ASUSmy, is there any plan for WPA 3 support on the RT-AC68U( I've already have devices supporting WPA 3)?


And also any plan to patch WPA 2 for Kr00K?

ASUSmy I want to know too. I'm also using RT-AC68U.

WPA3 is it is not backwards compatible. Many devices you own now are not going to get WPA3 update. I am speaking of old Android phones, IoT devices and etc. Running WPA3+WPA2 mixed mode don't give you more security as well.

This new vulnerability is really minor and it only affect Broadcom routers. Knowing ASUS, they will be patched soon.

Details: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-15126

TLDR: Minor vulnerability, attackers won't gain access to your network. Minor packet leakage when disassoctiation is triggered. Impractical to be weaponized for malicious use.

All the phones in my house are probably gonna be Android 10 later this year. I'm going to use forced WPA3 if the router is going to support it. No more old Android phones here, other devices are all cabled except a printer which I don't really need to connect to network.

EDIT: But even in transition mode, there's still some benefit for WPA3 devices according to wi-fi.org

Hi, how do I set up remote connection for my Asus RT-AC 68U?

tried by flipping the switch on the asus router app but still can't remote access, already have public IP, using Asus ddns

Hi yongtjunkit,

Have you enable web access from WAN after you have created the DDNS?

Thank you

Yup, still doesn't work, I'm cascading router but I've assigned Public IP to it and I think DMZ as well, AIcloud also not working as well

Hi yongtjunkit,

From the look of it, the ASUS router is not the main router?

If yes, the DDNS won't be able to work.

Thank you

Nope, basically the maxis router is the one that dials the PPPOE and the Vlans

if set up asus ac 86 mesh using the ethernet cable from the primary router, are we still able to use to remaining lan port as as normal on the "node router" (not the primary router) as there is 4 port for each router? will the speed be affected or it will have the same speed as using lan from the same primary router? thanks.

The ASUS DDNS only work only if the ASUS router is the main router.

You can use other DDNS service on the Maxis router and port forward to the ASUS router if you want to access it remotely.

Or change the ASUS router as the main router.

Thank you

Hi aa123aa,

You will still be able to use the 4 LAN ports on the AiMesh node.

As for the speed, I not sure how far and what cable you used, it will always better than using WiFi.

Thank you

Why don't you just move your pppoe user and password from the Maxis stock router to your Asus router? Meaning that, you need to make the Asus router to become as your main router in order to use the Asus DDNS and AiCloud.

The port forwarding should be done on the asus router or the maxis router?

If that's the case will the Astro decoder see the Asus router to get internet( I'm using Astro IPTV)?

currently, both of them are set as router, 2 different DHCP sever, asus one is 192.168.2.xx, maxis one is 192.168.1.xx

ASUSmy I see a lot of sellers in Lazada & Shopee stating the imported ASUS routers that they are selling comes with "International Warranty" which we all know it isn't true
What can we do about these sellers to avoid confusion for all future buyers?

How do we report it?

Hi sHawTY,

You may use the feedback feature if it is from Lazada.

For Shopee it is the same.

Thank you

The astro decoder doesn't care about which router that you are using. If you are worried about this, you can change your asus router to 192.168.1.1 and maxis router change to 192.168.1.2. It's doesn't matter.

I'm guessing you mean switching from Lan to Wan cascading router setup to Lan to Lan setup, Asus router dial PPPOE, Disable DHCP on maxis router?

Am I correct?

He's using astro IPTV... Not just astro with Internet for VOD. So it's a complex set-up with both IPTV VLAN and Internet.
