    Dual WAN + Dual Firewall

    What if I were to run the router as a subnet router? Would I be able to use "any of the advanced features" of pfSense? Also, curious if anyone knows whether the VLANs with the 3.0.0.6 firmware work only in router mode, or in AP mode as well? If I run AiMesh, do the the VLANs translate to other...

    Dual WAN + Dual Firewall

    I'm not sure how to do that. The previous version was what ChatGPT spit out lol. If it's not too much trouble, could I ask you to do one for me please.

    Dual WAN + Dual Firewall

    Sounds like what I am looking for, thanks @Ranger802004. How would I go about setting this up? Would I create a WAN-event file under /jffs/scripts/ and use the code below? #!/bin/sh case "$1" in wan0_down) # Commands to execute when primary WAN goes down service firewall...

    Dual WAN + Dual Firewall

    Got it! Thanks @Tech9 Is it doable with scripts? Is there a script lurking out there that could do this?

    Dual WAN + Dual Firewall

    Thinking about adding a pf/opnsense firewall/router as VM in Proxmox. I'm concerned that during updates or for any other reason the VM/firewall/router is down, the network will be down. Is it possible for me to enable dual WAN on the Asus router so that when WAN1 is up the Asus router firewall...

    Unbound Unbound + AdGuard Settings

    I'm sure many people are running Unbound with AdGuard on their routers. Curious what everyone is using for their settings for both. Anyone tinker with them or leave them as defaults? I understand the settings will vary based on HW, but what is the consensus? Reason for asking is, I've upgraded...

    YazFi YazFi on Subnet Router

    @bennor thanks for explaining. It looks like the WAN port may be the problem then. Unfortunately, my 2 10G ports are already being used and connecting the subnet routers via 1G LAN ports is not an option due to the 2.5G wired backhaul. So I'm left with the 2.5G WAN port for the connection...

    YazFi YazFi on Subnet Router

    Thanks for the screenshots and the detailed breakdown of your setup. From your suggestion, I disabled Guest Network (GN) #1 and switched to GN#2 and magically, guest devices had internet. Does GN#2 and GN#3 prevent devices from accessing LAN? GN#2/GN#3 don't appear to create new subnets. I...

    YazFi YazFi on Subnet Router

    Thanks guys. So for the sake of troubleshooting, I reset the the subnet router to factory default and reconfigured it as a subnet router. With no scripts running - no YazFi, I setup the guest network. Just vanilla guest network. Even on the vanilla guest network, my devices connected to it are...

    YazFi YazFi on Subnet Router

    Hi @bennor both routers (main and subnet) are AXE16000 running the latest Merlin firmware. Subnet router setup in router mode with static IP. Both routers are connected by wired ethernet in the 2.5G WAN port (port runs as lan port). YazFi is running default settings, no ap isolation, no one...

    YazFi YazFi on Subnet Router

    There have been countless posts on how YazFi doesn't work with AiMesh or with routers in AP mode. But has anyone tried running this script on a subnet router (running in router mode as static IP)? Subnet router is connected to the main router via a wired backhaul. I'm trying to do this at the...

    Unbound Unbound on subnet router

    Thanks @dave14305 and @Tech9 for this. Will stick to Unbound only on the main router.

    Unbound Unbound on subnet router

    I have two routers in my network - a main router and a subnet router. I have Unbound running successfully on the main router. If I run Unbound on the subnet router, will there be any speed or performance benefits for the devices connected to the subnet router resulting from the Unbound cache on...

    Bizarre 2.4GHz Guest Network Issue

    For anyone coming across this - turns out the 2.4GHz was over crowded and preventing other devices from connecting. Reducing the number of clients on 2.4GHz helped.

    Bizarre 2.4GHz Guest Network Issue

    On the Asus AXE16000 router I am having a weird issue. While I think it may a hardware issue and I may need to RMA the router, thought I'd post the question here in case someone has other ideas. Someone was having a similar issue on a different router last year, but a solution for it was not...

    Subnetting w/AXE16000 and MoCA

    Thanks @sfx2000 Yes, I have the 11b turned off. Prefer to keep encryption WPA2 not mixed on 2.4GHz (mixed doesn't play nice with some devices). Too many clients per radio along with too much WiFI overlap is likely the issue. I do have the power turned way down for the 2.4GHz and have some...

    Subnetting w/AXE16000 and MoCA

    About 30, but all of them are never being used all at once, but they are on and connected to the router.

    Subnetting w/AXE16000 and MoCA

    - 60% are WiFi N devices (IoT + Cameras) on 2.4GHz - 5% are WiFi G devices on 2.4GHz - not sure how to handle these old devices (printers) a. have tried keeping them on the same 2.4GHz as the IoT devices b. have also tried setting up a separate WiFi G only network on a separate router for these...

    Subnetting w/AXE16000 and MoCA

    Since I'm going down this rabbit hole, how can I route traffic from a different subnet via VPN running on the router? Is it a different setup for OpenVPN and Wireguard? For example, I have 5 computers in a different subnet, I want only one of the computer's traffic (10.99.80.38) to go through...

    Subnetting w/AXE16000 and MoCA

    I got a good deal on them, hence the bulk purchase. I was exploring enterprise class APs, but PoE and placement was a bit of an issue. Maybe when WiFi 8 rolls around, I'll consider the enterprise grade equipment.
