    ASUS XD4 WiFi Backhaul Connection To ASUS Router

    OK So I did a lot of searching and found the following method worked for me regarding the nodes. This assumes the RT-AX58U will remain as the main router and the three nodes configured as AIMesh nodes. An ASUS website shows how to update the AiMesh node firmware once they have been connected...

    ASUS XD4 WiFi Backhaul Connection To ASUS Router

    Hi I need some help and advice please. I have finally managed to get a three unit Zen Wifi XD4 in black to improve the WiFi around my house. I currently have an RT-AX58U router. All are Wifi 6 ax compatible units. All the information from ASUS I have found shows adding the three units as WiFi...

    Asus RT-AX58U Bug Problems Wih Install

    Due to zero response, I trawled through the internet on my phone and found the following worked. There may be better ways to resolve the obvious software bug, but this worked for me after much trial and error: How to get back a stuck Asus RT-AX85U router installed with the default supplied...

    Asus RT-AX58U Bug Problems Wih Install

    After connecting my Asus RT-AX58U to my new ISP, I made some changes to try it with a second ax capable router used as a WiFi 6 extender. I had previous success with a non ax Vodafone router and my new ISP Technicolor one is much faster so was hoping for an increase is speed. (While I am still...

    Why No Intranet Or Wifi?

    That is my point though! My intranet/streaming should not be affected but it is. So how do I prevent it?

    Why No Intranet Or Wifi?

    I am sorry but I didn't realise all the Asus router models (or those of other makes) behaved differently! I am using an Asus RT-AX58U. I don't know the firmware, but it is the manufacturer's default. Under the new ISP recommendation I have it disconnceted at the moment while the broadband speed...

    Why No Intranet Or Wifi?

    Hi Having transitioned between ISPs I found that I had no internet for two days (thanks Vodafone!). What I found during this time was that my Internet led was showing red, as expected, but at the same time the router would not pass anything at all!. I hard wire stream videos and music from my PC...

    Increase WiFi Speed for 4k streaming

    Unless of course using it solves the problem, in which case there is nothing but benefit!

    Increase WiFi Speed for 4k streaming

    Tech 9 asking for help assumes that the person offering help knows what they are talking about. Opinions which are completely incorrect are not helpful, they just waste everyone's time. If you read on, you will see that your 'help' is not only wrong but completely off the mark! In the meantime...

    Increase WiFi Speed for 4k streaming

    Thanks for your feedback. Tech 9 I'm sorry, but you are way off the mark! 4K is reporting 102.3 Mb when it stutters (the max. of the TV ethernet). Most of the time the average is 40Mb. 10Gb is NOT required! I suspect that 200Mb would be a more reasonable figure to deal with the occasional max...

    Increase WiFi Speed for 4k streaming

    My TV ethernet is limited to 100MHz which is too slow for uncompressed 4K movies! I have tried using WiFi instead, but this is being limited to 25Mb on the 5Ghz with only my TV being connected, therefore making ANY 4K movie continually stutter. While I am still waiting the for advertised WiFi 6...

    RT-AX86U slow LAN speed?

    I am streaming on my home intranet using only Serviio and my TV. There are no other devices being used by the network when streaming movies. Online streaming use heavy compression to get reliable lower bitrates which is why the content looks so bad when compared to uncompressed 4k! Pandora0001...

    RT-AX86U slow LAN speed?

    I am experiencing a similar speed problem. The system status indicates my WAN and connected LAN are at 1Gbps. My PC realtek device shows 1Gbps and yet my media playback to my TV is being limited to 100Mbps which means some 4k movies experience stuttering due to the bandwidth being strangled...

    Can't Find Asus RP-AX56. Recommend an alternative.

    It has become available in the UK but only in limited amounts and not yet in black. Because of limited availability, the price is ridiculous! It would be cheaper to purchase three RP-AX56's to use as repeaters only. Asus support do not reply, and their shop just states the product is not yet...

    Apologies, further searching found this explanation... https://www.snbforums.com/threads/tx-rx-rates-only-showing-on-wireless.30704/ Look before you leap! Case closed.

    Asus RT-AX58U

    Hi I am trying to work out a problem with my TV not being seen by my media streamer. All my devices are hardwired except for my phones and tablet which are WiFi connected. If I view the client listing I see the hardwired device with TXRate and RXRate columns. None of my hard wired devices list a...

    Asus RT-AX58U Turn Off Wifi

    Thanks to zero7ones for a straightforward response to a straightforward question. This method also preserves the internet connection lost when following the previous recommendation I followed. L&Ld take note: this is how to answer a question - with a factual response that resolves the issue...

    Asus RT-AX58U Turn Off Wifi

    As reported elsewhere Merlin software for this router has a fundamental problem that locks it up when you make a single change to the defaults. Unless this software has a WiFi on/off capability there is no point in suggesting something that won't answer my question. If I don't need to turn off...

    Asus RT-AX58U Turn Off Wifi

    Regarding your question all my system is hard wired, so turning off the wireless should not disable the internet, but it does, more software bugs: go figure!

    Asus RT-AX58U Turn Off Wifi

    The purpose of turning them off is to see what signals I am getting on other repeaters. Whatever the reason, there should be simple setting on a device that I have paid for when compared to EVERY ISP router that I have had for the past ten years. Not to have one is just proving to me that I have...
