    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.

    What performance hit - if any - will it have on the other clients connected to the main router if; lets say - 2 wireless Aimesh routers with 8 clients are connected to the main router; versus if those clients were connected directly to the main router? The reason I'm asking is that I have an...

    VPN Performance by Core Assignment

    Does the version of Wireguard that runs on Asus AX routers use one or multiple cores ? If two VPNs (OpenVPN or Wireguard) were in use at the same time on an Asus AX router, would the performance be remarkably different on an RT-AX68U versus an RT-AX86U ?

    RT-AX88U - Is it possible to overclock it?

    I have been searching for a couple of hours now and I haven’t been able to find anything specific for the AX88U. The main reason I am exploring this is, of course, VPN performance. I have 850mbps available but only get about 220 with OpenVPN. What I saw for other models is that you can play...

    Aimesh - Did anyone give up?

    Hi, Just out of curiosity - did anyone decide to give up on their Aimesh endeavors and go all in on something else such as Orbi, Google Wifi or similar? If so, did that improve things? I am in Aimesh hell with daily connectivity issues where I need to reboot the master node to solve things...

    Hi all I'm having a problem where all wifi bands (2&5) are reverting to 20MHz and performance is basically non existant. Rebooting the router puts them back at 80MHz for 5 and 40MHz for 2 and performance is temporarily restored. I seem to be able to trigger this bug by making small changes to...
