What am I missing? What about a "pass-all" rule to test? Afterward you make more specific rules- and test after each new rule - and step back when things won't work anymore. Gertjan :.

Here is what you need to do. All this is onetime setting.
What is left now is to start the hosted network. It seems some drivers do face some problems with these commands and may need windows to restart to function correctly again.
In fact, the only mesh router I've tested that returned faster average download speeds in my home costs more than three times as much as the Deco W That's flat-out unbeatable value, and a better, more noticeable upgrade for most homes than splurging on a high-powered standard router.
Asus is one of the top names in the gaming router category, boasting the best variety of fast, flashy routers that promise elite performance, low latency, and advanced controls for your connection. The Asus RT-AX86U is actually one of the more understated routers in that mix -- it doesn't include color-changing lights or an oversize, ostentatious design -- but it's still one of the best gaming routers you can buy.
Gaming aside, it's one of the best Wi-Fi 6 routers you can buy, period. Along with offering fast, consistent speeds, the RT-AX86U did a better job at managing latency than any other router I tested it against, and it comes with a full suite of tools for optimizing your connection while gaming, including an adaptive quality-of-service engine and an Open NAT database of game- and platform-specific port forwarding rules.
There's even a Mobile Game Mode designed to instantly prioritize traffic to your phone. Most importantly, it makes strong enough use of Wi-Fi 6 to ensure that even the nongamers in your household will appreciate having it around.
Well, here's the one that beat it -- the AX version of the Netgear Orbi mesh system. With that all-important tri-band design and full support for Wi-Fi 6, the AX Orbi blew us away with excellent signal strength and downright impressive top speeds when we first tested it out a year or two ago.
Those speeds have held up ever since -- whether we're clocking top speeds in our lab or testing real-world speeds at home, literally nothing else I've tested performs as well.
On top of that, the AX Orbi deserves credit for being one of the first mesh routers to offer a multigig WAN port and breaking the bottleneck that capped incoming wired speeds at just a single gig. Like a Mercedes Benz for the mesh category, it's more machine than most people need, but there's nothing wrong with coveting one -- or waiting for the rare sale.

In the meantime, I'll post answers to any commonly asked questions below.
If you did not turn off DHCP, when you plug your router into the network after configuration , your WAP may provide IP addresses to clients on the wired network, and this may be inappropriate. Tracking down problems caused by multiple DHCP servers can be time-consuming and difficult. To get past this issue, simply set your computer's IP address and subnet to This assumes you are still using the default settings.
If not, change the IP address and subnet as appropriate You should now be able to point your browser at You may need a crossover cable to do this, although many modern routers have automatic polarity sensing. To test this, connect a standard Ethernet cable between the two routers. If the LAN light comes on, the router has automatically switched the polarity and a crossover cable is not required. Normally, the router does Layer 3 IP routing. All this really buys you is an extra port 4 available instead of 3 , but why not?
If you are installing additional Access Points to cover a broader area with Wi-Fi access, it is possible to allow clients to roam freely between them. The clients control when to switch in between APs. Most clients will switch when they see a more powerful AP available but some client radios are not able to listen for a new AP when connected to an existing AP and as a result those clients will not roam to the new AP until they completely lose signal from the old one.
Use a different channel on each AP.
