    VPN Solution???

    I got mine working though the RT-AC86U cpu can be bogged down due to encryption making the connection a little slower. I recommend that you upgrade to 386-3.2 and read the readme.txt included. If you're still having an issue after the upgrade, take screen shots of your VPN Client and VPN...

    OpenVPN Client Performance

    Okay, here is what I have discovered thus far: RT-AC86U CPUs spike when running a speed test from MacBook: CPU1=55% CPU2=93% So far normal usage is not noticeably impacted. Conclusion: router is under powered Custom configuration settings are different depending if you download the...

    OpenVPN Client Performance

    If I saw high CPU or high memory usage I would agree. For me right now the question is what segment of a OpenVPN solution is causing the additional delay? The ASUS client, the connection, or Express VPN’s implementation.

    OpenVPN Client Performance

    I configured OpenVPN successfully with the Director setup such that only my MacBook is using the connection. Normally my download speed is a consistent 234 Mbps but with the VPN connection it drops to 135 Mbps. When I stop the router client and enable the VPN’s app on the MacBook my speed is 217...

    VPN Solution???

    Thank you for the reply. Looking at the latest Asuswrt-Merlin it seemed possible though I could find no reference. Unfortunately I want to only want to VPN to the UK and Australia on occasion so that means I have to have at least two ovpn files and then go into the router configuration to...

    VPN Solution???

    RT-AC86U with 386-3, I have done my Google search and cannot find anything that validates what I would like accomplish. Hopefully one of you can confirm. As the image depicts I would like our AppleTV to use a VPN tunnel to our VPN service provider while all other devices on our network will be...

    AC86U Wan Port only 100 Mbps / WAN DHCP Does Not Function Correctly

    Okay, you're cascading the AC86U downstream from the AX88U using a single cable with no hubs or other connection points between. Port speed is negotiated between devices and I believe they should be identical at each end. In my opinion, the AC86U may have a physical port issue.

    AC86U Wan Port only 100 Mbps / WAN DHCP Does Not Function Correctly

    So your issue is that a AC86U Ethernet port doesn’t achieve a 1 Gbps connection, correct? What is the Cat value written on the Ethernet cable? What is the other end of the Ethernet cable plugged into? What is the firmware level of the AC86U?

    SNMP

    Dang... another of my projects bites the dust. Guess I'll have to read a book now. Thanks for the quick reply.

    SNMP

    Running 386.1_2 on a RT-AC86U. I cannot find anything (could be me) in the WebGUI regarding SNMP. So from the command line how do I enable SNMP, set the community string, and in general configure SNMP?

    WAN capped at 100mb help please! asus 87u

    In a situation like this it is alway a question of "Is it the chicken or the egg." A 1 Gig Ethernet port will not achieve and remain at 1 Gig unless there is good physical connection and successful auto-negotiations. Autonegotiation I see your next steps as ensuring that both devices are at...

    WAN capped at 100mb help please! asus 87u

    Is it safe to assume that you are referring to your WAN Ethernet port? If so, is this a new problem? If a new problem, what physically changed if anything? Read the label on your Ethernet cable and provide that information How long is the cable? What is the ISP device the router is connected...

    WAN_Connection: ISP's DHCP did not function properly.

    Definitely static on ASUS to ISP router. For my home network I have devices that use DHCP and others with static but I don’t setup static on ASUS for those devices. Devices with static are those devices that never leave home.

    WAN_Connection: ISP's DHCP did not function properly.

    Don’t disable DHCP unless you are paying for static IP address. Go to WAN settings and make sure DHCP query frequency is set to normal.
