    wireless between two apartments

    BRIDGING TWO POINTS If is unclear if there is an option to run an Ethernet cable. If yes then this is the preferred solution. If not, then you must deal with the attenuation caused by walls and other obstacles. A pair of directional transmitters (Ubiquiti comes to mind) would be more...

    External drive for backing up NAS -- USB3 vs eSATA

    Don't forget that a disaster (fire, lightning, hurricane, flood) can wipeout a facility / building and that a backup site for important data in a very distant site (far enough so that the same hurricane is unlikely to wipe out the backup) is the better defense.

    How to assign static LAN IP

    Is it possible to do this from the command line? I would like to be able to program routers with devices to be pinned to static LAN IPs.

    How to assign static LAN IP

    I would like to assign static LAN IPs to certain MAC addresses. I've done this with DD-WRT and imagine that it can be done with OpenWRT. I could not find an example. If you have done this before please provide an example. Thank you.

    Port Forwarding Troubleshooting

    The streaming session invoked with this procedure was significantly better! I suspect that if it was solely done explicitly over either TCP or UDP (preferable) the transmission would be optimized.

    Port Forwarding Troubleshooting

    Connected to xfinity wifi hostpot and streams (very poorly) through the port. Thank you. I think that your suggestion to explicitly set VLC's RTSP over TCP may improve the streaming. " You should try to explicitly set VLC to RTSP over TCP" -How is that best done? in the .xpsf file? or is...

    Port Forwarding Troubleshooting

    Observations are provided to address the good suggestions & questions from the community. I am able to stream from the LAN, can I conclude that the problem is solely with forwarding the inbound traffic (port forwarding)? OBSERVATION 1: successful streaming from LAN The following .xpsf...

    feature request: WAN/DMZ to mac address

    Hopefully, the OP has pinned the MAC to an LAN IP, so that particular device can be addressed. This has been solved and should be closed out.

    Port Forwarding Troubleshooting

    Goal: forward WWAN port (554) traffic to LAN device pinned at 192.168.8.110. Used this site as a guide: https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/114093/ Not able to reach the device from the WAN side: I manually configured VLC's .xpsf file to use my WWAN IP 24.120.XX.YY:554 as shown above...

    Remote Access to RT-AC68U Web GUI via SSH Tunnel

    [SOLVED] @RMerlin : Thank you for the actionable suggestion. Enabling SSH port forwarding on the Administration -> System page was the missing key that solved the original issue. Because I have setup many systems in the past with DD-WRT, I could \ should have reasoned that it was a setting...

    Remote Access to RT-AC68U Web GUI via SSH Tunnel

    Attempts to view the Asus RT-AC68U GUI fails, as well as any other WWAN website. I am hoping that those that have had success in the past will be able to pick out any setup errors or pose a diagnostic question.

    New Home Network

    I would try to wire everything to one central hub. The hub should have lots of power for POE devices (Access Points / Cameras). CAT5/6 is really inexpensive so there is really no such thing as 'overwiring'. I would pay particular attention to running wiring to locations where a TV /...

    Remote Access to RT-AC68U Web GUI via SSH Tunnel

    [SOLVED] Has anyone had success remotely accessing OpenWRT-Merlin 378.55 through an Internet Explorer (IE) SSH connection? In the past I have had success accessing the web DD-WRT web GUI and believe that this can be done through OpenWRT-Merlin. Attempts to view the Asus RT-AC68U GUI fails, as...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 378.55 is now available

    @Merlin: how can we keep this and similar future threads focused on observations that will help improve the next release? Given that this is up to 32 pages, there must be a better way.

    ZoneEdit DDNS diagnostic

    BACKGROUND About 8 years ago, I had setup ZoneEdit to provide DDNS for a .com and .us domain in the same account. DDNS was working well for both until a few months ago. The .us domain continues to work, however, the problem is with the .com domain. Now that I have a little time, I would like to...

    [SOLVED] Asus RT-N16 Bricked because unplug during flashing

    It was necessary to replace the RT-N16 capacitor in both my devices. At the time, I was fortunate because I had a senior EE with a study hand and the right lab equipment.
