    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3006.102.2 is now available for Wifi 7 devices

    I have turned MLO off for now. I think I will wait until some additional releases and or fixes happen before I spend a weekend on it figuring out how MLO works and what I need to change in my home network. Having 10g to my QNAP NAS is great....

    MLO Network Name

    ...of the new iPhone 16 as I use an S24U Ultra, the wife has an iPhone 15 Pro (no WiFi 7) and that seems to happily ping about the Smart Connect radios as needed. I do find my S24U will disconnect for a few seconds and then reconnect again, occasionally. It used to disconnect and need to be...

    2G connection keeps randomly disappearing, 5G works ok

    The entire 2G part (smart connect off) network just disappears, no error logs related to that, but sometimes i also get these: Nov 15 04:15:18 ovpn-client1[2854]: AEAD Decrypt error: bad packet ID (may be a replay): [ #323033 ] -- see the man page entry for --no-replay and --replay-window for...

    How do I configure asus smartconnect RT-BE92U kicking off devices from 6ghz

    ...or put my computer to sleep and come back, it is on the 5ghz band and not the 6 ghz band. I have the default configuration enabled for Smart Connect rule but I want to know what I should change so it makes my laptop switch to 6 ghz more often. For reference, when I have the problem, I use my...

    GT-AX600 Smart Connect, MIMO, WiFi Agile Multiband etc.

    I just bought the GT-AX6000 and flashed it with Merlin 388.2_2. I upgraded from RT-AC68U. I tried various configurations of Smart Connect (default rules, custom rules), MIMO, WiFi Agile Multiband but am not getting any consistent client connections on either 2.4G or 5G. By that I mean client...

    Smart Band Steering

    ...turning the laptop off and positioned myself close to the router. The laptop stayed on the 2.4 Ghz band, so it does appear that the Smart Connect feature is not so smart after all. I'm going to switch back to manually-controlled bands, and so that none of my devices connect to the 2.4 GHz...

    Samsung 5Ghz becomes 2.4 GHz

    @Sweden how is the WiFi configured on the router? If you are using Smart Connect that may be a likely cause since the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz use the same SSID name (and if I remember right same password). Disable/turn off Smart Connect and give each WiFi band a unique name then make sure to connect the...

    RT-AX86U (AX5700) router dropping smart home devices every few weeks but Wi-Fi still works

    ...Guest Network #1 and Guest Network #2. No difference. Enable and Disable "Access Intranet" on Guest Network #2. No difference. Disabled Smart Connect Rule. Also tried Disabling Roaming Assistant for the 2.4 GHz band. No difference in using latest stock firmware or Asuswrt-Merlin. Currently on...

    Asus Smart Connect switch dont work

    ...perpetual beta firmware. The same for MU-MIMO, OFDMA, TurboQAM, 160MHz wide channel on 5GHz band, etc. And with your 100Mbps ISP line Smart Connect perhaps works well because you may not be able to tell the difference between 2.4GHz and 5GHz connected clients. Wireless N at 2.4GHz can do...

    Asus BE98 - 10GB WIFI throughput settings

    All your setting are on Auto anyway. Leave Smart Connect settings at Default as well. You are not getting above ~1.7Gbps to any single 5GHz Wi-Fi 6 client and perhaps above ~3.5Gbps to any single 6GHz Wi-Fi 7 client no matter what settings you try. Possible close to the router only at signal...

    12V ASUS router with the longest 2.4GHz WiFi range

    So I tested with the AX4200Q as the main router and my old AX1800S as the mesh node. Still that smart bulb keeps dropping. I even reset that smart bulb. The AX1800S is about 5 meters away from the smart bulb. Still no luck. This is getting to be a headache. I think these "dumb" smart devices...

    Smart Band Steering

    I have smart connect turned off, but my SSID's are both the same. Appears to be no issue in my devices shifting between frequencies depending on how weak/strong the signal is.

    I think my BE98 might be dying?! (Edit: It's fine)

    ...'Access Points' for each radio on MLO if I looked in WiFiMan. I noticed that the MLO network was named with the same SSID as the Smart Connect network, as such I had 2 AP's for each radio, with the exception of 5GHz-1. Now I've set it up properly (or at least I think I have!) I only have 1...

    Clarification about client isolation and subnets

    I had problems getting my Alexa/Amazon devices to connect to my ASUS AX86 and AX88Pro. After dumbing down all the WiFi settings (smart connect, beam forming, WPA2 Only , fixed WiFi channel, intranet yes/no ) nothing seemed to help until I determined that DNS security seemed to be the root...

    MLO Network Name

    I changed over to this. At first the iphone wifi settings told me not to do this though. I turned off and on wifi and that message went away. It's still the same ip range. I think the Apple current releases have some wifi issues anyway.

    Remote connection with CG-NAT

    The common technique is that your smart devices in France will have created a connection with a server, and they'll do just enough to keep that connection alive. Then when you log in, you'll either log in traversing that server (acting as a proxy) or the server will notify the remote device to...

    Smart Band Steering

    Not really. Its just common sense to disable Smart Connect as a troubleshooting step when one is having issues of 5Ghz clients connecting to 2.4Ghz when using Smart Connect. For my usage, I turn it off and assign different SSID's and passwords to each Wifi band due to past issues similar to...

    ASUS GT-BE98 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_34372 - 2024/04/23

    No I havn't. It looks like smart connect can not be used together with MLO.
