    kernel: br0 / eth2 messages

    Second set of messages is my iPhone. I assume the weak signal because it is connecting to another AP that is closer. But why the RADIUS message? I never got that before. The first set of messages is more interesting to me. Port 2 has a MoCa adaptor that connects over coax to another MoCa...

    kernel: br0 / eth2 messages

    For the last three days, my router (GT-AX6000) has been logging the following messages periodically - maybe 9 times in a row, then stopping for a few hours, then posting one or two more times, then stopping and starting seemingly randomly. Nothing is being unplugged. Jul 17 18:17:22 kernel...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    Actually I gave up on the AI Mesh. I just made all of the formerly Mesh nodes into AP's. Now I have good AX connections and speeds at all my WiFi locations. We will see if it holds. But the AI Mesh was not willing to give AX connections in all rooms and it too difficult to narrow down the...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    Another question as I continue to try to optimize my WiFi. I turned down the performance of the 5gHz band, hoping to lower the signal and minimize interference between my router and its nodes (after reseting the GT-AX6000 and staring from factory). I now have good fast connections when my...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    Thanks - one step ahead of me - I had just narrowed down the MAC address after your prior comment - it is an HP printer

    Complete is: Jul 14 09:20:20 dnsmasq-dhcp[27162]: BOOTP(br0) 2c:27:d7:10:10:b9 no address configured

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    Reset the GT-AX6000 to factory settings and manually reloaded my DHCP configuration this time so I did not need to import the configuration from old router. This time the GT-AX6000 shows only one 5gHz band (as it should) and my connection speeds have improved substantially. I guess reloading...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    I tried something different just now after re-reading all the comments. I took one of my RT-92u routers off AI-Mesh mode and made it a standalone AP with separate networks for 2.5, 5-1 and 5-2. I connected at fast speed (speed test over 600) with 5-2 only. That makes sense, as 5-1 is a 2x2...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    I had another thought. I have had the router set to include 160 mHz width and DFS channels. Just turned off both (I have Apple devices only, and I am pretty sure they max out at 80 mHz width, and I am 5 miles from airport that has increase traffic in summer months. Is it possible that DFS has...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    I am confused. How do you set the bandwidth on the AiMesh nodes different from the GT-AX6000?

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    I will test thing with a full reset this week. I'll reset the GT-AX6000 and see if all the channels are available, before adding any nodes. Then add a node and see what happens. That should be telling. Sounds like I should strongly consider using separate AP's taser than AI mesh nodes if...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    I am not sure where I would see where the router is set to work. It came from Amazon so presumably set for US. But I dont see a relevant settings page. Attaching the screenshot showing limited channel options.

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    I am confused here. My main router is GT-AX6000 and the AI nodes new RT92u units. The nodes are trio-band, but the main router should offer all 5gHz channels. And the nodes are all hardwired, so they should have both 5gHz bands available. What is equally odd is that when I set the wireless...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    Unfortunately, what I am finding is what works best one day does not work as well a few days later. And I cannot for the life of me determine what is different between the two days. Seems to be similar users, applications etc, but some days speed is significantly better than others, and other...

    Best Channels for 5gHz WiFi6?

    I have 4 ASUS routers in a Mesh setup, and additional TP-Link routers at the periphery of my home network. The ASUS devices must all be on the same channel, which each TP-Link device lets me choose a channel. I had been achieving Speed Test results on my iPhone 14 in the 600-700 range, but...

    Using Apple TV with NordVPN / Merlin

    Thanks. The problem with this link is that it only specifies country and not region. So everything that comes up in NY, which I am trying to avoid

    Using Apple TV with NordVPN / Merlin

    just tried to install on FT-AX6000 with Merlin and got an error message "Entware not detected". Do I need Entware and is it easy and safe to load?

    Using Apple TV with NordVPN / Merlin

    Another question. I set up my router with Merlin to provide a UPN. I downloaded a config file generated by NordVPN's server utility. But I was never given an option to pick a region - only a country. And every config file I have generated is in my own region (NYC area). There must be a way...
