Done checking, there is none, I recommend you change router, but if you still wanna use it, then...

Config here, saw the "IP Version"?
Change it to IPv4, then save, and only change this one.

The bad side is you will disabled IPv6, it is useful when you need torrenting or playing p2p games on Steam, else it should be fine.

Or, just change all secure DNS/DoH/DoT on all of your device la. laugh.gif
Still, better seek a better router la.

Then use this to check which DNS you are using, should be Google.

IPv6 rare useful, I tell you, most DNS send you to SG server instead of MY, which slow you down.

Only when you need Public IP address and you are CGNAT as 100M sub customer, then it is quite useful.
Else, UPnP + public IPv4 is better solution for all.

And yes, Asus router with regular maintenance update + Secure DNS + custom ROM anywhere is the best, there is no need to keeping up WiFi 7 or WiFi 8, unless you got a big house or wanna play with VR, lol.

Dude you basically spot on everything drool.gif

True. IPv6 is meant for us to prepare to embrace the future, as for SG server, i am just a casual web surfer, so i can accept the response time laugh.gif

Yes..ASUS router with merlin firmware is the basic steps to enter custom rom for router, OpenWRT is next level, then x86 router is another level, and i am still using wifi 6 lol, for me, cable still the best & rock solid. Now preparing myself to enter 2.5G & 10G LAN laugh.gif
WiFi is just meant for my casual browsing laugh.gif

p.s: some people might not like asus router, so don't get offended with me whistling.gif
