1. if i am not wrong,u need a pendrive / external usb ssd/hdd drive for docker related services
2. With Wireguard protocol yes,but the speed might not be able to hit the max speed with your internet plan. (And while utilize high speed with vpn,your router cpu usage will also be high due to vpn data encryption)
3. Use your current Asus TUF AX5400 as Wifi AP,the processing power stress will be lower for both device. (Or you can place both on different place with connected ethernet connection)
4. Yes,routeros does support this kind of wifi setup.

I would suggest to use the Asus router as AP 1st,and if you still having issue,then setup another ssid on mikrotik hap ax3 for the iot devices.

Guys!!
Mikrotik RouterOS Finally implement IPv6 Fasttrack!!!

What's new in 7.18beta2 (2025-Jan-21 11:27):
*) ipv6 - added FastTrack support;
*) ipv6 - added routing FastPath support;

If you using Unifi,and enable ipv6 with unifi. U will get /64 subnet which will auto distribute by the router to device.
And every device under the network will get a unique ipv6 address with 3 days lease time. (Which mean every 3days or eveytime you reboot your router,your device ipv6 address will changes)

Unless you only enable the ipv6,and only allow local ipv6 address,then u will only have one ipv6 address with your router,and all ipv6 will be running under NAT mode.

I mainly use pppoe and wireguard with alot of Mangle only.
BGP or others like openvpn or something else no use.
But use somemore on address-list for mangle usage.

And i just update my rb5009 status on unifi thread, i "almost" overturn my assumption on rb5009 death. (1:39PM)


Edited:
dc again after 1+hours. Now change back to hEX for further monitoring.

Yesterday night i see the Subtel price the RB5009 at RM1400++
I bought it few year ago below rm1k...
Almost 40-50% price up....

No, ipv6 for windows already fix either for hEX or RB5009. no longer drop. And yes i choose random ipv4 result just now to prove the connection still alive for 40min with rb5009. but die after around 90-100mins.

Yes,but i did change to old onu for now.and now using hEX again for monitoring purpose. and dc occurs once 20mins after switch to hEX. So this make me think it is still a possibility that tm faults.
But after that dc,so far no dc occurs from 3.34pm until now. (Old ONU using new ONU adapter,and hEX using own adapter,new cable between Old onu and hEX)

Dont test with that ip,not stable,the host keep suffer attack now.so the line might be packet lost for current time.

I start a pingplotter to 8.8.8.8 just now.later i will upload the screenshot. (This was done with old ONU + hEX (Vention cable),PC connected to 2.5G switch and connected with 1G hEX-Ugreen cable)

U mean Wednesday when we discuss right,yes after thursday 3am+ i going to sleep,and no dc at all,but the dc occurs after afternoon yesterday.

If i start torrenting,i think the latency will spikes. torrenting causing different issue,but still usable. But should not cause disconnect i think.

And about the last replies before sleep,u suggest me to use hEX or refresh.
I just use hEX with queue,the speed will be limited to around 600M/300M. (With upload queue only)

okay good i dc now!!!!

just dc after i started the qbittorrent.
I 1000% confirm not my device issue now!!!

Same log pattern occurs on hEX with old ONU to RB5009 with new ONU.

Now keep dc... But is a good news for me actually that i no need to waste money to buy new router.

I stop torrent to see how 1st.

Thanks for your helps.
Now my result not accurate...haha cant compare.
Let me fix it with TM 1st. I observe tonight,maybe will contact TM tomorrow or Sunday.

haha but i livechat to complain not calling 100.
TM will send their technical team come to check tomorrow morning.
I already expect them to said is my fault,but i still need to report 1st.
Or they will not take a look on my issue.
I will appeal if they not fix my issue.

And update to my network status:
I have about 3-4 hours of stable network.
But after 11pm until now,the disconnection had occurs for 4 time already.
About every 10min happens once.

I got mikrotik pppoe log running. and this disconnect is not cause by torrenting. The disconnect on last evening is totally a coincidence. (After that dc,i have about 3 hours okay)
After 11pm,i get a frequent disconnection even until now. (Torenting off)

Let them check 1st.
No port flapping now. both side no log related to ethernet for disconnection.

My thought: ONU is not the main cause of this issue,it might be something wrong else.
Mikrotik support did said this:
" I would say that the number of active PPPoE sessions exceeds the value configured on server, contact your ISP or check server configuration."


Updated:
With attached a short log about pppoe disconnection.

Never sold my router.
Later 10.30am tm will come and check.
Even if the problem really on password being use,i still need to fix the upload latency spikes.
It came back again in the 1st second when i start upload data.

And attached a overnight pingplotter here.

After 2.45am no more downtime.

Emm hEX should having the same issue. (upload packet lost and high latency only mainly occurs on ipv6)
The first hop packet lost is normal. Chatgpt said router will not respond 100% with non-direct traceroute.
If i pingplotter to router, no packet at all.



For this packet lost is according to the disconnection with unifi.


This bypass 2.5G switch. PC direct to mikrotik. (while uploading)

For what i tested,the ipv6 high latency might be due to the bufferbloat when hitting more than 4XXmbps upload with ipv6. (If i using queue and set it limited in 4XXmbps,no spikes at all)
OR maybe if upload with ipv4 then will be ipv4 packet lost and high latency,this one i haven't test.

Ah i just tested to force upload to google drive with ipv4.
IPv4 spikes abit,this i can understand most likely due to bufferbloat. (80ms)
IPv6 spikes more abnormal. (more than 400ms)
So when uploading file,ipv6 latency much higher than ipv4.





For packet mark, not now.
I had reset my mikrotik router,now only pppoe and queue is using on mikrotik. all other function and setting is by default.

Just updated my replies, after reset mikrotik no additional setting except pppoe and queue. (And if upload queue disabled packet lost issue much worse)

all Queue disabled. Now no packet lost but latency spikes still occurs.
The fully packet lost when upload seems like very random,last week i tried,it will totally packet lost when utilize high upload speed.



Edited:
11.37am already, after the slot appointment time,no technician came.
But the tm site show it is onsite...
Although i did report and tell them to check their device 1st before coming.
