    [DSL-AC68U] AsusWrt Merlin builds for DSL routers

    i never had an ac86U, guessing thats a typo. What i am trying to do is negate the need to have two or three devices running, the wifi range on the DSL AC88U is excellent and all i need to use upstairs is a GB switch to get the LAN ports (connected via powerlines to downstairs), if merlin could...

    New RT-AC86U starting from scratch

    From what I have experienced thus far, I have had top speeds and not experienced any drop outs. So can I just 'move" the Asus as it is without having to change anything ?..I'm not sure what you mean by 'put it into DMZ' are there other tweaks I have to do. Will I be able to keep the Asus in a...

    New RT-AC86U starting from scratch
