    Asus Router app, Account Binding.

    The one benefit I had read and unsuccessfully tried to use was transferring a registered Asus DDNS name from an old router to a new one. However it didn't work for me. So I had to reinitialize the old router, claim the name, unregister it, then hurry up and claim the name on the new router.

    Do you mind posting your final working script? I've been having trouble with something similar. Thanks.

    Sending Email fails with "05 May" date/time in header

    Not sure this will fix your issue, but have you tried the router date feature in amtm? It will set the clock to the last known date time before the ntp server is up and running

    Looking for feedback: Anyone considering AiCloud important to them?

    Yes. What I was trying to say that if those two features were replaced with a helper configuration page, it might help transition those who might use those features.

    Looking for feedback: Anyone considering AiCloud important to them?

    That's really interesting. It seems to me, those two services would be the easiest to replace with a Merlin Addon that used open source methods to secure the connection instead of the router admin password. But I don't know enough what the client would need to be to replace the asus app for...

    Looking for feedback: Anyone considering AiCloud important to them?

    You may want to also poll the use of WAN login to the router. Seems like that is as big of an attack surface as AiCloud IMO.

    Malware damaging ASUS routers?

    Seems ironic to me that their recommendation was to use the Asus app when it was that very app which was leaking the router login credentials to the dns poisoned rogue websites.

    Extend wifi signal to garage

    For just one cam, I suggest just trying an inexpensive TP Link Range Extender. https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/range-extender/ You can try plugging it in at to various locations to get the best performance. And, if it doesn't work, you can return it.

    Best-practices for replacing ASUS RT-AX86U with ASUS RT-AX86U Pro (=moving everything from the existing router to a replacement one)?

    Two tools I used: 1) Network client list and DHCP reservation lists can be selected, copied and pasted directly from their web page into Excel. 2) Microsoft Edge extension called SingleFile can be used to save each config page individually. If you click to show hidden password, those will be...

    WiFi 6 router optimization guide

    "In normal Wi-Fi environment with other networks around and IoT devices for maximum stability and compatibility I would set this router this way:" I was under the impression that maximum compatibility vs maximum performance was a trade-off one has to make with network settings. I guess I'm...

    WiFi 6 router optimization guide

    I read that post as here are the settings for maximum capability with IoT devices. That is, what you should try if you have issues. OP, I thought, was asking about performance settings to try first before falling back to more conservative settings.

    WiFi 6 router optimization guide

    Be interesting what the experts say, but here is where my 5GHz settings differ (other than wifi channel and bandwidths): Protected Management Frames: Capable Multi-User MIMO: Disable OFDMA/802.11ax MU-MIMO: Disable Universal Beamforming: Disable

    Home Network Upgrade with Asus BT10 (after exploring BE88u) & AX-58U as AiMesh Node - Inputs ?

    I thought we were specifically talking about chanel 36, 160Mhz. If there is a dfs issue, it just drops down to 36, 80Mhz. Your response seems to discuss other configurations that would be more problematic, not the advantage of using 4x streams @ 160Mhz on channel 36 as a backhaul channel. As I...

    Home Network Upgrade with Asus BT10 (after exploring BE88u) & AX-58U as AiMesh Node - Inputs ?

    I can't figure out why this is so bad. Worst case, the backhaul temporarily drops back to the settings you say are superior, 80Mhz. Best case, better performance 90% of the time.

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Just going by what the status report says about the "great" connection. Not exactly sure about straight line distance, but they are are different floors and not right on top of each other. It's not sure how it's QOS when all clients work well and I now get service where before there were dead...

    RT-AX58U wired backhaul or wireless?

    Theoretically, yes, worst case. In my case, however, I get 4x streams @160Mhz connection to my RT-AX58U wireless AiMesh node. None of my clients get anywhere near that speed, so wireless works good for me.

    New models to be introduced with 3006.102.2

    Seems like a crazy idea. I would have thought they would have built SDN on the existing Guest Network framework. Seems like a simpler transition to me but maybe I am not grasping all the features of SDN.
