Wow! Thank you for mentioning this. I have RT-AX58u V2 which I bought with intention to install merlin, but I then found out there are 2 hw versions of it and I got 2nd which is unsupported.

When I connect an ethernet from the upstairs ethernet port, into the LAN port of the AX58U This is incorrect. You should be using the WAN port on the AX58U. https://www.asus.com/support/faq/1044151/

The Asus RT-AX58U works okay with an attached drive. My only concern is that uses HFS+ (instead of APFS) and starting from macOS 26 wonât be supported anymore. Not sure if Asus will update this (but I donât believe they will).

I have the same router. I really, really hate that unstable, overpriced sh1t. Lot of functions are under subscription too... I'am using an ASUS RT-AX58U, the TP-Link is only used in LAN-parties nowadays. Edit: I have AX5400, not AXE5400... Sorry, the hate blinded me.

Its been like 2-3 months now but I no longer get those speeds when downloading from anything. I can only get gigabit speeds when

Gaming routers are a scam. Prime example, I have an ASUS RT AX 3000, it's literally the same as the ASUS TUF Gaming AX3000 hardware and software wise, and even then, it still runs on an older firmware that was originally designed for the AX58u Routers ... The whole "Gaming " things is nothing but a

I think it's my Asus RT-AX58U router with the Merlin firmware. Leaving Lan Port 4 blank for my switch connection I couldn't even access the internet or my router ip. But by changing it to VID>40 or other number the speed test are good but ping test is pretty terrible and webpages load very slowly wh
