    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    I agree the transmitters are not all identical. Neither is the user requirement. If it's interference, it must be pretty sophisticated, as my 2.4 GHz ESP devices maintain a consistent connection as soon as I reverted from the Asus router to the Vodafone router. In fact, on the first full...

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    Well, I suppose an RMA is one solution, which I accepted. However, my ideal solution is a reliable 2.4 GHz connection with the Asus router. They have not proposed anything. I connected the antennas before using it. The 2.4 GHz does work, however my ESP devices will usually disconnect...

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    The Asus support in the UK is less helpful. After hearing of my 2.4 GHz issue, they merely asked me to return the router. I sent them links to numerous forum posts with Asus customers complaining about the 2.4 GHz and asked them if Asus have any routers with reliable 2.4 GHz. He did not...

    US lawmakers urge probe of WiFi router maker TP-Link over fears of Chinese cyber attacks

    Aren't quite a few of the router manufacturers Chinese and therefore if there is a political risk with TP Link, it would also apply to several other manufacturers ? I'd also imagine my ISP supplied router is designed & made by some Chinese company. The list of non-Chinese router makers...

    Should connecting to routers be this difficult ? GT-AX6000 set as AP & ISP router (unwanted redirect).

    I've also had the redirect with no Asus routers plugged in, including at one point where both Asus routers were on the floor, not plugged in. I remember looking around to check when getting a redirect. Perhaps I needed to reboot the Vodafone router to clear things. In my opinion, Asus...

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    As far as I can tell, we have Asus, then a few Chinese brands and the selection is pretty thin after that. I must look into the Synology. I'm also asking ASUS UK if they have any models where the 2.4 GHz band will maintain a stable connection. I don't expect a good answer, but I have...

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    I'd like to keep this thread on the topic of a non-Asus router to replace my Asus. There have been some interesting & helpful ideas posted already. [There are several threads discussing the 2.4 GHz issue on Asus AX routers, including 2 updated within the last week & numerous older ones. See...

    Should connecting to routers be this difficult ? GT-AX6000 set as AP & ISP router (unwanted redirect).

    Thank you. I've got an Asus AC and an AX router. The AX router goes back to Amazon tomorrow. Prior to that, for several years, I've had the ISP router then the Asus AC router connected to that. The Asus AC router has the DHCP server enabled and it starts with an IP of 192.168.3.1 I never...

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    I didn't quote one, but the Asus router which is going back to Amazon cost £197. So I'll say 0~£250. Preferably under £200.

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    Thank you very much for the recommendations everyone. I will need to do some research into Synology etc. I was looking at the TP-Link Omada. If I have a hardware controller, is it correct that the only option comes with just one ethernet port ? I'd prefer to have more. OK, I can use a...

    Rog Rapture GT-AX6000: IoT devices continuosly disconnected

    I've set it to 802.11.n and again it was unreliable. Run for a while then dropped 1 out of 2 devices. On a router reboot, neither 2.4 GHz device would reconnect. I think I've tried all the ideas from the multiple threads on Asus AX 2.4 GHz problems. So I have now removed the Asus GT-AX6000...

    Should connecting to routers be this difficult ? GT-AX6000 set as AP & ISP router (unwanted redirect).

    Thank you. I think the Asus routers cause the redirect, when connected to the network even with a different IP address for the Asus routers. typically 192.168.3.1 or 192.168.3.2 Ideally, I would like to find a way of completely preventing this redirect, as when swapping between routers, it's...

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    Whilst my Vodafone ISP router works, I can't stand the user interface and it gives slower 5 GHz WiFi connections than the Asus. However, the Vodafone 2.4 GHz is far more reliable. My earlier "owned" router is an Asus AC66U. Getting old now. I have plenty of CAT5e/6 cable installed. The...

    What's a good NON-Asus router to replace a GT-AX6000?

    My Asus GT-AX6000 will have to go back. Even Asus UK advise this. What's a good NON-ASUS replacement ? [Not for discussion in this topic, but reasons for return= Unreliable 2.4 GHz connections. (i) I have the problem and have seen enough other threads discussing the issue here on...

    Should connecting to routers be this difficult ? GT-AX6000 set as AP & ISP router (unwanted redirect).

    Thank you. I have an "automatic DNS". I don't believe I have SecureNet. My account website states "There's nothing we can show you" when I go to the security settings page. I can't find anything for SecureNet on the router settings. The words SecureNet do not appear in any of the sign...

    Should connecting to routers be this difficult ? GT-AX6000 set as AP & ISP router (unwanted redirect).

    I set the GT-AX6000 to AP mode. The GT-AX6000 IP was set to 192.168.3.1 when it was my sole router, as my CCTV cameras were previously using that subnet with an earlier dual router set up. I didn't choose to change this when going to new 2 router system. If setting this as an AP forces a...

    Should connecting to routers be this difficult ? GT-AX6000 set as AP & ISP router (unwanted redirect).

    Due to problems with my 2.4 GHz devices on my GT-AX6000, I have reverted to the Vodafone ISP router. I am using the GT-AX6000 as an access point for some final testing. 1 Despite having the Asus IP set to 192.168.3.1, when I reconnect the Vodafone ISP router & enter 192.168.1.1, it insists...

    Rog Rapture GT-AX6000: IoT devices continuosly disconnected

    I look forward to hearing your result. As far as I can tell, I've tried most of these settings on my GT-AX6000 & it does not fix my problem with ESP8266 devices on 2.4 GHz.

    ROG Rapture GT-AX6000 Drops Arduino ESP8266 connections on 2.4 GHz

    To recap: I have 3 ESP8266 devices that have worked reliably for 5 years before getting my GT-AX600. To increase my sample size for diagnostics, I also did some work on the 4th, which is further away & always used to drop connections occasionally. I then rewired the third so it sits near...

    Rog Rapture GT-AX6000: IoT devices continuosly disconnected

    I hope you get some answers ! I've noticed my previously reliable ESP8266 devices have been disconnecting ever since I switched to the GT-AX6000. Internet searches haven't found a solution for me. There's a suggestion that it's a known issue. I've tried various settings. I'm now...
