    Limit of 64 Manually Assigned IP around the DHCP list - Workaround for RT-AX92U?

    Thanks. Never saw that before. So if I go to 255.255.254.0, do I get IP addresses like 192.168.x.345 permitted? Or are the expanded IP addresses shown in another way?

    Limit of 64 Manually Assigned IP around the DHCP list - Workaround for RT-AX92U?

    I am limited to 255 IP addresses, right? Not sure what you mean "f you made the IP pool bigger (e.g., /23 instead of /24)"?

    Limit of 64 Manually Assigned IP around the DHCP list - Workaround for RT-AX92U?

    Thanks. This is kind of where I ended up. Is Raspberry PI the way to go or are their other alternatives. I am not a LINUX guy but have figured some things out with Terminal on my mac in the past. Dont have the hardware so its an investment in something new regardless.

    Limit of 64 Manually Assigned IP around the DHCP list - Workaround for RT-AX92U?

    Unfortunately, the TP Link/ KASA devices do not let you assign static IP addresses. Manually-assigned IP addresses can only be done by the router. The Shelly devices do seem to permit the user to assign a true static IP. Unfortunately the Raspberry PI DHCP server idea seems like the best one...

    Limit of 64 Manually Assigned IP around the DHCP list - Workaround for RT-AX92U?

    I am converting my powerline light switches in my house (Insteon) to IP based switches by Shelly and TP-Link/KASA. For the software I use, I need static IP addresses so I can differentiate between lights in the house (I use one switch to dim on turn on/off another). My RT-AX92U has been...

    Tutorial How to automatically run a script on asus routers that monitors your WAN link - will reboot the router if WAN is down. (from POV of a non linux guy)

    Mac version of transfer that worked for me (using scp instead of pscp, and port 22 instead of 1025): scp -P 22 C:\temp\Trans\chkWAN.sh xxAdminxx@router.asus.com:/jffs/chkWAN.sh

    Thanks - that is what I suspected but was looking for confirmation. I waiting for next crash and then will install.

    RT-AX92U loses internet connection

    Found this. Going to try. I believe its a fix but I need to figure out how to do from a Mac. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/how-to-automatically-run-a-script-on-asus-routers-that-monitors-your-wan-link-will-reboot-the-router-if-wan-is-down-from-pov-of-a-non-linux-guy.74336/

    Tutorial How to automatically run a script on asus routers that monitors your WAN link - will reboot the router if WAN is down. (from POV of a non linux guy)

    Perhaps a dumb question, but from a long suffering ASUS RT-AX92U user who reboots at least twice a week to correct loss of WAN IP... Is there a Macintosh version of these instructions? I believe we dont use PUTTY and can do most of not all of the steps from Terminal, but it would be great if...

    RT-AX92U loses internet connection

    I am not sure what you mean by "tainted kernel". Can you be more specific about where you see that on my log. I have 3 RT92U units. All using the latest firmware released last week. No loss of WAN IP since update. But my son was away for weekend so this week is a better test. It seems that...

    RT-AX92U loses internet connection

    Mine is a bit different in that my ASUS loses its WAN IP only (from ISP's DHCP)- I have full wired and LAN access to my network. Software reboots correct the problem. Nothing else i can do software wise will fix. Tried Aggressive, Normal and Continuous modes with same result. I cannot...

    Router not getting internet back after WAN drop

    If this is the case, what can I do an an end user with Optimum? Can I get the script to work without installing Merlin (on base ASUS firmware)? It would be great to resolve this issue

    Better not to use LAN ports on mesh nodes (even with ethernet backhaul)?

    Yes I am. Been working well. I have had one issue where I needed to reboot a node in the past 6 months or so - I figure that is pretty good. Of course that does not include my issues with the bad LAN ports. It was pretty bad because the LAN port connecting to my 8 port switch was bad. It...

    Better not to use LAN ports on mesh nodes (even with ethernet backhaul)?

    I have 3 X-92U units, a primary and two mesh connected through wired backhaul. I use the other LAN ports on the 92U on the two mesh nodes and both then LAN ports and a separate 8 port switch on the primary node/router, I have no issues with the LAN ports in general. HOWEVER, about 3 months...

    Router not getting internet back after WAN drop

    I have same issue with ASUS RT-AX92U - WAN IP goes away every 3-4 days and I must reboot ASUS router to restore connection. I would love to try Chk-WAN script, but I am unsure how to install. I use a Mac to interface with router so I assume I'd use terminal. But using ASUS firmware and not...

    RT-AX92U loses internet connection

    Trying this one again. I have tried DHCP continuous mode, aggressive mode and normal mode. Same problem regardless. WAN IP becomes "disconnected" after several days. Not sure what the cause is - seems to be spontaneous. The only way to fix is reboot - and attempt to get DHCP to restart...

    RT-AX92U loses internet connection

    Found a setting that seems to help so far. Changed to DHCP Continuous mode on WAN page. It seems that the unit had been in aggressive mode, and both aggressive and normal mode time out after a few tries if no IP obtained. Continuous makes more sense since my ISP seems to have tried periods...

    RT-AX92U loses internet connection

    I have an issue with my AX-92U routers losing their WAN connection on a semi-regular basis (a few times/week - irregular intervals). WAN IP is set by DHCP. Using Optimum 1Gig non-fiber for service - Optimum router set to bridge mode. Normally the ASUS router reads "Internet status:Connected"...

    RT-N66U bufferbloat

    Thanks. So you would suggest I ignore the bufferbloat score of C and look for another cause? I tried connecting just one computer (iMac 2011) to router to ONT (took everything else off network) and bufferbloat score the same C.
