    Internet keeps going down

    I have experienced similar problems. The first step is to ping the gateway. I use a batch file to do this: The alternative is to find the LAN IP of the gateway via the DOS command line: ipconfig and ping the gateway IP. If this is not successful, then you must first start here and resolve...

    Signature Hyperlink

    I understand. It's unfortunate that a few bad apples have to spoil things for the rest. Maybe in the future there will be the possibility of enabling this feature for the good members of the community. This is a good website and we appreciate the work that goes into keeping it up.

    How to block these 2 addresses through the router firewall?

    My response was to address the OP's original question of how to block to specific URLs. While it may be the case that there are other considerations of solving the MS-Privacy issue, I believe that we have addressed the original question of how to block two URLs in the router. I do not presume...

    Any downside to this config?

    Unless there is a physical reason why Ethernet can not be connected, it is worth the time and effort to properly run an Ethernet cord to the TV, because it is a bandwidth intensive device. I have done 300ft Ethernet runs. If you own your home then this option is that much more attractive. If...

    How can I connect to my NAS drive on another router?

    Ni Hao ma. I connect my NAS to the LAN. If I am outside the LAN and need file from the NAS , I remotely (SSH tunnel) open a port that is forwarded to NAS. You can also leave the port forwarded to the NAS full time, but I prefer to open / close the port as needed. Would this work for you...

    RT-AC68U

    "the Router is not able to ping to the IP camera" Does this mean that your are logged into the router (SSH or Telnet), the camera is non-responsive to ping commands? Are you able to port-forward to any of your desktops (RDP)?

    The 5Ghz was somehow disabled and I would like to re-enable it. Not sure how it could perform a 5GHz site survey with radio off. I tried toggling the 'Enable radio' button, however, the radio is indicated to be off. Any suggestions or questions to diagnose and turn on the radio would...

    Problem when one computer is connected by Ethernet to the router

    I have upgrade two T-Mobile cellspots to become RT-AC68Us and have not seen these problems. I am certain that if you called T-Mobile (assuming you are a customer in good-standing), they would swap it out for a good one. Restore the original firmware: http://tinyurl.com/asuscellspot
