    RT-AC68U: how to release WAN ip address

    I tried to turn off the WAN interface and it did not work. I used to have a TP-LINK router and it has an option to release the WAN IP. The Verizon router also has that option. Just wonder why ASUS router does not have one (that works). Well, it's not the end of the world though because...

    Repeated login attempts/hacking attack?

    Thanks for reminding me it's the SSH server. For now I still need SSH access but will remember to disable it. BTW, do you think changing SSH port to something else like 40 would alleviate the attack?

    Some strange VLAN settings

    Ah, I missed the last sentence "These don't actually exist" so thought the VLANs were mis-configured. Thanks for pointing that out.
