    RT-AC68U bandwidth limitations

    One thing I forgot to mention, that 910 to 920 Mb/s thru an RT-AC68U is with a pc connected to the 68U via ethernet cable. Only item to remember on loading any firmware, including stock Asus firmware for test purposes, load the firmware and then run a factory reset to wipe out any previous...

    RT-AC68U bandwidth limitations

    Fwiw, the 68U will top out around 910 to 920 Mb/s on an IPV4 speedtest with just the Firewall, AI Protection and wifi running (wifi idling). Thats with all other functions deliberately disabled, including Jumbo Frames and IPV6. I'd recommend stepping thru all of the General and Advanced...

    AC68P - Upgraded to Gigabit internet - receive 1 gbps over ethernet but 250 mpbs over 5G wifi

    IPTV behind router - Using 2 ports as unmanaged switch

    Don't know :( You're going to have to ask a tomato shibby expert.

    IPTV behind router - Using 2 ports as unmanaged switch

    Yes, it will run thru the router, but it will run in the Demiliterized Zone, which should be the same as running a switch after the modem. Only difference should be the IP address assigned by the router instead of the modem. Are the IPTV boxes picky in terms of their IP addresses and which box...

    IPTV behind router - Using 2 ports as unmanaged switch

    Are you able to put the IPTV box in a DMZ, as set up in your router? You would probably have to assign a static IP address to the IPTV box, reboot the router, then assign that IP address to the DMZ. Reboot the router once again. That should work. Does the IPTV box really need to run two...

    AC68P - Upgraded to Gigabit internet - receive 1 gbps over ethernet but 250 mpbs over 5G wifi

    For Windows 10, load one of the following wifi scanners onto a laptop and then do a walk about, around your home and upstairs to see what the channel situation looks like. I'd recommend the following order for selection: Lizard systems wifi scanner inSSIDer lite (I run a licenced version...

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function correctly

    @modemrouter you would have to be sure of which mode the modem is running in. In Gateway mode, the routers would have an IP address that is within the modems IP address range. You would be able to connect a third and/or forth device to the modem and they would receive their own respective LAN...

    Your ISP's DHCP does not function correctly

    @modemrouter after you have run the routers one at a time, plug the second router back into the modem and restart the modem. Pull the power off of the modem, wait for 10 to 15 seconds and plug the modem back in. Hopefully that will result in both routers running with their usual independent IP...

    VPN problem?

    Maybe China's crackdown on VPN use is to blame ?? https://www.zdnet.com/article/vpns-can-still-be-used-in-china-despite-march-31-ban/

    Help for Newbie with QoS/VOIP

    Woohoo ...... nice to see success at the end of it all :) Was that a problem with the RG-6 cable inbound to the modem, or a problem with the Cat 5/5e ethernet cables not being properly terminated to support gigabit data rates?

    Help for Newbie with QoS/VOIP

    Hi @shelleyevens, it sounds like the your internet service is improving bit by bit. Just to add my 2¢, its definitely worth looking at the Ethernet connectors to determine if the cable is connected with all 4 wire pairs (8 wires). That alone should greatly improve the data rate thru the...

    ASUS RT-AC86U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.384.20648

    ASUS RT-AC86U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.384.20648 Stateful IPV6 still doesn't work in the 384.20648 firmware. IPV6 tab shows the IPV6 prefix, connected devices show no IPV6 address. Stateless IPV6 appears to work as expected, connected devices show IPV6 addresses when ipcofig/all command is...

    Help for Newbie with QoS/VOIP

    @shelleyevans, out of curiosity: 1. Do you have a MoCA Point of Entry filter installed on the incoming cable to prevent any other MoCA system from accessing your MoCA network? The follow on to that is, do you have the MoCA adapter's privacy settings enabled and password protected? 2. You...

    [Release 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.4 is now available

    The firewall rules are in effect, but, it appears that the Parental controls aren't working as we expect them to. On an 86U running stock firmware version 3.0.0.4.384.20467, the exact situation occurs as you have described. When a connection is established prior to the enforcement time, it...

    Help for Newbie with QoS/VOIP

    The 6183 uses a Broadcom BCM33843D CPU, which doesn't have any of the latency and UDP packet loss issues that Intel Puma 6 modems have. So, I wouldn't expect you to see any issues with Voip performance due to the 6183 itself.

    Help for Newbie with QoS/VOIP

    Are you running a Arris 6190 modem or any other Intel Puma 6 modem? If your Voip phones use UDP, that would be a good starting point to look at due to the UDP losses thru a Puma 6 modem.

    Is there a way to change the MAC address of a RT-AC68U?

    Were you trying to say that "It will" just copy the MAC from the device you are using to access the router. That's what it does. You can enter a MAC address in that field (that you can generate yourself), only caveat is that you don't want to generate one that is possibly running on the ISP's...

    comp-lzo (LZO-Adaptive) deprecated in OpenVPN 2.4 and removed in OpenVPN 2.5

    Using a Puma 6 modem by any chance? If so, then you probably don't want to use UDP for data transfer due to the UDP losses thru the modem itself.
