    RT-AX56U V6 PLUS(Japan) map-e port mismatch problem?

    Some ISPs in Japan use a convoluted solution to deliver IPv4 over IPv6 called V6Plus. I have the RT-AX56U which has an option for V6 but when this is selected you get a MAP-E port mismatch error or a Map server did not reply response. So I'm stuck on the much slower PPPoE connection. Is there...

    Any reason not to upgrade from RT-AX86U to RT-AX86U PRO?

    Couple days ago, got a new RT-AX86U PRO router for my parents’ house. Speed-wise is smooth and for home entertaining connections were pretty nice. The latest firmware 3.0.0.4.388.21074 got an upgrade somehow. Netflix streaming seems without congestion compared to my old router back at home...

    Is is unusual for Asus to not release a router firmware update for over 2 years?

    The device in question is RT-AC59U V2. It seems like an updated version of RT-AC58U but rereleased in 2019/2020 in certain markets. The last firmware update for then a 1 year old new-to-market device was back in Oct'20. It's Dec'22, and I'm sure a lot of security vulnerabilities would have...
