    Is this still the best recommendation?

    Asus routers are finicky on Spectrum with common DHCP Errors. That's why I went to Ubiquity. Budget is $200ish. Spectrum is unmetered cable internet. Speed is 100mbps. He's got a 3000 sf wood framed stucco and drywall home. It would be in the second floor loft area so pretty centralized...

    Help Changing DHCP Server Address and Pool Range on UniFi Security Gateway

    I got everything set up, including a smooth upgrade from Win 7 to Win 10 on my NUC, using the same activation key for success which slightly surprised me. I was working without connecting the USG to the WAN on the Modem until I could not any longer so I moved all the equipment from the dining to...

    Bricked RT-AC68u?

    I finally found the time to do this and it worked. Why didn't I know something so simple already!!?? THANK YOU! Since I'm Selling it I'm just going to leave it at the "Welcome to RT-AC68U" setup screen and let the buyer set it up however they want to.

    Bricked RT-AC68u?

    I'll give that method a try. It was on ASUSWRT version prior to 385.10000 as I update f/w after checking for issues online so it was one f/w back as during the holidays I was too busy to update. 1 Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Bricked RT-AC68u?

    I'm sorry if I came off rude. I think this one's just a brick because the closest I can get to the GUI is the screen grab I posted above. Since I can't get into the GUI I can't set it to SSH Mode. No recovery methods that I tried of work and I was hoping maybe there was something else that I...

    Bricked RT-AC68u?

    Hmm. For a router I'm going to sell on eBay it seems a better use of time to toss it in the trash as I'll probably yield $30 after fees and shipping. BTW, none of that is obvious to me; that is why I asked. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Bricked RT-AC68u?

    I'm trying to take my RT ac68u out of aimesh mode and when I did the reset it wouldn't come back to life at 192.168.1.1. I proceeded to do a recovery with the latest firmware restoration tool from Asus with the adapter set to 192.168.1.10 to f/w 3004.385.10000 but it fails at about 90% complete...

    Can the AP's work on a WiFi back haul? Can I use my existing Asus Routers as additional AP's with the Dream Machine? Can I actually use my existing Asus Routers as AP's with the EdgeRouter X and do I even need a managed switch (to start, to save money)?

    Here's my infrastructure to help out. Doing other than the daisy chain will require considerable destructive work to pull new cabling and I'm not interested in that. I'm pretty sure I'm going with Ubiqiti: USG, one AP and one Switch to start. BTW, I have a DOCSIS 3.1 Modem (Ubee E31U2V1) free...

    Any other suggestions? Is there something I can do with my ASUS router to prevent this from happening in the future? This has happened at least four times over the last couple of years three of those within the last 12 months. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    So here's the deal.. I've been using Asus AiMesh for quite some time with an RT-AC3100 and three RT-AC68u's. Over the course of the last year I've had issues with Spectrum not dishing out a valid HDCP IP address and my router going to carp with my having to reset and restore from backup...

    Most Homes Need 50MB Service or Less!

    My results said 156 Mbps and the inputs didn't even allow me to enter all the devices I have connected. Not even an input for running a media server. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

    Help and Possible Upgrade Suggestions?

    No replies but I'm happy to report that my system came back on line. I had Spectrum "Hit" the modem yesterday and then I pulled the power on it for about 10 minutes while my router was powered down. I then powered up the modem and waited another 10 minutes before plugging in the router an...

    Help and Possible Upgrade Suggestions?

    I have on a couple of occasions recently had a total melt down of my network. Everything will drop off and then internet will go away. I'll reboot the recently deployed Ubee modem and Asus AC3100 router along with its three AC68u AiMesh nodes to no avail with the router basically needing a...
