    Asus XT8 or Asus ET8?

    Wi-Fi 6E is a somewhat dead end branch of evolution. There are still few clients operating in the 6 GHz band, and soon, probably in 1-2 years, it will be possible to buy Wi-Fi 7 routers. An intermediate option is four-band routers or Mesh systems with Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E, for example Netgear...

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.46061 (2022/01/14)

    I have these two XT8 since April of this year. I, too, 1-2-3 or 4 days a week work from home, on vpn. There were different firmware for this router, but there was never a problem with vpn to communicate with the corporate network. Perhaps you need to configure the router settings correctly, or...

    Release Asus ZenWiFi XT8 - New Firmware: 3.0.0.4.386_45934

    Question 1: why my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Pro smartphone, in which the AX standard is not implemented, with such settings freely connects to the Wi-Fi AX network? Question 2: why my smartphone, if it is connected to 5 GHz AX, connects only to the node, but not to the main router, even if I am...

    Trying to make InstantGuard work!

    The guide says: «Your router connects to Internet through another router (here we called "the Root AP"). The Root AP assigned IP address to your router. In such case, you have to set up Port Forwarding, NAT Server, or Virtual Server on the Root AP to make Instant Guard VPN available for private...

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC3-2 public beta

    Most likely the address 10.9.112.78 is a "gray" address, not a public one. Please contact your ISP to provide you with a "white" external public address. It's not 100%, but I think so ... I had a similar problem (external ip address started with "10.") and had to buy an external public address...

    Router DNS Settings

    From a previous post: Correct me if I'm wrong here ... If "DNS Privacy Protocol" is specified as "DoT", then the router does not look at "DNS Server1" and "DNS Server2", but takes addresses Dot-servers only from table "DNS-over-TLS Server List". This is right? Question: in what order does...

    Trying to understand modern Mesh routers and decide if I should buy one

    For various reasons, I do not recommend purchasing TP-Link Deco. It is better to look in the direction of ASUS ZenWifi XT8 or ET8, - a router and one node.

    XT8 Firmware Upgrade Best Practices

    Do the reset only like this: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/xt8-hard-factory-reset.67850/#post-681447 This is the most correct way for an XT8 AiMesh. P.S. I upgraded the router XT8 and node XT8 from 45898 to 45934 without resets - everything I need works normally...
