    RT-AX82u Slow download speeds with VPN

    Hopefully I can get some support here because I'm pretty hopeless at this point. I have an RT-AX82U that as of a week ago was working fine, with download speeds over 150 Mbps with mulvad VPN enabled. Randomly, my speeds plummeted and after resetting the router and modem, nothing improved. For...

    Issue with RT-AX86U Signal Strength

    I am not an expert here so please bear with me. My network is a Asus AiMesh configuration with a RT-AX88U as the primary and two RT-AX86U’s as nodes (all connected via dedicated ethernet backhaul at 2.5G). All three currently are running Merlin 388.1 firmware. I did try running the 86’s on...

    RT-AC68U Traditional QoS UL/DL limit values are broken?

    I've recently dirty flashed 386.5 over 386.4 and noticed my download speed had deteriorated (~102mbps reduced to ~18mbps via Ookla) but the built in WebUI Internet Speed test is giving me expected results (102mbps/19mbps). I have Traditional QoS enabled with CTF disabled and this was previously...

    ASUS RT-AX86U and Gigafast

    I’ve recently bought an ax86u to replace the woeful Vodafone router on my 900 Gigafast package. However I was receiving roughly 600mbps wireless download speed using the Vodafone router and having switched to the ASUS router I’m now only receiving 150mbps download on wireless..! Any reason why...

    Repeater choice and its speed-halving questions

    For simplicity's sake, neglecting the range concerns for now. There is a AC750 source router with one 5Ghz spatial streams, meaning 433Mbits top speed. Now, normal people would buy an AC750 repeater and they are sure to have their speed halved. There just isn't enough bandwidth. 1. If I buy any...

    Merlin AiMesh extremely unstable

    Just spent 4h of my life trying to install Merlin on a new AC88U and an old AC68U. Eventually everything went well but I am getting an extremely unstable AiMesh network. The 88U is used as the main router and it is around 10m away from the 68U which is connected to desktop 1 and a powerline -...

    Slow Wi-Fi Speed on AC88U Specifically

    I have an issue with the Wi-Fi speed on my AC88U running real scenario tests. So for the purposes of the test I'm running 4 devices: ASUS AC88U (runs around 60 degrees C during testing (with cooling) - 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz, around 6 WiFi devices reported on Merlin) Macbook Pro 2016 (Wireless AC &...

    OpenVPN client and server degrading download speeds

    Just updated my RT-AC68U to 384.5 merlin firmware and noticed that my 100Mbps down speed is now merely 35Mbps. Direct connection to cable modem shows 100mbs down speeds no issue. started trouble shooting the router, turning off VPN server and client and rebooting brought up the down speeds to...
