    Due to hardware limitation, IGMP proxy cannot co-exist with IPTV function

    An alternative would be to put a managed switch, like the Netgear GS105V2 between your router and the internet connection. In my case it's enough to enable IGMP Snooping to separate multicast traffic (IPTV) from unicast traffic (everything else). The switch does also support VLANs...

    Router abnormal behavior cpu

    I would not recommend reverting to an older firmware version. They are constantly upgraded, in part to fix security flaws. Adding features, improving performance, fixing security flaws and "bugs" are in my view the most important reasons for any software upgrade. In a tradeoff between...

    Router abnormal behavior cpu

    This is not a solution. If you read the link @PeterV posted, it points a finger to AiProtection by Trend Micro. Since you are using AiProtection, you could try to disable the service. If the problem disappear when the service is disabled and reappear when it's enabled, it's a strong indication...

    Router abnormal behavior cpu

    To be able to run a command like "top", you first have to enable "ssh" (secure shell). You'll find the settings under - "Administration -> System of your router. Next you need to install a terminal emulator. The most popular is probably "Putty". Find out if your Windows version is 32 or 64-bit...

    Latest router recommendation for high speed VPN

    Another option is the rt-ax92u. It uses the same cpu as the rt-ac86u. https://wikidevi.com/wiki/ASUS_RT-AX92U https://wikidevi.com/wiki/ASUS_RT-AC86U https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rt-ax88u-and-rt-ax92u-as-aimesh-node-no-ax-mode.58387/#post-517236...

    Is using a USB stick a bad idea?

    So you don't see an advantage/disadvantage, technical or otherwise, to partiton a device in like; "files/tools/jjfs/swap" for instance?

    Is using a USB stick a bad idea?

    My intention is not to hijack the thread, but to continue an interesting discussion. Can someone suggest a partition scheme in percentage and a suitable filesystem for said usb drive? And if/how journaling and swap impacts longevity and to what extent? Or does the benefit of those two features...

    Asus AX88U on sale

    It could be the RT-AX92U. In some markets it's only sold as an AiMesh 2 pack kit. In others you can also buy it separately as we are used to. Hardware wise; RT-AX92U share the CPU with the RT-AC86U. Looking back as far as the RT-N66U, it's got a dramatically different form factor. Pragmatism...

    Asus AX88U on sale

    It's like once you drive a V8 there's no going back to 4-cylinder engines. The problem is the 4 cyl. carburetor fitted on that v8. "It's important to note though, that while the Gigabit network ports are enough for the RT-AC88U, they are not for the RT-AX88U. That's because since the latter is...
