    AsusWRT-Merlin Configuration with VyprVPN and DNS Settings

    VyprVPN provides an App that can be only used with Tomato Shibby; it seems that Shibby is out of date (last update 2017). For router configurations, I see that VyprVPN suggests to use Google DNS or OpenDNS for the “suggested DNS server addresses”. For instance, the instructions for ASUSWRT...

    [UK] Asus 4G-AC68U router, constantly dropping connection on EE mobile network?

    Any recommendations for a cost efficient solution to extend the range of an RT-AC88U taking the following into account: I have an Ethernet connection from the AC88U LAN-port to the 2nd access point (WAN) so I don't need to use WiFi bandwidth for the "extension" I would like to manage the...

    Trying to access Raspberry Pi through OpenVPN via Android

    Hey guys, sorry in advance if I sound like a noob but I don’t often ask questions online. What I’m aiming to do is a bit of a doozie in terms of difficulty (at least to me). Basically, I set up an always-on Raspberry Pi BitTorrent box. On that Raspberry Pi is a samba and SFTP shared external...

    Stale WAN lease on RT-AC86U with 384.15

    Yesterday my internet appeared to be down. I looked at the router and had an assigned WAN address of 67.4.100.253. Pings to 8.8.8.8 and to the supposed to be gateway 67.4.100.254 failed. Odd enough, the log was reporting inbound DROP frames on my address. I power cycled modem(bridge...

    WAN Gigabit not working

    Hi, I can't get LAN/WAN speeds above ~100 Mbps. My WAN connection is 1 Gbps when I connect directly to the ISP modem (testing with Speedtest Ookla). When I connect using a LAN port I get about 100 Mbps (same computer, same cable cat 6, etc) Do I need to do any configuration in the router? What...

    Hi. AX-11000 contains a 2.5g WAN port. It's shape is different from traditional WAN/ LAN Port. Is there a convertor or something to use it for traditional WAN/ LAN? I have 2 internet connections.

    Access to Asus router from WAN?

    I have just upgraded to the AX88U and want to query remotely accessing the router. I can set up, and have tested remote access and it works fine. HTTPS is on with WAN access restricted to one device. DDNS has also been set up. Is this safe? Is anyone else happily using this? Running latest...

    Secure method to share video files (sftp or AiCloud) with non-tech friends

    Hi, Errata: I would correct the title: (other than sftp or AiCloud) I'm looking from you folks to give some ideas for a secure file sharing method using the standard daemons available with Asus or Merlin firmware. I'm not into using command-line configs like vsftpd through entware or similar...

    WAN throughput slower without NAT

    I recently added an RT-AC68U to my home network to create a subnetwork. However, after disabling NAT my WAN throughput dropped to 400Mbit (CPU1 100% and CPU2 60% load) from the recent 930Mbit (CPU1+2 at 100% load). Is this expected behaviour? Shouldn't disabling features increase speed rather...
