    RT-AX88U Pro with 160Mhz - very bad experience

    Actually I'm not sure if in Canada you can confortably use 160. My read in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5_GHz_(802.11a/h/n/ac/ax/be) tells me you only have 36-64 as a contiguos space to use. And higher channels like U-NIIC can't give you 160 since you're "missing" 120-128...

    Weird Wake on LAN problem with GT-AXE16000

    Actually I may have an idea. I can't find Asus' default arp timeout. But that may explain why it works for you for a while than it stops working. Every router will forget eventually ip/arp association. You can see the table with arp -a by ssh'ing to the router. If your application sends an ip...

    Weird Wake on LAN problem with GT-AXE16000

    I don't have any explanation.

    Question about multiple 5Ghz networks . Asus GT-AXE16000

    Technology doesn't that. There's little to no chance that will ever be an option. As @ugandy is saying, use the same SSID for all radios and let Smart Connect do the balancing. That actually work really well for me, it balances the clients nearly perfect. Including the 6GHz ones. With default...

    Weird Wake on LAN problem with GT-AXE16000

    There are 2 types of magic packet: - ip. Where network has to know ip/mac association so packet will reach the right device. This type of traffic can be VPN'ed - mac. This way you just send a layer2 packet to a certain mac address and that machine will wake up. This type of traffic cannot be...

    Weird Wake on LAN problem with GT-AXE16000

    Can I ask why are you sending an IP WOL packet? MAC magic packet is as accurate and much simple to use, as you don't need to keep an ARP entry in place. MAC magic packet will not work over VPN, but Asus has this mechanism in UI, so you can vpn to connect to the router (or just open WEB access...

    AXE-11000 vs. AX-86 Pro for dual LAN and redundancy

    As far as I'm aware there's only one backhaul link possible. It have to be wired to node's WAN link. But look, you're in the best position one can get into! You choose the one link that gives you most speed (like wired if that works at 10G or fiber if that can do 10G) and you're a hot swap away...

    Bought a European AX86U Pro Not UK Model

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5_GHz_(802.11a/h/n/ac/ax) shows the "difference" between UK and EU. There was a small update lately by UK regulator, but it is minimal and realistically speaking there's no difference. However, regulation may continue to diverge and if U-NII-3...

    Solved GT-AXE16000 port forwarding for Synology NAS

    Can't make too much sense of your screen capture. Zooming it in makes is a mess. I'm using a GT-AXE16000 with latest official firmware and I have absolutely no problems with port forwarding to Synology. First question is super simple: why do you bother to use Synology's router configuration...

    Upgraded my WiFi card, Router, NAS connection and still going slow (<1gbps) (ax5400 wifi6 -> axe7800 wifi 6e)

    Out of curiosity what Synology NAS do you have and what NIC you bought for it? (I'm still pissed off Synology jumped so late on 2.5 and 10G wagon and they kept a latest high end model bar, sometimes artificial - if they have a port for a cache SSD but they don't allow the same port to be used...

    Battery drain on my Pixel 6 only when connected to RT-AX55 router

    dhdpcie_host_wake are always fun to troubleshoot in Android. It is modem related, but it's another beast to find who and why wakes up the modem. Let's assume you don't have any strange USB or Bluetooth device connected to your phone. Any new applications that are in love in finding the...

    RT-AX88U poor network performance/speed

    "400mbps on wifi for download" may not be bad at all! An AC client will be more than happy with it. Although in excellent conditions you may be able to achieve some 650-700mbps. Depends on tons of factors, one of the most important being the clients. You have an AX router, but from what client...

    Release ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AXE16000 Firmware version 3.0.04.388_24329 12-18-2023

    One week later and my unit it's still on 160MHz on second 5GHz radio. First radio had no problems before to stay on 160. Second though was dropping to 80 several hours after a reload. Now, one week later...not an important aspect for me, but worth highlighting it. It was stable also with the...

    ASUS GT-AXE16000 losing connection after changing settings

    Changing anything on DHCP will "disconnect" everything depending on DHCP. For those to get the new setting. It would be really odd otherwise, some clients would have old settings, some new. That's one of those operations. Another is changing mostly everything on wifi. That will not affect wired...

    Release Version ASUS GT-AXE16000 Firmware 3.0.0.4.388.23012 (2023/04/19)

    You can always flash Asus WRT on top of Merlin and do a factory reset to make sure no settings leak in between. Of course Asus won't support Merlin so warranty is void on that ground. So no configuration troubleshooting from Asus while running Merlin. But if you have a hardware problems, they...

    WOL stops working after 15 min. ARP entries cleared randomly.

    Now I understand what you are using. It's too much of carrier's mood for my taste. I have never tried Asus' app. VPN back "home" is my choice. I have control to the level I'm looking for.

    WOL stops working after 15 min. ARP entries cleared randomly.

    WOL is a UDP broadcast packet. No router and no switch should know where that mac address is. It should be seen by all network adapters in the network but only the one with MAC address in the payload will actually bother to come online. Actually is normal for a network to forget a mac address...

    Port Forwarding and IPv6

    That is unfortunately often the case with ipv6. Too many options, written in law/rfc for several random reasons, and it's always a mess :(

    Port Forwarding and IPv6

    It will help if you can share ipv6 configuration you have on your router. I take it you don't get any IPv4 address on your LAN. But you do get IPv6 address on WAN. Then one way or another your hosts are getting an IPv6 address. And that "one way or another" is the key. Ideally provider does...
