    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    On the Internet Status page, there is a line called "Connection Control". And to the right of it there is an option to "Disconnect" and "Reconnect". This is where the IP address can be released and reconnected. This is what I use on FiOS if I need my IP address changed or if I were going to...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    I noticed with the x.91 firmware on my N56U router that an entry in the log keeps popping up where it shows it removed xx number of rules. I see in the settings this is defaulted to 600 seconds. What exactly does this do and should it be set to longer than 600 seconds? I see it can have a max of...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    So is the reservation limit still 64? I have several new cameras coming which will push me over ninety devices on my N56U router at home. The last time I checked I couldn't go past 64 reservations. So I will need to dump some of my reservations to add the cameras. SInce I need to open ports for...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    With mine something is not right with it. I used to use it as my router before swapping my Rt-N56s and making it an AP. When it was a router I had an issue where it would lose the traffic logs for some reason. Which was why I had swapped them a long time ago. Otherwise that N56U seems to work...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    And I've tried that before. I've also used multiple PCs, multiple browsers, Tablets, phones, and a PC with a fresh windows install. None of those had any affect. The result was always the same. The only way it would show up is if I installed an earlier firmware. ANd then everything would show up...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    I've had this issue with one of my N56U routers. My other one is fine and so is my RT-N65U. The issue started a firmware or two ago. If I go back to an earlier firmware the devices show up, but as soon as I install one of the newer ones, it has the issue again. I know in my situation the...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    I'm on the current final Padavan xxx-085 release on both of my N56U boxes and my N65U box. I use one of my N56Us in router mode but the DHCP reservation has a 64 device limit. Is there anyway to increase this limit? I have over 75 devices on my home network. I used to only have half of the...

    OK to use same SSID for 2.4 & 5 GHz?

    My devices roam back and forth between APs and also between frequencies. I'll get 150Mb/s actual throughput(300Mb/s link rate) at 5Ghz and around 120 Mb/s throughput over 2.4Ghz. SO for my laptop and netbooks either one is fine for the speed. For my other wireless devices and bridges I'll notice...

    OK to use same SSID for 2.4 & 5 GHz?

    It's more work to have two separate SSIDs. IN my experience since 5Ghz devices grab 5Ghz first, by making both SSIDs the same, they will fall back to 2.4Ghz if they need to. By only having one SSID it makes things simpler. I only need to have one SSID to enter and one key and I just duplicate...

    OK to use same SSID for 2.4 & 5 GHz?

    I've been running identical SSIDs on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz on multiple APs for years. Most of my wireless devices that are 5Ghz capable grab the 5Ghz first and then will choose 2.4 Ghz if needed. Although the highest signal strength is the main priority. But I've had no problems doing this over the...

    New Asus RT-N65U Dualband Wireless N750 Gigabit Router

    I just ordered one of these RT-N65U routers. I already have two RT-N56U units with one in router mode and one in AP mode. I plan on running the RT-N65U in AP mode to offload some of my 5GHz connections. I'll run the Padavan firmware like with the N56U. So hopefully the RT-N65U will work out well...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    What do you mean by "The network is Flying"? I've always been able to get 900Mb/s+ throughput with this router.

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    Thanks, I updated this weekend to that version and it's working fine on both of my RT-N56Us.

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    I typically install the firmware that is listed as the Full version, but with this new firmware I don't see a Full version listed. Which one should I install? I'm currently on the .068 version of the firmware on my 56U routers.

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    Why does the router need to be rebooted? I think the only time I've rebooted my two N56Us is when I upload a new Padavan firmware. Should I be rebooting mine?

    Roku Launches Zippy New Streamer - Roku 3 Review

    I just saw the review for the Roku 3. It erroneously states that it uses Bluetooth to communicate with the remote. The Roku2 did but the Roku 3 uses Wi-Fi Direct. My Roku 3 is using 5Ghz channel 165 to communicate with the remote. I use the wired connection on my Roku 3 for internet access...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    You still need a password to get into the router. Change the password so the person on wireless can't access the router. Or only use guest Ap and isolate it. Although I don't know for sure if that would not allow access to the router. I only use guest wireless access on my RT-N56U routers to...

    Padavan's Custom Firmware

    On speedtest.net I've always had issues with upload speeds. It seems like it maxes out around 50 to 55Mb/s upload speeds for all the servers in my area. My max upload speed is 70Mb/s and my download is 155Mb/s. I can only find one site to get me close to my max download speed. I'll hit 150Mb/s...
