    Gigabit fiber pppoe speed issue

    I did notice that if I connect my laptop directly to the ONT I get the same 150 as when I have the asus router connected. But my network card is showing as 1G connection.

    Slow PPPoE with RT-AC68U and gigabit fiber

    I know this an old thread but wondering if anyone resolved the issue without replacing the router? I just switched providers and connected my RT-AC5300 to the ONT, configured my vlan tag as instructed but can't get more than 150m on my 1000m line. I was running the latest merlin firmware and...

    Gigabit fiber pppoe speed issue

    I never had QOS turned on, I've never used it. My last provider was 300m so never needed it.

    Gigabit fiber pppoe speed issue

    I've just upgraded my broadband to a new provider, fiber to the home. I connected my RT-AC5300 to the ONT and configured the router to pppoe with relevant login details, I jumped over to the Lan side and set vlan to 10 as advised but the speeds don't hit past 150 and drop down considerably...

    Vpn advice

    If I was looking at picking up a new router what would you recommend? I was looking at RT-AX88U But it looks like its only dual band when my current one is Triband. I need speed and range as I have a big house and a couple of children, A lot of devices online at once.

    Vpn advice

    The devices in question are tv's. Anyway if the router you mention is so good why is my one still twice the price? Surely it aint all crap lol https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B019HH3HSI/?tag=smallncom-21

    Vpn advice

    Im currently running Merlin latest firmware and i'm starting to get worried about the whole IPTV issues. I could configure the vpn just to run against the two TV's using IPTV but will this still allow the full 350m to all other devices? There is a lot of devices running at once in my house...

    Vpn advice

    Hey everyone, So I just got hit with a letter from my broadband provider about music downloading so I'm looking to use a vpn. I have the asus AC5300 and wanted to run it on the router itself. Can anyone recommend a good vpn? I have a 350M line and a lot of devices in the house with kids and...

    Shut off network for a device at a specific time using Mac address? RT-AC88U

    Disabled Nat Acceleration and everything seems to be working the way I want it. Looking into the link you provided earlier states to have it set to auto if your isp speed is above 100M, I have a 300M line should or would it affect things?

    Shut off network for a device at a specific time using Mac address? RT-AC88U

    Yeah it's unusual. Just to clarify you enter parental controls/time Scheduling and then dark squares restrict time while light ones allow time? Just checking it's the same as mine. See pic attached. I've emailed Asus about it aswell.

    Shut off network for a device at a specific time using Mac address? RT-AC88U

    Updated to Merlins latest firmware and tried to restrict access but am still having the same issue. Device when started had access restricted. A few moments later it was given access and moments after that it was restricted again. This is driving me crazy..

    Shut off network for a device at a specific time using Mac address? RT-AC88U

    So I just flashed the latest stable merlin firmware and before I even got to look at the time scheduling I'm back to the problem I had before I left merlins. Take my phone for example, on standard firmware spèedtest cones back anything from 200 -300m no issue. Leave the house come back and...

    Shut off network for a device at a specific time using Mac address? RT-AC88U

    The one thing I thought might be causing the issue is that I have Web app and filters also enabled. All the kids machines are added here and adult content is ticked, to block any kind of adult content. Does NAT acceleration affect what I think it does? Set to Auto allows devices to open and...

    Shut off network for a device at a specific time using Mac address? RT-AC88U

    Im using the RT-AC5300 aswell and it's a beast. WiFi range is amazing throughout the whole house. I stopped using merlin firmware because every time I left the house and came back onto the network my speeds was terrible, sometimes less than a meg. I never turned Nat acceleration off because I'm...

    Shut off network for a device at a specific time using Mac address? RT-AC88U

    Time scheduling hasn't worked in a long time. It's one of the main reasons I purchased this router. I have 3 kids that I need to be able to restrict but it does not work correctly. Blocks them when they should have access when they are allowed it shows connection in Windows but Speed Test come...

    Parental Controls/Time Scheduling

    Anyone having issues with the time scheduling? I have tried everything but it just doesn't work anymore. I know it worked a couple of firmware's back but not anymore. One of the main reasons I purchased it was for this function.

    Parental Controls/Time Scheduling

    Ok so I have tried to restrict the internet on the kids computers and it looks like it blocks them at the right time but it then does not give them access at the set time. I have it set to allow access between 6-9 in the evening but it keeps the blocked for some reason. The WiFi sign in the...
