    Cloudflare Malware/Adult Content DNS Not Working

    Thank you. Adding the Cloudflare dns to the LAN did work. I still don't understand why it won't work when entered in the WAN settings, but then again, my knowledge about this is very limited. Adding the dns to the LAN does enable filtering, however, it's still a bit like whack a mole. It's...

    Cloudflare Malware/Adult Content DNS Not Working

    I worked with it last night. It's still not working 14 hours later. Hopefully, as you say, it is being worked on and will and will start working soon.

    Cloudflare Malware/Adult Content DNS Not Working

    Hello. I have a RT-AC86U router running Merlin running 384.15 I have entered Cloudflare 1.1.1.3 and 1.0.0.3 for the DNS server entries. I saved the new entries. I then checked to see if the adult content was being blocked. It was still being allowed through. I rebooted the router. The content...

    Internet status: Disconnected

    I actually sent my AC86U back for warranty service. They sent me a factory new in the box replacement. There is definitely something going on with these routers. I have seen the issue recur with the replacement router, however i was able to power cycle everything to get it to reconnect. For all...

    Merlin 384.6 issue on RT-AC86U

    This is similar to a problem that I had. I diagnosed the problem as a dead WAN port on the RT-AC86U router. I got a RMA from Asus and sent it back. Asus sent me a new router. Now, looking back and seeing other people with the same problem, I'm thinking it's something with the 384.6 release that...

    RT 86U Modem Port Dead

    I sent the RT 86U back for warrant service. Service was prompt, and much to my surprise, ASUS shipped me back a brand new unopened retail replacement. Excellent customer service.

    RT 86U Modem Port Dead

    My 3 month old 86U has an apparently dead modem Ethernet port. The modem works fine with a spare AC 66. I have obtained an RMA # from Asus. My question is, will running the Merlin firmware adversely affect my warranty claim? Thanks

    I agree, I't may be as simple as I don't understand how to use this feature.

    QoS Web History - Strange Results

    Web history is not working correctly for me either. I had just ran a search on the forum for this issue when I saw this thread. I can't get it to filter for any specific clients and I really doubt it is logging all the traffic. Filtering doesn't appear to do anything. The really weird part is...

    VPN Services With Dedicated Streaming IP Address (Possible Security Risk?)

    I placed the order with the dedicated streaming IP option. I agree with you, the dedicated IP for use with Kodi, is probably not a good idea. What I was hoping to solve is the aggravating image based captcha authentication on some Kodi video sources. When I'm not behind my PIA vpn it's asimple...

    VPN Services With Dedicated Streaming IP Address (Possible Security Risk?)

    Thanks for the replies. Now that I have a better understanding of this, what VPN service do you recommend that offers a dedicated streaming IP? I'm hoping that using a dedicated streaming IP will eliminate the dreaded picture captcha's for authentication on various streaming sources. Thanks again

    VPN Services With Dedicated Streaming IP Address (Possible Security Risk?)

    Are there any additional security risks using a VPN service that provides a dedicated streaming IP address? I know the providers claim to maintain no records, but the dedicated IP to me seems to be a potential security issue. Thank you
