    Ring alarm disconnecting

    I'm not pretending to know what's going on specifically (I do have my suspicions but not interested in a debate :) ) but I have found with many of these "smart devices" that when I have repeated disconnect issue, creating a reserved DHCP entry for that specific MAC very often clears up the...

    RT-AX86S disconnection issues

    Did you do the whole factory reset process before and after loading Merlin? I've been running a AX86S on Merlin for about 6 months now without issue.

    AX86S LED came on "magically"

    I'm not using any add-ons, other than merlin firmware.

    AX86S LED came on "magically"

    Went to bed last night only to see the LEDs illuminated on the AX86S in the bedroom. Turned it off via the switch, waited about 30 seconds and turned it back on. When I came out from the bathroom to get into bed the LEDs were no longer lit. NO, I did NOT hit the LED button on the side...

    Link aggregation between 2 AX88U routers (Main and AP)

    I've got multiple AX88U, AX86S and AC3100 routers set up in a star config with an AX88u as the main and all other routers in AP mode hardwired to the main (AP WAN port to a LAN port on the main AX88U). All routers run Merlin. I have multiple media servers and other devices in my office where...

    RT-AX58U as replacement for RT-AC68U AP

    THANKS ALL for the information! As luck would have it, just before ordering the RT-AX58 I stumbled on an RT-AX86S (yes I know the difference with the RT-AX86U) for $176 at a local store on a one day only sale. Actually we missed the sale by 2 days but the manager at the store gave us the sale...

    RT-AX58U as replacement for RT-AC68U AP

    Ya I get that but it's too pricey. I'm specifically wanting info on the AX58 option

    RT-AX58U as replacement for RT-AC68U AP

    I'm helping out some very good friends who are having coverage issues out on their patio for their TV (ROKU streaming HULU and other services). I found a wired ethernet port in the room leading out to the patio and fortunately it goes back to the main router (Frontier Quantum). The ONLY AX...

    ASUS RT-AX82U $185 new

    And yet here we are 5+ extra messages into the evils of cross posting when ignoring it would have ended in 1. Hope you're well my friend!!!!

    RT-AX82U as a wired AP

    YUP, they've been great and if you're in the market, I saw some refurb sales recently for $100.

    ASUS RT-AX82U $185 new

    So both YOU and TECH9 also cross posted :) OMG, what has become of this world? I've got flashbacks of elementary school, "teacher, teacher, Johnny blah blah blah ... :)"! I would have probably ignored it since I saw someone else had been asked OR if compelled (unlikely), IM'd the person but I'm...

    RT-AX82U as a wired AP

    Any thoughts on using the RT-AX82U as an AP to replace an aging AC3100? My main upstairs and office AP downstairs right now are both AX88. Slowly upgrading all the APs. I do NOT really need AX at this time but as equipment ages and reasonable deals come available I have been replacing things...

    USB 3.0 Not working

    BTW, it shows up in the 2.0 slot and is shown correctly as a USB 3.0 drive

    USB 3.0 Not working

    Using one I've used multiple times in multiple ASUS routers, actually multiple ones. There's got to be something else.

    usb flash drive not detected

    Same issue here. I've used them on my AC68's in the past without incident.

    USB 3.0 Not working

    I have a similar problem trying to use a 64Gb flash drive on an AC3100. I put it in the 3.0 slot, it powers up but never shows up on the main screen nor is accessible. I just want to try the UPnP Media server and VERY LIGHTLY share a couple files.
