    Migrating/Upgrade From AX86U to AX86U Pro, Maintaining Settings Assumptions

    As an old-time DataBase designer, let me try to explain the issues of taking an old Asus settings file and using it on any [ANY] newer or different Firmware version. In classic Database language, a "Table" is made up of "Records" (most often many). Each "Record" is made up of "Fields" (most...

    New ISP router - has no Guest function - looking for suggestions

    YES. It is one way to do what you want. Is it the best? Perhaps, given your current equipment. I have such a setup in service now and has been working without issue for more than 2 years.

    Release ASUS RT-AX88U Pro Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_33320 (2024/09/27)

    NO. As @mocamaster said: "INTERNET". At present asus -PRO router firmware does not permit DENY internet access for any VLAN client. VLAN subnet isolation from other LAN subnets (intranet) is possible.

    AX88U Pro Optimal Antenna Positioning?

    Generally, I agree with @tecand and @barkmarkin . The location of your router can be more important. You don't know what is in your walls. For example, if an AC cable is in the wall just behind your router, it will interfere with signal integrity, especially if the circuit is powering...

    Hacker has remote control over my devices

    Doubtful. In the past, Asus routers have been targeted by hackers. As I recal, these attacks targeted weaknesses in the core code. In fact, Asus seems to be updating may of its routers with what I suspect is sloppy coding, which may have security vulnerabilities. But this is only my guess...

    Hacker has remote control over my devices

    Finding malware is not an easy task. Many malware can hop to other connected devices on your LAN, which are the symptoms you outlined in your OP. You must create a methodical plan to isolated your devices from each other. Then allow one device at a time to gain access to your notebook, each...

    RT-BE88U won't connect to internet after reboot.

    Have you tried adjusting router "WAN > Internet Connection > DHCP query frequency". Router and modem must negotiat handshaking. Modems are designed to work with many routers and routers to work with many brand modems. This handshaking can take several minutes and reboots for your modem to go...

    New ISP router - has no Guest function - looking for suggestions

    Have you considered using your AC68U in a “piggy-back” topology? I do this with (1) AX-3000 that is piggy-backed to an AX-88U. With proper Network Services Filters on the AX-3000, it is possible to isolate all AX-3000 clients from all AX-88U clients. I’m not going to explain the detail of how...

    Desperate need for help, packet loss on Asus ax11000, no solution.

    Just to be clear, you are connecting your modem LAN 2.5gbps port to your Asus WAN 2.5gbps port (not LAN). Right?

    WiFi Router or switch to Mesh?

    Are you using 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz WiFi? If 5Ghz, change to 2.4Ghz WiFi. 2.4 goes through walls easier. Also, move your router and antenna orientation slightly. Turn your router 90 degrees. move 1-3 feet in all directions. Make sure your antenna (if external) is tangential to you hard-to-reach...

    Desperate need for help, packet loss on Asus ax11000, no solution.

    What Firmware are you running on your Asus router? What is the make and module of your ISP modem? How are you wiring your modem to Asus router? When you say "factory reset" are you referring to method 1 or 2 reset procedures. Have you considered, after trying 2 different Asus routers, that your...

    How to set up guest network on RT-AX86U-PRO

    No. Your image in OP is the 1st part of defining a VLAN. Fill out this 1st screen and [Apply]. Then edit your newly created VLAN and find the VLAN ID field. Change it to the subnet you want. See Asus instructions as additional instructions... https://www.asus.com/us/support/faq/1049414/...

    Release ASUS RT-AX88U Pro Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_33320 (2024/09/27)

    Agreed. Seems like they may have discovered some sloppy code that is part of their codebase and common across several routers. Glad they patched it. Perhaps it is part of the new code @RMerlin is waiting for.

    Release ASUS RT-AX88U Pro Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_33320 (2024/09/27)

    Well, the new FW fixed the DNS radio button display in the Guest Network Pro UI. Tried a bogus DNS entry in Guest Network Pro and tried adding VLAN IPs in the Network Services Filer. Neither effort blocked internet access for VLAN clients. So still more work to be done on that front. On a...

    Isolating IP cams and NVR from the rest of the network with VLAN

    A question that most forget to ask is whether your NVR has addressable ethernet ports. Cheap NVRs don't. The good ones do. Does yours? NVR with Addressable Ethernet Based on the search results, here are key findings: Some NVRs have dual Ethernet ports, which offer benefits such as...

    Connecting to device in Guest or IOT VLAN from intranet (using Guest Pro on 3.0.0.6 firmware)?

    I have experienced the same issue. As you have described, 192.168.3.xx subnet is not accessable from your primary router subnet when intranet isolation is on. My work around is to temporarilly config my laptop PC nic with a camera VLAN subnet static IP. This is a simple task. In your case...

    RT AX88U Pro Firmware Update - FW_RT_AX88U_PRO_300610233309

    Same as previous FW update. ...309 just made one security update as reported by Asus. Bugs and lack of the ability to deny internet of any VLAN client/subnet persist. Based on what @RMerlin said... "I'm not expecting the next 3006 GPL drop until the end of September at the earliest, as Asus...
