    Network Advice Wireless Camera System

    Lol, OK! Please explain. Can you please give me a quick overview of how I would set this up to accomplish? Would it be possible to do this with a phone?

    Network Advice Wireless Camera System

    I have a new Arlo Pro 3 camera system that stores video on a USB drive connected to it's hub. I would like to access this drive remotely - the Arlo Android app does allow for this with recommended port forwarding. Please give me your advice on whether this can be safe and how to best set up. I...

    Dns filter + NordVpn

    You are probably right, don't claim to be an expert, just showing what has been working for me. I set that and see how it goes. Thank you!

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.14 (and 384.13_2) are now available

    RT-AC68U running flawlessly on 384.14 after upgrade a few days ago from 384.13. I am a little ashamed to admit it but have not ever done a factory reset since buying this router new, loading Merlin and upgrading FW along the way a few years back.

    Setting up IPV6 with DNS-over-TLS

    I wondered if running VPN on my router was preventing IPv6 from functioning - seems this is so as Nord tells me they do not support IPv6 - so much for that!

    Setting up IPV6 with DNS-over-TLS

    I made the changes and rebooted router but I do not have IPv6 connectivity: (https://test-ipv6.com/) When I connect directly through my ISP modem I do get IPv6. What am I missing? Thanks for your help!

    Setting up IPV6 with DNS-over-TLS

    I am also interested in this also but first must enable IPv6 on my RT-AC68U connected to my Telus Actiontec 1200H. So far am stuck at whether to set Native, Passthrough or Static IPv6. following this instruction: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/113990 I have had no success in getting...

    WiFi Geolocation

    Thank you RMerlin, point taken. CaptainSTX - this is a security forum right? Anyone willing to take on questions 2 and 3?

    WiFi Geolocation

    Old news yes, (as I had stated) and current news too. People were concerned then, not sure there is good reason to ignore it now. I did confirm that the MAC address shown located on a map at wigle.net is that of my wireless router. I don't have enough knowledge about networking to know if I...

    WiFi Geolocation

    I just recently learned that Google has a database showing the geolocation of most or many home WiFi networks. (I am behind apparently) This has nothing to do with one's IP address or whether a VPN is used. (check at https://ipleak.net/ after activating Geolocation detection) I am very careful...

    Trying to get Merlin on my RT-AC87U !?

    I am not as experienced as many here but if I was having this difficulty I would perhaps try power-cycling the router after update and if still nothing maybe resetting router and trying again.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 384.11 and Factory Settings

    Factory reset is certainly recommended but.....will admit that I have never done one with this router (since new) in two years on Merlin over multiple updates. I always thought I would just flash the new firmware and see if any issues first, never had any so never did it. (will undoubtedly be...

    [Preview] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.11 with DNS over TLS

    WAN > Internet Connection > Enable DNSSEC support (Yes No) I see examples and references to this setting - some are saying set to No, (when using OpenDNS I think) others Yes. Can anyone please clarify what is recommended when using DNS-over-TLS with Cloudflare?
