cut back to 2 doesn't work for me. I...

    vpnmgr vpnmgr - Manage and update VPN Client configurations for NordVPN and PIA

    I like having the option to pick city & country for multiple clients. I can't do this with VPN Director. All that does is assign a device to a specific client. This is what attracted me to using the vpnmgr in addition to the VPN Director. I had it working before my update to the latest...

    vpnmgr vpnmgr - Manage and update VPN Client configurations for NordVPN and PIA

    Clearing cache didn't seem to do anything. I am not sure what else I can do. The code seems to be corrupted in router or missing? I will try a factory reset & flash again to see if I can change this. When I log into the vpnmgr console in router I can see the 4 instances I have configured for...
