    Something Not working correctly with hostname of router screwing up Time Machine

    Is it possible to set host name for a ZenWifi satellite node?

    You can. SSH into the satellite node, verify that nvram get lan_hostname returns the current host name of your satellite node, in your case, ZenWiFi_XT8-C110. Then change the value of this variable by running nvram set lan_hostname=CoolName, finally nvram commit. Then reboot the satellite router.

    ZenWiFi AX (XT8) wireless backhual constantly falls back to 2.4GHhz with abysmal connection speed

    Used to be able to maintain a steady "Good" level 5GHz-2 connection to other XT8 nodes. Now it falls back 2.4GHz all the time dispite restarts, and the security camera connectes to it reports no connection a lot more often. Send the unit back for repair in ASUS's self-service repair service...

    Any way to force an optimisation at a time after automated reboot

    "Poor man's optimization": ssh into the mesh node, and use wl deauthenticate to diconnect the main router.

    router.asus.com not working on MacOS Ventura Safari

    It seems to me that Apple will only use iCloud Private Relay to hide IPs, and only hides the IPs, not block them.

    Apple TV wifi or cable via XT8?

    Depends on your use case. Most things you can do with Wi-Fi, you can do with cable. You get better experience with cable in some cases: Use Apple TV as a Home Hub; Use Apple TV to stream high bitrate content from home servers. However there's also a drawback with cable: when the XT8 that ATV...

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21099 (2022/10/03 )

    After giving it a 1GB swap file, my main router has been running for 4 days. The router usually freezes and restarts within 2 days without a swap file. The usage of the swap file (reported by free) has been growing steadily over the past 4 days. Now it's at 70MB. Fri Oct 14 19:38:03 CST 2022...

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21099 (2022/10/03 )

    I suspect that as well. I created a swap file on an external storage. Now I'm waiting to see if this helps the router run longer, and if that swap file gets used up too.

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21099 (2022/10/03 )

    Yeah I'm having this exact issue. Router crashes a lot more often since the update. /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases is in an tempfs. Maybe something keeps writing to it so it becomes full?

    My Router webpage turned Chinese language and username/password don't work anymore

    I remember that my AX88U defaults to 192.168.50.1. My AX88U did not come with this manual. The default settings for SSIDs in this PDF are different from what is printed on the bottom of my AX88U. I think this might be a manual for an older ASUSWRT.
