    How to map logical ports to the actual physical LAN port of the AX88U

    Does (Int switch port: 3) (Logical Port: 3) is the same as the actual Physical port 3 on the outside of the AX88U router?

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    I cannot return it and it is always good to have a router handy as a backup, it is already a sunk cost

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    Another option is to buy a third party 5G Router, but they are more than $500, without any of the Asus I have, I would have gone for that, but I have too much invested already in Asus infrastructure.

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    I don't play games, I don't need inbound traffic, I don't need public IP, my use is very basic, WFH mostly, Zoom, Cisco Webex, Teams meetings, etc. I haven't noticed any major performance impact with the double NAT compared to Frontier. As a matter of fact, CGNAT and no public IP, it is a little...

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    The problem with AP mode is that I have no access to any configuration on the TMHI gateway, I cannot change the DHCP, or have fixed IPs, etc., I know that with AP mode I will not have double NAT, and it will be a cleaner implementation, but it is so limited

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    Correct, Frontier I am waiting for the contract to expire in the next 6 months, so no big deal no dual WAN. the 5G gateway (TMHI), you can't change anything, super limited, there are some scripts out there that allow me to turn off wifi, so it is being use as a modem, it has only 1 device...

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    I am aiming at the MOCA solution, Dual WAN disabled, I hope it will be fine now, it seems normal for T-Mobile 5G internet to have some micro outages during the night, usually just one around 2-3am, tower maintenance, or something like that, I don't use the internet a that time, so no big deal...

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    The problem is the following: I am switching to 5G Home Internet (cellular), there is only one location that gets the best signal, the main router AX88U is at an opposite location from the 5G gateway's location. Even though the 5G gateway has Wifi (it is a router), I have turned it off and I am...

    I will create something and share shortly, does the media bridge AX86U gets an IP address?

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    Thank you, I have disabled Dual WAN and will test tonight. Regarding your previous comment on the Media Bridge, I think I have to change it from Repeater to Media bridge, and the AX88U will be the only wired client, I don't need the additional Wifi signals the Repeater generates.

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    I thought about adding a smart plug to the MOCA power supply adapter and to the ISP gateway and schedule reboots, but I did some troubleshooting early morning today, because it always happens at night, not every night, but every other night, this is the summary: The AX88U is configured in Dual...

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    I am having some issues with the LAN port of the Sagemcom 5688W (T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway), nothing to do with the MOCA solution (described below), it seems to be LAN port related based on other user's comments. The port becomes dormant at some point, it seems to be a bug. I decided to...

    Is there a way with the Asus/Merlin FW to get a notification, email or text when the main WAN link is down?

    I get all sort of notifications from the Asus iOS App when new devices connect to the network, but none when the WAN link is down, thank you

    Is it possible to build a Wifi Mesh with a different brand of Router?

    Thank you, the Returns note was regarding the Asus brand, I misunderstood the comment, the ScreenBeam are working great, it is almost like an Ethernet cable, it is a shame I didn't know about this MOCA technology, I have heard of it, but because of my bad experience with PowerLink I thought they...
