    well, they are introducing ability to send feedback via gmail, or at least I remember reading it somewhere. When it fail, in addition to the email address to mail to, it also provides a log of the hardware, not that difficult to copy paste. And it's not that difficult to save the system log and...

    Some MKV files not seen by drive via router media server - AC68R

    I will check the name of the file that's missing. change to something simple to test, say test123. sometimes the download file with long name might have caused issue. and if it doesn't help, I will consider convert the mkv file into mp4 and test.

    RT-AC68U keeps "restarting" since updating to newest merlin firmware

    peronally, i dont have issue with merlin's firmware on my 68u, so I think you should get RMA as it's most likely an hardware issue. but ya you def wanna try power cycle and load the stock firmware as Asus might ask you to provide logs and have further step on troubleshooting before RMA.

    RT-AC68U keeps "restarting" since updating to newest merlin firmware

    try power cycle by powering off for 30 sec, and perform nvram reset with wps after the power cycle. I would also try to load stock firmware to see if samething happening. sometimes it will be easier to identify issue that way. if samething happening, could be hardware failure and might need to...

    ASUS AC86U QoS on 2 SSIDs

    the router I am using is ac3100, even with stock you have ability to set the bandwidth limit. I would assume it's also possible to do with 86u. But you can also set higher priority to know device and leave new connected have default priority and just use advance qos. I think there is also...

    VPN Client in Android - how to route all traffic via VPN server?

    which VPN server did you set up? OpenVPN? PPTP? or IPSEC? I got lazy and just setup IPSEC for now, it redirect traffic as one would expect. there should be an option to redirect internet traffic in advance setup for OpenVPN, maybe for PPTP as well. currently on stock firmware, but should not...
