    Wired router recommendation to connect two subnets with a modem

    If the OP can make his three router double NAT setup work he can setup VLANS on a smart switch as it is done right through the GUI. Now if he wants to setup 802.1q VLANS that is confusing even though it can also be handled in the GUI also. TP-Link has decent FAQs that can help anyone...

    Wired router recommendation to connect two subnets with a modem

    You could do what you want probably with no more than two routers and maybe with just one depending on what your WiFi requirements are. If you need several subnets for wired devices consider using smart switches instead of routers. You can purchase a five port TP-Link smart switch for $22...

    Wired router recommendation to connect two subnets with a modem

    Still not clear how your network is setup. Does your ISP provide you with two public IPs from a single modem or do you have two modems and each of these modems is then connected to its own router? Perhaps if you provided a diagram of what you currently have someone could answer your questions...

    Wired router recommendation to connect two subnets with a modem

    I am not really sure what your end goal is for your network but if you find a router that you can flash Tomato on then Tomato using its GUI will let you create VLANS each with its own subnet as well as virtual APs which can be associated with its own subnet.

    VPNMON VPNMON-R3 v1.3.7 -Oct 20, 2024- Monitor WAN/Dual-WAN/OpenVPN Health & Reset Multiple OpenVPN Connections (Now available in AMTM!)

    I got R3 working and so far so good. I did remove R2 since I have it set up for only a single VPN client and with a restart every night just to be sure the VPN client isn't down. I don't block devices if the VPN client fails as connectivity for my IoT devices is more important than whatever...

    Mystery of connection speed in Netflix app in TV - with or without network switch

    I can't explain why your speed tests higher when directly connected to the router but the speeds you are seeing are comparable to what I'm seeing on my TV connected by an Ethernet cable to a fast Ethernet port on an endpoint switch. My backbone wired LAN is connected using Smart switches with...

    GL.iNet Flint Alternatives

    Amazon has several newer models on sale. Really don't see upgrading as in hotels 20 Mbps is a fast connection.

    GL.iNet Flint Alternatives

    On the VPN appliance because both WireGuard and OpenVPN use just a single core not much difference in throughput. I just tested by my GL-Inet AR750 which has a lessor processor than the OP's purchase but it can do 40 Mpbs when connected using a WireGuard client. Interested in seeing what the...

    amtm amtm 4.9 - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu, June 30, 2024 (locked thread)

    Same problem and as suggested by removing the blocking of 22 countries the minor problem goes away.

    GL.iNet Flint Alternatives

    I haven't used that particular model but their firmware is excellent and it offers many options. The VPN client either OPEN or WireGuard work well but I would be surprised that this or any router could get the WireGuard speeds that you quoted with the limited processor most routers usually...

    Advice Needed for Isolating My Network Setup From Landlord's Network

    When you set up your router just select a DHCP subnet for assigning IPs on ypur lan that is different than your landords. If he is using the the common default of say 192.168.1.0/24 then you could select 192.168.2.0/24. You will be able to tell what is router is using as a subnet by looking...

    LAN separate from apartment LAN

    Yes it works very well. I use one for my travel router and have no problems streaming Netflix or Amazon in hotels with connection speeds of 10 Mbps or less. The GL-inet routers also allow you to run VPN clients either Open or WireGuard and specify which client devices use the tunnel.

    Beginners Questions: What is the Max Input Speed on the ASUS RT-AX86U?

    Perhaps someone can give you the actual VPN client download speeds they are are getting on the same model that you are planning to purchase. On my AX86S the download speeds I get range between 160 - 180 Mbps but occasionally slightly higher. This is only a little higher than I was getting...

    Mac filtering for IOT network

    While not a solution I had the same problem if for some reason the router and APs rebooted devices might connect to a non optimal AP so I set my DHCP lease times to 300 minutes and then when the device renews its AP the MAC filter will be active and force the device to connect to the preferred AP.

    What became of your TM-AC1900?

    I still have a 54G working just fine as a switch in a media cabinet. A wired fast eternet connection works great there. No need for a device with gig ports to support streaming even 4K HDTV. The issue with the TM-AC1900 is that it isn't supported and and no firmware updates in years so it is...

    RT-AX86U - 2.4 Ghz Network is NOT working anymore (was working before)

    Only things to try I can see before replacing router: Disable on 2.4 Ghz the WiFi 6 mode Pick a fixed channel 1,6 or 11 Set bandwidth to 20 Good luck.

    About Asus RT-AX 86 PRO

    On my AX86S on a 1.2 Gig connection with a PC connected by Ethernet to the router I sometimes get over 250 Mbps download speeds when running OpenVPN but more typically the speed is in the range 150 - 175 Mbps. If I connect using a WireGuard client speed normally doesn't exceed 100 Mbps...

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    Hopefully what you ordered will work in your case. If not look for straight DECA devices as you don't need MOCA since you won't be sharing your coaxial cable with video signals. They also tend to be slightly less expensive. If you only needed fast Ethernet speeds you can find DECA adapters...
