    RT-N66U Router not connecting to Internet ?

    I don't have any custom scripts/configs added. I just restarted the router again, and have attached the System Log so far (kind of long even though I just rebooted - won't let me post here due to character limit) ..

    RT-N66U Router not connecting to Internet ?

    Hi guys .. So I recently switched to Merlin 374.41 FW like 1-2 weeks ago (first time trying out a custom FW) .. Till about 3 days ago everything was working fine .. Then since about 3 days, I haven't been able to connect to the internet when going through the RT-N66U .. However, if I directly...

    Any way to set a host entry at router level ?

    Thanks for the input guys .. Okay so if I put "xyz" for the name, and then I browse to xyz.com, will it go to that VM then or not ? Also, another problem I have is that both the MAC of my laptop's NIC, and of the VM's NIC, are the same from the router's point of view. That is to say, in the...

    Any way to set a host entry at router level ?

    Are you referring to setting a static IP for a given MAC address ? Well that's not what I want, because that doesn't necessarily make a website address go to specific IP. That just tells the router to always assign a specific IP to a given MAC address.

    Any way to set a host entry at router level ?

    Thanks. Isn't there a way to do this directly from within the router's settings pages ? I don't mind going command prompt, but I'd like to stick with the router's settings area if possible, as it would be easier to keep track of changes that way.

    Any way to set a host entry at router level ?

    Hi guys ... I have a VM running on my laptop, and the VM has its own dedicated IP. This VM is running a website, and I want to add a host entry sort of a thing at the router level, so that whenever someone on my network enter's the website's address (e.g. www.xyz.com), the request is forwarded...

    How do I share a USB Hard Drive as a Network Drive ?

    Turning on "Allow guest login" fixed my problems! Both drives are now showing in their own folders just like I wanted ! Thanks a lot :D

    How do I share a USB Hard Drive as a Network Drive ?

    Thanks. Your answer to the first question seems to be suggesting (kind of) that I can somehow share the whole disk instead of individual folders ? Is that so ? If yes, how do I do this ? I want to be able to see the files in ROOT location too, and also be able to create/delete/modify ROOT...

    How do I share a USB Hard Drive as a Network Drive ?

    Another problem I see: If I have TWO USB portable Hard Drives connected to the router, the 'RT-N66U' Network PC will list the ROOT folders from both the drives in the same location .. This can potentially cause problems when you connect two hard drives which both have a ROOT folder of the...

    Having problems connecting to an OpenVPN Server ..

    Hi guys .. So I just did my first firmware upgrade for my recently purchased RT-N66U. I'm currently on the Merlin 374.41 firmware .. I have an OpenVPN Server to which I'd like to connect the router to. I have the .ovpn file, and in the OpenVPN Client tab, I'm uploading this .ovpn file, and then...

    How do I share a USB Hard Drive as a Network Drive ?

    Hi guys ... Well I bought the ASUS RT-N66U about a month or so back .. Till now I was using a very very old stock ASUS firmware, but today upgraded it to the latest Merlin build, 374.41 .. My question is simple. I have a 2 TB Portable USB Hard Drive which I want to share on the network...

    ASUS RT-N66U can't stream 1080p videos ?!

    No I'm streaming from a Laptop wirelessly. It's being received by the PS3 wireless too. I understand that speeds on Router specs may be overexagerrated, but getting 20 Mbps at least for a router capable of 450 Mbps is safe to assume, right ? Also, how do I do 'LAN speedtest' ?

    ASUS RT-N66U can't stream 1080p videos ?!

    @r00t4rd3d, thanks for the firmware suggestion ... Any reason why should I use this particular FW ? Also, any other firmware to use maybe ? And why ? I'm just trying to see which firmware for this router is generally the most recommended, and why (if possible) .. And can router firmwares be...

    ASUS RT-N66U can't stream 1080p videos ?!

    Alright I'll test with a wired connection tonight. But why would ASUS advertise the router as having 2x 450 Mbps, when it can't seem to even do 20 Mbps properly ? :/ Or is something else being the bottleneck and not the router (if yes, what ?) ?

    ASUS RT-N66U can't stream 1080p videos ?!

    Yeah I can try that, but updates normally only fix minor issues ... On its face value, this seems like a pretty big issue to me .. I mean I had an old Netgear W100 router before this which I bought like 6-7 years ago, and even that could stream 720p videos with lag .. It streamed 1080p with...

    ASUS RT-N66U can't stream 1080p videos ?!

    Hi guys ... So I bought an ASUS RT-N66U for my new house because its considered as one of the best and fastest routers out there currently .. Firstly, let me say that I'm *extremely new* to ASUS RT-N66U, so it's very likely that the following issue might just require some tweaking or...
