router

As you can see, I am replacing an ancient router (WNDR 4300) that continues to work well 12 years after it was bought. The difference is I now stream YouTube TV, and have at least 3-4 Mac computers connected with 2 playing Destiny on GeForce at the same time, and the other two on YouTube a good...

I bought a $32 portable router so I can connect multiple devices to my iPhones hotspot. It is a GL-iNet Mini Smart Router (Model GL-AR300M16-Ext). I did speed tests before using the router and while using the router and it seems to work great with no loss in speed. QUESTION: Based on the specs...

Hi, So I’m just looking for what the best option is here. I’ve managed to setup a raspberry pi with pihole (proud of that). I bought a Synology Nas for backup and Plex (got that working as well). I use a Asus RT-AX86U router with the latest version of merlin. So I’m looking for the best wat...

I have been having some issues where my router would keep losing connection every couple of hours or so and I have been having problems updating the firmware on my Netgear Nighthaw C7000v2. I came up with a new password and updated it, but now when i go to the Nighthawk app and click on the...

I'm seeking recommendations for a new WiFi router, to replace my venerable Linksys WRT3200ACM. That's the last router I bought, and boy, things have sure changed between then and now in the world of routers. $600 routers? That's a new thing. Anyway, the short story is, this is a small...

Hello everyone. I'm looking for a new router for work and im not quite sure which brand to choose. We are about 50 people in the company and we all pretty much use macbook Could you guys recommend Zyxel - Router? Thank you in advance /Lise

(Moderators feel free to move this thread, I didn’t know where to put it) Here’s the deal: I don’t have an AirPort card for my G5. Now, the logical thing to do is to buy a used one from eBay but I don’t want to spend money. I have a few Ethernet cables, an old Apple airport router from early...

Hey all, I have a topic that's been discussed before, but most of what I can find is quite a few years old. Also I wasn't sure which category to add this to, so I figured I'd add it to iOS because it can apply to multiple devices. With this said: Most of the old articles out there that...

My Airport Extreme died & I replaced it with an ASUS router: all good. My apt. building is old & wireless coverage is not great, so the way I had connected to my Roku in the living room from the internet access point in the 2nd bedroom was as follows: Cable modem-->router-->MoCA adapter...

So, I am looking for advice on a new network setup I am contemplating: I have relatively fast internet (1000/100) and I right now use my ISP Modem as router. I have connected a LinkSys Velop WiFi Mesh system to it (in Bridge), as well as a few LAN switches, to connect my QNAP NAS, my ReadyNAS...

I have been using 3 airport extremes connected via hardwire for a number of years and I am considering upgrading to something else. Our house is two stories and I currently have the three extremes (latest model) spread pretty evenly throughout the house. I have had to reboot them more often...

Okay, so is this normal. As none of my other Macs have done this and can't find any help from the support people. For some reason, my new Mac Book Air with the M1 chip straight out of the box, not messed with settings, remain connected to Wifi - it even downloads podcasts and emails etc. I can...

Hello, I'm getting ready to retire a Time Capsule I've used for years as both wifi router and backup location for Time Machine. What systems are you using for Time Machine over wifi that are working? I would like to replace the Time Capsule with a new wifi router (that will hopefully expand...

Hey all, hope this day finds you well. I am looking for some clarification on recommended router settings when it comes to multicast / mDNS, and IGMP. Google's documentation seems to be very vague on the topic. According to Google, they say if you're running chromecast v1 to enable multicast...

I have a Netgear78 Router at home, an iMac, an iPhone11, iPadPro11. NetgearGenie shows me there are two wifi networks for 5G and 2.4G as I have set up, BUT there is an additional network, named ATTuMysE6a. I don't use ATT anymore, I use Verizon. Should I delete this network? I don't use ATT?

NordVPN user for some time now. Recently got a Netgear R7200 router [aka AC2100] which includes VPN features. Is a separate service like NordVPN necessary? Or is the router's VPN sufficient on it's own? Aging brain won't wrap around what seems likely a very simple/basic understanding.....

Hi all, I'm looking for a router I can configure to bridge internet from an Orange Livebox in France via ethernet and funnel any devices connected to this new router through an L2TP VPN to an office so we can use a networked phone there and potentially connect Macs to if it has better wifi than...

Hello, I’m getting ready to rotate out my old Airport Extreme & Time Capsule. I’m thinking of going with ubiquity products * Security Gateway router * pro or HD access point * maybe a switch, but This might be overkill for now. * controller gen 2 teo features I’d like are: * The ability to...

I will be in the market for a new router (and possible extender/mesh/? system) soon. I know WiFi 6 is a must, but I'd like it to be HomeKit-enabled as well. However, my biggest hope is that I can find one from a company that is NOT related to Amazon, Google, or FaceBook! Any suggestions?
