    VPN client on RT-AC68U wireless

    I bought two routers last month, one from Gl.inet and an Asus RT-AC68U. I see it is impossible to use my RT-AC68U router as a VPN client in router mode. I want to connect my Asus router to my home router wirelessly and still be able to use OpenVPN or Wireguard, just like the little gl.inet...

    WAN DNS Selection doesn't change DNS severs

    So I noticed that one of the latest updates has added a WAN selection pane which is very useful. However when I selection an option and hit 'Apply' it reconnects to my ISP but then just continues to use the ISP provided DNS servers on both the WAN overview & my devices. Any idea why this would...

    Irregular DNS, Name lookup, Dual PiHole??

    OK sorry but I'm a bit green to this. I've got a DSL-68U (with Gnuton) and AC-68U hooked up fine. Mesh-config, wired together. My internet works via a second ethernet WAN - and I suspect this maybe causing my issue? (Good old Australian NBN over HFC doesn't require the 'modem'). Essentially I...

    RT-AC68U 386.2_6 - WAN_Connection: ISP's DHCP did not function properly with TekSavvy / Cogeco cable

    There are many threads about this issue already on snb, for example this one. I am only creating this new thread to indicate that specifically with Cogeco cable (resold through TekSavvy, though I doubt that matters) there is no current solution to the issue. If anyone is not familiar with this...

    IPv6 Setup Help ASUS Router

    I’m trying to set up IPv6 on my new ASUS RT-AX86U running Merlin 386.2_6. My ISP is a local city owned fiber (Fort Collins Connexion).

    Multiple WiFi Meshes with only 1 ethernet cable set?

    Happy to consider new Mesh Hardware if the price is not prohibitive. ? Is there any software approach method to having the WiFi Mesh serve two Access Points? Each Access Point serves a different subnet? 1) LAN + WAN (192.168.2.xxx) 2) WAN only? (192.168.50.xxx) Detail Organically grown LAN...

    RT-AC68P & FiOS: WAN dropouts on 386.x

    Just wondering if there's been any progress on the WAN dropouts issue some of us have been having on 386? FiOS ONT -> RT-AC68P (router) + 2x RT-AC68U (nodes). With the router on 384.19 everything is rock solid. This is true even after updating the nodes to a few different 386 firmwares...

    RAX120 as access point WAN or LAN port

    I seem to remember reading somewhere (Cannot find it again) that when used as an access point the RAX120 might be slightly slower connect via WAN rather than LAN. Just curious if anybody has any thoughts either way? I have been testing the RAX120 vs. a single Velop MX4200 unit and in my house...

    Hoi, Ik heb al een hele tijd een Asus RT-AC3200 staan als router en het modem van Ziggo in bridge mode. Dit omdat het modem een bak ellende was met wegvallende LAN en soms ook WiFi verbinding. Nu hebben we naast ziggo ook glasvezel van Online/Delta. Omdat ik niet alles opnieuw wilde gaan doen...

    Data Plan for WAN failover to 4G?

    Looking for a USA data plan that doesn't expire for at least 6 or 12 months -- or until you use up the data. I want to setup 4G/LTE failover / backup (I have a Teltonika RUT950, open to changing if needed). My Xfinity internet cable rarely goes down so I can't justify paying a lot for an...

    I am looking for commands to completely reset the WAN eth0 interface on my RT-AX88U equivalent to what happens during a reboot. Something that goes beyond service restart_wan.

    Unable to get rid of WAN IP from VPN connection that no longer exists

    I can't get rid of the WAN IP that was set by a VPN connection that was since removed. Background I set up a VPN client on my RT-AC68W after installing merlin v384 (I think 384?). All was fine for awhile, but I needed to remove the VPN client to solve some issues with some hosts that block...

    Solved RT-AX58U DHCP problem - WAN gets new IP in every boot (3.0.0.4.386_41700)

    Hi ! Great firmware as guest networks are finally in their own subnets, and mesh for guest network works too :) Anyway, like title says my RT-AX58U router gets new WAN IP in every reboot from my ISP. It's quite annoying as before moving to this AX58U my IP stayed same for more than a year. I...
