    New RT-AC88U user - VPN troubles

    If possible give the AC88U back and buy a AC86U instead. This one has AES-IN support and you are geting 250-260 Mbit/s VPN speed with this toy. If I remember right, I was not possible to get more than 40-50 Mbit/s on VPN with the AC88U since it's processer is missing the AES Acceleration feature.

    [Experimental] WireGuard for HND platform (4.1.x kernels)

    @RMerlin, would it be possible to implement WireGuard inte Merlin firmware? As Odkrys said, it's multicore aware. Uses both cores while testing. No extra configuration is necessary.

    [Experimental] WireGuard for HND platform (4.1.x kernels)

    Can you explain more in detail how to use this config if I want to use policy based routing. Everything works fine when I use the default and all my LAN devices are going out using the WireGuard connection. All devices have fixed IP addresses locked by MAC address. Please write an example how...

    [Experimental] WireGuard for HND platform (4.1.x kernels)

    Well this high CPU usage was only while I have done the Speedtest with Speedtest.net. Under normal usage, the CPU is around 1-2 %. Did a couple of Speed tests in a row, before I took the screen shot. So it's not only one speed test I did once I got WireGuard running.

    [Experimental] WireGuard for HND platform (4.1.x kernels)

    Finally managed to set it up and did a speed test. You are right ... 400+ Mbps is possible. At the same time, the CPU use is about 100% on both CPU's. Wrote a short blog article about this test on my page.

    [Experimental] WireGuard for HND platform (4.1.x kernels)

    Sounds interesting. Will try to take a look at it and test it during the weekend. Will comeback with a followup. Will be nice to compare with my recent VPN speed test done, using OpenVPN.

    RT-AC86U - VPN Speedtests

    1) My experiences in the past have shown that the speed when using other countries than Sweden, was much lower than with Swedish VPN servers. No matter which VPN provider i tested with. 2) I was taking a look at Astrill VPN. Contacted them on the chat and asked for a 7 days free. Received a link...

    OpenVPN performance of the RT-AC86U

    I have also recently bought a RT-AC86U and made some VPN speed tests using the OpenVPN client in the router. https://www.skadligkod.se/vpn/vpn-speedtest-asus-rt-ac86u-merlin-firmware/ After reading your posts I enabled HW Runner in the router. But this didn't improve / change any results in my...

    [Preview 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 early test builds

    Are you releasing a new update for the AC86U (384.5 - alfa 3) ? See you have done a lot of changes recently. Also the 384.20648 was released for the AC86U a few days ago. But this is maybe the same change as you already commited with "Merged with GPL 384_20648 + binary blobs for RT-AC68U"?

    AC68U vs AC3100 vs AC86U wifi testing

    Keep in mind that the AC86U has a newer 64bit processer. So it's not strange that you should see higher performance with this router compared to older models. RT-AC86U: Broadcom BCM4906 (1.8 GHz, 2 cores) RT-AC68U: Broadcom BCM4708A0 (800 MHz, 2 cores) RT-AC3100: Broadcom BCM4709C0 (1.4 GHz, 2...

    Asus 86U - single SSID

    Just give both networks the same SSID name and password. The clients will then only see this "one" SSID from your router and will select the network to use automatically.

    Smart Connect - Fine Tuning

    I just decided to keep the Smart Connect feature switched off, and just using the regular settings. Having by default named both the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz band with the same SSID-name. By this, the clients are using automatically which band to connect to.
