    Thought I would mention this... I think one of the poignant points here... I hope at age 70+ that I have the opportunity to thank people for using contributions I might have made. I wish Tom well, and deeply thank him for his efforts. We only have so many turns around the sun to make a...

    Possible bug in 02-02-2019 release for AC-RT68U

    I was trying to link a new Denon AVR S740H to my QNAP TS212 NAS. Just to be on the safe side, I installed the newest AsusMerlin firmware on my ASUS router. But I just couldn't get the Denon receiver to recognize the NAS. In fact, the Qfinder couldn't find the QNAP either. It was even worse - I...

    DHCP fixed IP on IoT devices as additional security measurement

    I have isolated all my IoT devices on a separate wired guest network and on a separate wireless guest network. DHCP is turned on for those guest networks. Does it make sense to now, as an additional security measurement, log in to each IoT device and make its IP static and to set to the IP it...

    Hi, I'm in the market for a new router but could use some assistance in identifying a router/firmware combination that meets my needs. I've been using a NetDuma router for quite a while (the old R1 hardware), but recently I've found it to be buggy and is capping my 300Mbps download speeds at...

    Hello all. I had purchased a new TP-Link TE-ER6020 Router and Switch for VLAN purposes, but then I realized that the Router didn't support my ExpressVPN (anonymity only). I am using DSL, so I have my modem setup in pass-through mode and have my router logging in via PPoE. So, not sure whether...

    Buying a second Asus router to be a dedicated VPN router, thoughts?

    I currently have a 87U router and was wondering if buying a second router (Asus N300) to be my VPN router is a good idea. The second VPN configured router would be connected directly to my 87U. Would this setup work? I'd like to have some of my devices connected without a VPN and only select...

    New Router with Removable Antennae
