    How do I check the performance of my router? [RT-AC68U]

    I use my network primarily for Plex streaming (mostly local), torrenting, nothing too major, I only have these amtm addons right now; But at what point will the performanceof the router start to degrade? or is my router powerful enough to not care? I have some cooling fans on the back of it.

    AX88U Pro - Official vs Merlin FW

    I recently got a new AX88U Pro and upgraded to Merlin firmware right away, before setting it up. Everything runs great, but I was wondering if there is a use case for the official Asus firmware.

    ASUS ZenWifi ET8 GNUton Firmware question

    Hi. I am considering getting an ASUS ZenWiFi ET8 mesh system to upgrade from my stand-alone RT-AC86U router.

    Plans to migrate to OpenSSL 3.0?

    The current firmware is using OpenSSL 1.1.1, which already ends support in September 2023. This means that it is no longer possible to get public security updates since last month. I still remember that it took about a year to migrate from OpenSSL 1.0.2 to 1.1.1 in 2019. I know there's so much...
