    RT-AC87U AiMesh via ethernet backhaul

    Hi All, I think I already know that the answer to my question is a 'No', though thought I'd ask, to be sure: I have an old AC-87U, that I am aware cannot be added as a node in AiMesh (to my AX-86S), due to the 5ghz antenna used. However, is there any workaround of setting it up via ethernet...

    AX86U range compared to my old AC87U

    Hi All. Will the range of a AX86U be as good as or better than my AC87U? I've had my AC87U For many many years and it has been great. The key reason for buying it was the range. I live in a 100year+ old house with solid walls which really challenges wifi signals. I'm considering a AX86U but I'm...

    5G becomes open after power loss (AC87U)

    After a power loss, sometimes (honestly, looks like most of the times) my Asus AC87U router losses it's password protection for 5G (but not for 2G), and becomes open. Interestingly, inside of the router settings I see all the buttons set on wpa2-personal and the password is set up. Up until now...

    Weird Network Behaviour with LAN Port 1 on AC87U

    Hi friends, I've owned an AC87U for almost 2 years now, and for the most part it has been a great experience, other than the 5G starting to drop about a year ago. However, since I don't want to change just now to a Wifi 6 router based on the posts I read on snb.com I've been trying to deal with...

    Hey folks, First post here with newly account created, but long time reader. I'm setting up OpenVPN and I've been able to do so with Policy Rules targeting just one of my clients. After such a simple and success scenario I decided to try the same for my TV as sometimes IPTV gets somewhat...

    Repeater antenna question

    My base router is an Asus AC87U, and I'm using an AC68U as a repeater. Works pretty well; the AC68U reports "Link rate: 234 Mbps, RSSI: -58 dBm" and we get up to 60 mbps (of our 200mbps) through it. The AC87U is in the guest house/office, with just 1 ethernet client, and the AC68U is in the...
