    Navigation in Router GUI Extremely Sluggish

    It does not seem to be ESET, but I suspect something of that nature on my PCs. I temporarily disabled it, but issue still persisted. In parallel, I tried it on another vanilla machine (file server) that does not have any protection - no problems there. So more investigations needed. Thanks...

    Navigation in Router GUI Extremely Sluggish

    Hmmm, I just installed ESET NOD32 this weekend on all of these machines ...... I will turn it off and try again.

    Navigation in Router GUI Extremely Sluggish

    No changes here - no new features, tried different cables and I am still getting Gigabit connections.

    Navigation in Router GUI Extremely Sluggish

    As of late I have noticed that access and navigation within the router GUI has been extremely sluggish for me. This to a point where it simply stops responding and freezes up. Router is a RT-AC66U, approx. 4 months old. Here is what I found thus far: * The LAN itself works fine, i.e. I can...

    How to Set Up iTunes Server on RT-AC66U?

    Bill, thanks for your reply. It seems that I am slowly making some progress: I reformatted my 500 GB drive from NTFS to EXT3. After some teething problems with gaining full access to the drive - while connected to the router, I can finally see my test media files from the router in iTunes. I...

    How to Set Up iTunes Server on RT-AC66U?

    A bit of progress: the router shows up in iTunes on my PC under SHARED ('Shared Library'). However, when I select it, iTunes 'thinks' a bit then reverts back to the default library. I get the same behavior on 2 other PCs I tried. In the remote app on my iOS devices the router does not even show...

    RT-N66U or RT-AC66U?

    Understood - thanks! I got my 'AC' today. Flashed it right away to the latest Merlin f/w and am now in the process of setting it up... so far so good.

    How to Set Up iTunes Server on RT-AC66U?

    Until now I have been running iTunes on a PC. There I am able to connect/control it from my iOS devices (iPad, AppleTV) through the iOS Remote app. My understanding is that router's integrated iTunes server can take the place of the PC. I have copied my entire iTunes library ("MUSIC")...

    RT-N66U or RT-AC66U?

    tijaune, thanks for your feedback. Re: the features you are missing, isn't Merlin's feature set the same for N and AC? In other words, neither one has currently the features you are missing from Toastman's f/w, correct? Thanks!

    RT-N66U or RT-AC66U?

    I am trying to decide between those 2 routers. Key for me is router robustness and stability. Running Merlin f/w therefore seems to be the way to go. I am leaning towards the AC, as it offers a bit more future proofing - that said, none of my existing devices support AC yet. After...
