I'm looking for some help with my RT-N16 router. My network is a little complicated so I'm going to give some background info. Network Topology- My network gateway to the internet is set at 192.168.1.1. It is an Aztech modem/router
- Debian server at Port 1 of Aztech router. Connection is on eth1
- Asus RT-N16 is to be set on Debian server eth0
- Debian server is to act as firewall + wireless network monitor using IP_tables and Wireshark
- IP range for Asus RT-N16 clients is a Class B range with a /29 subnet mask so that I may limit the number of wireless clients
Issues- What mode should the Asus RT-N16 be set on (gateway, router, AP)?
- What should the IP address for the RT-N16 be? I understand that this is dependant on the mode selected in question 1
- Any ideas or hints (for example, do I really need to subnet the RT-N16 clients?)
Any help would be very much appreciated |

Its simply I pick the best that will fit my situation. In this case the Asus RT-N16 is 1 of the fastest routers I've had the pleasure of messing with. Even with QoS-ing the slowdown is minimal. |

Just used their routerOS on a spare desktop before. Thats why I said its the best I've played with  Not the best of all. |
