    Asus' app (Asus Router, Discovery)

    Oh sorry, I guess it is compatible with Android...I will try uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if things work. Thank you.

    Asus' app (Asus Router, Discovery)

    I have the RT-AX88U Asus router as my main router and use its AiMesh feature with 4 other Asus (legacy) router that support AiMesh as nodes (namely RT-AC88U, RT-AC86U, RT-AC66U B1 & RT-AC68R). I was using Asus stock firmware in all of them and decided to use Merlin firmware in all them again...

    Problems connecting node to main AiMesh router using Merlin firmware. Should I go back to Asus stock?

    Well, I got exhausted trying to link the routers via AiMesh with Merlin firmware so I went back to Asus stock firmware and the routers connected fine without me doing anything differently than I had done before (like moving the routers closer together-- I left them where they were and the AiMesh...

    Problems connecting node to main AiMesh router using Merlin firmware. Should I go back to Asus stock?

    Connecting AiMesh: I am having difficulty connecting a node using Merlin firmware. Do I need to revert back to Asus stock firmwares to connect AiMesh?

    Asus RT-AX89X some newer router Dong Ngo rated

    Okay, my misunderstanding I guess even with the older RT- routers that you may not support further (example RT-N66 or RT-AC66R), at least you had legacy firmware that still applies to those and maybe you end your support for those in 2018. I am still using Merlin Firmware in those 2 routers of...

    Asus RT-AX89X some newer router Dong Ngo rated

    Well that was blunt enough. As I said , I give up on some of this as once I learned the firmware did not apply to GT models of Asus routers, once I found another RT- model router, I find an exception to the rule again and maybe not all RT- routers are supported. I am going to call Asus about...

    RT-AX89X

    or there are 10 (base 2 or 2 in subscript) types of people in the world (10)2 or 102= 2 1* 2^1 + 0*2^0 = 1*2 + 0*1 = 2 + 0 = 2

    Asus RT-AX89X some newer router Dong Ngo rated

    Oh thank you. I looked over the list of RT- supported routers and did not see this one in the list but thought there may have been another (like RT-AX88U) whose firmware could apply to this one just like I believe some others that may not be listed. I thought Merlin firmware applied to all...

    Asus RT-AX89X some newer router Dong Ngo rated

    Hi all again, I was wondering if Merlin Firmware would be available for some newer Asus router: RT-AX89X or which other firmware for any existing supported router could be applied to this particular router? I meant 89X not 98X Thank you.

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    Okay, I think this is good. I apologize for the novels I wrote and the text width and for not using left & right justification like I used to use with word processors of the past. Anyway, I just do not know how things got so out of hand with all of these devices over the years. Well, thank you...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    I guess I was thinking hypothetically. It just seems I have too many devices that are connected or can be potentially connected to my router and those devices keeps increasing. Some devices such as computers and a few video streamers like Roku (I have 2 of these) that have both wireless and...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    So does this mean that as I approach nearly 100 or so if not close to 128 IP reservations that I will have problems in the router using your firmware? The only reason why I am using your firmware is that I want to approach 100 or so IP reservations and associations and labeling benefits...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    To clarify, this is regarding the GT-AX11000? So are there 128 IP clients or IP reservations for the RT- routers namely the RT-AC88U or even the RT-AX88U? I have the AC88U and it indicates that up to 128 IP reservations using Merlin firmware. Asus stock firmware limits this to 64. This is why I...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    Well Dong Ngo likes all types of routers not just Asus ones. He liked the Netgear and Linksys ones and so much, he gets two of them... :) Well that is I noticed when he was commentator for Cnet. I based my decisions on how a few of them were rated on the CNet site and the best routers or...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    It is final, IF I should upgrade , I guess I will settle with the RT-AX88U. It will be ready for possible Merlin firmware installation which will allow the 128 IP reservations and easy labeling and matching MAC with IP and naming each device attached to the network (LAN) and it will be hopefully...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    Okay then, I guess I will wait it out and just use what I have. RT-AC88U in mesh mode with nodes of RT-AC68R and RT-AC86U in a kind of triangulation set up. I also am using legacy Asus routers as wireless bridges: RT-AC66R and RT-N66R ... too many wireless signals perhaps. I was hoping to...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    Oops, maybe I should have said I had heard ... You know with all of these models, it can get confusing which router is which but I get it, the firmware is not supported on the GT models, however RT- Models are supported even if tri-band. My mistake or misspoken comment. In the end I guess I...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    That is with Merlin Firmware... With stock Firmware Asus only allows 64. I am aware of this unless you meant to tell me stock firmware also supports 128 clients' mac - ip address labeling associations? So the consensus would probably to get the RT-AX88U (but it does not have the dual 5GHz bands...

    Asus GT-AX11000 router

    Hi all, I would like to know if the Merlin Firmware or some form of it would be applicable to the GT-AX11000 router as I am considering upgrading from the RT-AC88U I have currently. The only thing I would like is the doubling of the DHCP IP reserves and naming of each device by its MAC address...

    Return to forum, question about mesh networks & various Asus routers

    Thank you all for your assistance or suggestions for my migration back to using Merlin Firmware in 3 of the viable ASUS routers (some of the best out I may say): RT-AC88U (controller/main) and the RT-AC68R (the highest, best- rated router on Cnet ) & the RT-AC86U (the newest of my routers) both...
