    Why Asus can't get the basics right like PPPoE

    I really don't understand. First they screwed up dual wan for years and I am not sure if they ever fixed it, I gave up and bought Synology AC2600 for this purpose which works rock solid. PPPoE on AC68U was also hit and miss and as I can see from Synology AC2600 it was definitely not down to my...

    Trying to rescue my router

    My AC68 (located in another country) slowly dies after about 2 hours to the point I can no longer access it (ddns or vpn) unless I get someone to reboot it. It seems too like I am getting limited internet when I can access it as it runs very slow. I have SmartThings and it shows on my app that...

    Suggestion to add PPPoE testing to router tests

    Hi, Would it be possible to have PPPoE testing added to router tests? With Centurylink using PPPoE on gigabit home connections it is becoming an important feature to have and many routers don't do it well, it would be helpful to have some level of real world testing of this functionality. Thanks,

    Force PAP? pppd Options? Need help/ideas please!

    This is going to be a fairly long one so thanks in advance! I've been trying for 2 weeks now and I can't get my RT-AC86U (Merlin 384.4_2) to connect to the internet. Bit of background - I've recently moved in to rented accommodation and the internet is provided by the landlord. Unfortunately...

    Help setting up VOIP connection with router/VOIP combo box

    Hi All, I don't have much networking experience, so sorry in advance for any mistakes. I just installed a new fiber optic connection at home. The ISP provided the modem as well as another combo device which serves as a router and VOIP box for a phone line (this is the device -...

    AiProtection - IPoE vs. PPPoE Connection

    I dropped Prism TV a few days ago, and my connection was changed from IPoE to PPPoE with a username and password. When I did, I noticed my 1Gbps download speed would max out at only ~300Mbps. I did a factory reset and my speeds returned to normal. One by one I started adding back my settings and...

    Best option for CenturyLink Gigabit fiber

    So, I have been trying for the last couple of months to come up with an optimal solution for improving my CenturyLink Gigabit fiber. I have the CL ZyXel C1100Z. Terribly slow interface, but accelerates PPPoE well and if all I was doing was browsing the web, this might be good along with a...

    Can ASUS router handle independent IPv4/IPv6 PPPoE with IPv6 multi-prefix and IPv6NAT?

    Hi, I have RT-AC3200 and have the following question which is Japan-specific and may not interest most ASUS router users / developers / RMerlin :). Because Japan has its own IPv6 network (NGN) sitting BETWEEN Internet (both IPv4/IPv6) and end users, unless ISP offers IPv6 IPoE native...

    Create PPPoE session via command line

    I need help to connect a second PPPoE session using the same WAN port. Then, get ip + dns from ISP DHCP and set this second session as IPv6 default gateway. Is this possible with Merlin vanilla or I need to install extra opkg? Thanks, my router is an ASUS RT-AC87u

    ISP needs 2 PPPoE sessions one ipv4 another ipv6

    Hello everyone: This is a weird requirement of and ICP: OCN Japan, that in order to use IPv6 another PPPoE session is required. To be more clear: 1 for ipv4 and another for ipv6. The current webUI only allows one at a time, can someone point me at where are the config files stored. And what...

    RT-AC87U / R Kernel Panic with Dual WAN

    Hello! Since setting up dual WAN on the ASUS RT-AC87U, I have noticed a situation where the router will Kernel Panic at random, whenever one of the WAN connections drops out. I can reproduce the issue if I unplug one of the WAN connections from the router, usually on the first or second...

    PPPoE with russian ISP - wrong IP used as default GW.

    Hi All. I'm using 380.65 on RT-AC87U. I've set up PPPoE connection to my ISP. Essentially everything is set up to "auto" except login and password. The problem is that by default P-t-P (remote) address of ppp0 is used as GW for default route, and it doesn't work. I manually changed default GW...

    PAP (instead of CHAP) for pppoe

    Hi All, This has been an issue that comes and goes, but non of my searches gave me a recent solution: I have an AC68U, FW 380_65 My provider insists I use pap to authenticate my pppoe (fiberglass) connection. My connection is systematically refused (or at least- I fail to connect). My last...

    RT-AC5300: When WAN drops out, device unresponsive until modem powercycled

    I have an ASUS RT-AC5300. Initially it was running stock firmware, but then I hoped perhaps running the alternate firmware (Merlin) I might have some better luck. Still having the same problem unfortunately, and I wondered if people had any ideas how I might diagnose/debug. The setup is...

    VLAN on the WAN port of RT-AC3200

    Just bought the RT-AC3200 to replace the horrible router that was given by my fiber provider. I use PPPoE and the fiber modem delivers tagged traffic on VLAN 6. Is it possible to configure VLAN for the WAN port on this router?

    PPPOE WAN Authentication with CenturyLink

    I'm having problems getting the WAN side of my ASUS RT-AC66U running Merlin 380.59 to authenticate with CneturyLinl VDSL over an ActionTec C1000a DSL modem in bridged mode. II'm trying to switch to bridging-only mode so I don't effectively have 2 routers in front of my home LAN. I know I have...

    Issue after update to 380.58

    Router is Asus RT-AC66U. IPTV doesn't work when WAN is PPPoE. If WAN is Static IP then IPTV works fine. The original firmware 3.0.0.4.378.9533 (2016/01/28) fixed Multicast issue when WAN is PPPoE/ PPTP/ L2TP. After click button Apply changed options router thinking very long time and login out...
