    How to test speed?

    The SB6183 website says "speeds up to 686 Mbps" and also says "The SB6183 is best for internet speed plans up to 300 Mbps." :D Maybe I need a new one to take full advantage of it, SB8200 has 2 gigbit ports so should be enough, and bonus is can have two separate home networks, Amazon has it for...

    Thanks for the advice. I have very basic setting and no script so far. Is it good idea to set up auto reboot every day/week?

    can't login/ssh to router

    I've rebooted and it's come back. I have about 40 devices but most of them are wifi bulbs/plugs. How do I check for things that could leads to the router run out of memory? This is the only time I notice this happened in recently a few months.

    block internet access from webUI?

    Yes this is risk one. It is probably fixed... I did remember it pops up and ask for permission, which I declined.

    block internet access from webUI?

    Could you explain more details specifically what kind of risks? I only use app rarely when at home since I don't expose webui to external. And most of time I am using webui, just for this blocking feature I found it is so convenient in app but yet to find an easy way in webui. Thanks.

    block internet access from webUI?

    From the asus router iOS app, in devices list, I can click a device and block internet access. It is very convenient when needed. 1) In the webui, I can still see there is still tx/rx for that device, so the blocking from app is not working? 2) Is there such quick way in webUI (not MAC...

    access point questions

    ah, didn't know I can change hostname there. I knew the dhcp static ip and /jffs/config/dnsmasq.conf.add in main router but seems those are not available on AP. Where are those hostnames saved? Is there a way to change it via command line? Thanks

    access point questions

    Thanks. Where to manually change hostname on AP? Didn't find from the web UI.

    access point questions

    I have one AP running with different SSID and password than the main router. All devices are config to use main router SSID/password and connect to main router. When I login to the AP I see a subset of the devices (21 out of 30) in the client list as wired connection, is this expected? Is it...

    can't find AiMesh node AC68U

    No not using any backup config, since there is no need to config node at all. I am hesitate to do anything on my main router as this time since internet access is crucial for the whole family :p

    can't find AiMesh node AC68U

    Thanks! I may try your suggestion. Is this the stock firmware? https://www.asus.com/Networking/RTAC68U/HelpDesk_BIOS/ I can update it over web ui, right? Switch between Merlin and stock should be safe? or need some special steps?
