Didn’t have much time to configure tonight, family needed net for a work project but wow what a fast setup. It auto detected the VLAN ID (101) and I selected BT Infinity and that was it after I did the bthomehub@btbroadband.com stuff. Just connected stuff via wireless to make sure it’s ok and now my upstairs PC (wi fi 6) is pinging bbc.co.uk at basically the same pings as wired give or take 1-2 ms. Pretty insane so far.

As for installing merlin, I’ll tackle it tomorrow. I just get the latest .w file and upload here right:

Also this is the speed the asus gave me directly:

Is there any issue with setting anything lower than what most people recommend for QoS? e.g. 95% of that is roughly 42 but would it be ok being conservative with say 41? About 9 for upload?

Also the router did something I had never seen before. It pinged bbc.co.uk in 14ms!

Best I ever saw before on other routers was 15ms and that was super rare (usually 16-17). I may hit 12ms on FTTP haha. :D

Thank you
