    My country censors the internet; Does a VPN client work well on dual wan setup?

    Hi My knowledge of networking is limited. I apologize if my questions sound immature. About four months ago, I bought an RT-AX88U, and I love this router. It's easy to set up and works reliably. I live in Iran, and the internet censorship is horrible here. Because of that, we use VPN. I have...

    No WiFi after power lost.

    Hi, Have you experienced such behavior that after losing power, the router wakes up but the WiFi network does not work on it? Sometimes 2.4g and sometimes 5g, sometimes no LAN communication... Resetting the device or restarting does not help. The only thing I noticed that worki was turning off...

    Slow Internet Speed Test Shown on Adaptive QoS Page

    I just noticed that the QoS page of my new AX88U has a speed test, don't think my old AC87U had this. Anyway I thought this would be the best speed test as it's on the router, but it's showing almost half my connection speed. Anyway my FTTP connection is sold as 900/100 and via command line...

Typical conditions on...

    AX88U high RAM usage, maybe?

    Strange thing happening with router

    Hi All, Before I upgraded to the latest firmware 386.4 I had 386.3_2 on my AX88U and all of a sudden I lost internet connection. Found that the NTP server stopped syncing which is strange because the last time it happened I changed my ethernet cable and all was fine last year and a half. So...

    Hello! I have an ASUS RT-AX88U and an ASUS RT-AC5300 router. Both of them support the link aggregation, and both of them are supported by AsusWRT Merlin.

    Solved 6in4 IPv6 stops working after a while on AX88U

    I bought an AX-88U to replace my old router. I use 6in4 provided by HE's tunnelbroker to enable IPv6 on my LAN. I have been using HE's 6in4 for a long time with my old router and it was able to go on for months without interruption. Now with my new AX88U, IPv6 connection stops working after 3-5...

    RT-AX88u web access and iOS app problem

    Hello, In the last two iterations of AX88U firmware I am unable to reach my router remotely (neither via web access or iOS app). It was working perfectly before. Any suggestions? P.S. All other things connected to AX88U like Philips Hue hub or Netatmo hub are still connecting normally via...

    Weird connection speed issue over wired network RT-AX88U

    I have an RT-AX88U and I am running Merlin 386.2_6 Koolshare edition. The problem is that on my main PC I am not getting full download speeds. Every other device at home is getting faster speeds than my main gaming pc. I am not sure where the bottleneck is. When I run speedtest on the router...

    Ethernet Aggregation with AX88U and 2014 Mac Mini Server?

    I'm considering a AX86U mainly because of the 2.5g ethernet. However, I may consider a AX88U but this does not have 2.5g ethernet. It does however have Ethernet Aggregation. I've never used anything with this before. My Mac Mini server has two ethernet ports (one via USB) and the OS allows me to...

    AX88U v386.2_6 - Guest WIFI SSID breaks WAN connectivity

    Hello everyone, Finally, I'm able to reproduce a bug that pretty much happens in every 2021 release for AX88u. I wasn't able to pinpoint it, so I was using an old version (from more or less one year ago). I have an SSID for 2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz with the same name, lets say "MYWIFI", without WIFI6...

    2.4GHz network stops with RT-AX56U as Mesh Node

    I have just upgraded my AC68U to a AX56U, all seemed to work fine at first, but then I find that a number of 2.4GHz devices can no longer connect to the internet. My original configuration has a AX88U as the main router and the AC68U as the node which worked fine, swapping the old AC68U back...
