    Smart Connect Rules? RT-AX86U

    Do you notice this when you come home? If so, what’s happening is the phone sees the 2.4ghz band first since it has further range and connects to it. We have iPhones in our house and they pretty quickly hop over to the 5GHz band once we get inside. Occasionally it may take them a minute or 2 to...

    AiMesh vs Access Point ?

    I tried both the Aimesh and AP route. In terms of roaming I couldn’t tell a difference between the 2 (mind you my router and AP both support 802.11k/v). I would get some weird slowdowns with Aimesh (less than 1Mb down) occasionally that I never got when running an AP setup. My best guess was...

    Hidden 802.11a Network

    I have my own modem and router so it’s not that. I think I’ve narrowed it down to either my Xbox or my TV (thanks Colin). I at least feel better knowing where it’s coming from now. Thanks all!

    Hidden 802.11a Network

    I do have an Xbox in the room that is currently on standby so this is a great suggestion. I’ll try it and let you know!

    Hidden 802.11a Network

    I'm kind of stumped by this and I was wondering if anybody has any ideas. When I use WinFi a hidden network will pop up from time to time with a very high signal strength. It seems to come and go at random and I can't for the life of me figure out what it belongs to. Given the strength and the...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.0 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Are you gaming on a PC or a console? If a console it's pretty easy. Just assign your console an IP and add the following rule (change local IP to your console's IP).

    Updated to 384.19 and cannot login

    I had the same issue. Waited about 15 minutes and I could log in. Everything else seems to work fine so not too worried about it.

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.0 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Just installed on an AX88U and everything seems to be working as intended. Thanks Dave!

    Setting up two Asus routers to extend wifi

    I too went back and forth between mesh and AP (wired). I went the AP route. I used same SSID, smart connect, and DIFFERENT channels for the router and AP. Works great for me.

    Using 5GHz only

    Channel 108 is a DFS channel. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the power output is limited on DFS channels. Have you tried a non DFS channel?

    2.4ghz ax88u

    I see it posted quite often about people not being happy with smart connect. It has always worked exactly as I want it to with default settings. I understand there’s people who want 100% control and I get why they’d prefer no smart connect but overall I don’t know why it gets such a bad rap. I...

    AP/AiMesh Roaming RT-AX58U

    I won't be home for a week to test on my own AP but it looks like a recent firmware update added 802.11k to the AX58U. Below is from my parents who have an AX58U running the latest stock firmware. Edit: For anyone that is curious, the latest Merlin (384.18) does not have 802.11k on the AX58U.

    [Release] FreshJR Adaptive QOS (Improvements / Custom Rules / and Inner workings)

    Something’s not right there. If I run a Speedtest across multiple sites (dslreports, speedtest.net, fast.com, etc.) I always end up with results in the same ballpark. I’d manually check a few different sites with QOS off and see what you get. I’d imagine it’s going to be in the 450 range.

    [Release] FreshJR Adaptive QOS (Improvements / Custom Rules / and Inner workings)

    As far as I know the automatic bandwidth setting doesn’t work. Set your up and down speeds manually. For one IP use /32. If your game console is 192.168.50.5 input 192.168.50.5/32 for the gaming rule.

    Thanks Merlin that makes me feel better.

    QOS Classification Pie Data Blank

    Thanks for moving, I intended to post in this forum but realized after the fact I did not. I uninstalled FreshJR, restarted QOS, and restarted the router. Same thing. Very weird. It does seem to categorize the connections though so if QOS is actually working correctly I don't really care about...

    QOS Classification Pie Data Blank

    Anyone else have this problem? I'm setting up an AX58U for my parents and the upload download data is blank in QOS. I have an AX88U at my house and everything works as intended with FreshJR. I've factory reset the router, uninstalled and reinstalled FreshJR multiple times and I'm at a loss...

    AX58 - Merlin First-timer

    You can schedule a weekly reboot to take place in the middle of the night when everyone’s asleep if you need to go that route, but I’d just watch it and see if it reoccurs for now.

    AX58 - Merlin First-timer

    My AX58U is setup as an AP and an AX88U is my main router and I’ve never had a need to have a scheduled reboot. I’d reboot and see if it fixes it. If it does just see how long it runs without issue. If the problem reoccurs again and is fixed by a reboot, scheduling a weekly reboot wouldn’t be a...

    AX58 - Merlin First-timer

    Same issue even after a router reboot?
