    CTS/RTS Asus AX86U Pro

    Hi Guys ,Sorry if this has been discussed already. The RTS/CTS setting as it's default is basically set to disabled at 2347. Has anyone played around with this and set it much lower and see if they experienced any difference as obviously this is designed to help or stop any fragmentation of...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.7 is now available

    Pretty much what I thought it's it's exactly the same as doing an Android OS upgrade over time cache and dirty files or corrupt files get left behind and can cause issues or slowness or the handset. I suppose it's more for convenience rather than operation ...It's still best to do an upgrade...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.7 is now available

    So ...a Clean "complete 100%" upgrade means literally doing everything from scratch . So I have essentially performed a 50/50 ....mmm so the same principal like with a mobile phone do a factory reset which wipes everything then you have to install everything from scratch apps the lot or like a...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.7 is now available

I believe...

    Ax88u wireguard issue

    Well to my knowledge it the actual package size obviously the bigger the the packet size the faster more information it can deliver down at one given time..So ideally you want it at the highest possible figure . Having an mtu size a lot lower without it fragmenting means maybe there is a problem...

    Ax88u wireguard issue

    Sounds a good idea 💡 👍from memory it's packet size then you must enter in the header/container which is 28bytes.. So I started at 1500 then worked down bit by bit until no fragmentation then it was bang on 1464 bytes + 28 bytes for the header then you get 1492 with all packets sent and 0 sent...

    Ax88u wireguard issue

    VPN FUSION & VPN DIRECTOR Merlin Firmware

    I'm sure I tried there isn't that what the whole point of VPN director is for you either select the IP of the device directly that you want the VPN to tunnel through or you allowed all devices ??? Otherwise I agree with the above member for all this trouble and time it's far easier to use fusion...

Yes this is were VPN Fusion and using the ASUSwrt app came in very handy you could do all that part via the app that the only thing missing using Merlin software that last peace .

    Hi Thanks for the information makes for a very interesting read and theirs plenty of experimentation for sure sounds great . A little confused with the last comment you made "having your router exposed to allow for interaction with an app just exposes it to more risk. I prefer automation and...

    VPN FUSION & VPN DIRECTOR Merlin Firmware

    Hi Thanks for the information much appreciated 😊..👍 However☝️ we still come back to my original point with fusion you have the option to manually assign per device or you can opt for all devices from the off that is what makes it in my eyes much more appealing to use and it can be all done then...
