[ComPuiTer]

MR called up to fix an appointment date for my 300 pure plan looking forward to it.

Though I wonder why can't installation be during weekends...

good job myrepublic.
gonna be 3 weeks without internet connection.

Yes, it will reset the settings to default.

Did the technician configure any setting during the installation?

Not aware as I was not around during the installation. What can I do to maximise my 1Gbps? I average nothing more than 800Mbps atm... Have not tried direct connection to ONT but if I do so and if I get a significantly better speed eg. 900Mbps++ what can I derive from it? Router FW is latest, RT-AC68u.

Anyone here on 1Gbps able to get >900Mbps? Can share your speedtest And what your setup is

Did you do a reset on your router after you updated to the latest firmware version?

Hi all,

I've rolled over from my old contract to 1Gbps gamer plan and was installed recently together with the Asus AC68U router. I signed up for Static IP as well.

Problem started a few days ago when my wifi and wired connections began dropping out at 3-4min intervals for about 1min each time. Playing D3 nicely then will be disconnected. This usually happens during 4-7pm timings.

I called MR support and lady told me to connect wired directly to modem to see if got problem. I tried that and it seems to be ok for the time being.

So anybody has this experience with the new router before? Is there any config that needs to be adjusted on the router?

Also can anybody help me on how to config Static IP so that I can access my NAS externally? MR tech say my IP auto setup and don't hv to do anything but not sure about NAS.

Thanks in advance.

which brand of NAS are you using? since it is static IP, if it is a Synology you just need to go to their external connetion tab, let them view your router config and they will try to config from there.

else it is manual port mapping/forwarding config on your router.

Thanks for the reply.

May I know who are you referring to when u said 'their/them/they". Yes I'm using DS414. Do I go to the DSM Control Panel to do the configurations?

For all the they/their, I refer to Synology NAS itself. (And the router page for the port mapping/forwarding) sorry for being unclear. Under configuration there should be an external connection tab or named similarly. One of the tabs in that page lets you view all the services which are enabled (FTPS SSH etc.).

Flash your router firmware to 5656. Your version may be those previous firmware where there is intermittent dc to Internet

Disable your router QoS feature.

Was there a history of intermittent disconnect for the previous firmware of the router?

I have updated to the latest firmware and monitoring the situation.

Flash to latest firmware from asus or Merlin.
U need to port forward, check the guide from your nas brand.

5517 had disconnect/reboot issues for AC68U and is no longer available for download. 5656 fixed this problem.

I doubt that They are starting to roll out appointments from 1/7.

Whatever problem they had before which has been delaying the installation, I think they're solved now.

 

[IAmNiceify]

My appointment is 3rd july. Will see

does AC68 support NAT-PMP? if it does, synology will detect it and there is no need for end user to configure the router other than turning NAT-PMP on.

Actually Synology have a function to auto map your port to your router. i use that on my ac68u and synology 713+
