I'm thinking of buying my own router for my apartment, do I need to buy security along with it?

Nah dude, you don’t need to waste money on one of those “network security plans.” Most consumer routers are fine right out of the box as long as you tweak a few settings. If you grab something decent in the $100–$150 range (TP-Link Archer AX21, ASUS RT-AX57, Netgear, etc.), just do this after settin

running VPN off router to only one device - possible?

Don't think it's possible with that router you have, check out a TP link ax1800, it's definitely not as good as some out there but i can guarantee you that you can individually select devices by the MAC address that you want to use the VPN. I only recommended this router because I have been using on

High net latency on Galaxy Tab S9?

For context my router supports WiFi 6, a TP-Link AX1800/Archer AX21. I'm on the 5Ghz AP with no other devices connected or APs in range, in front of the router, and I get 40 to 90ms on this tab. Somehow on my Legion Go (it's like a Steam Deck) I get around 1ms network / 1ms decode even behind walls.

Ako zablokovať Facebook pre celú domácnosť?

To som skúšala ako prvé ale môj router to nejako divne blokuje a v podstate blokuje celú sieť. Wifi na telefóne mi vypíše, že sa musím prihlísiť aj keď som pripojená a nejdú žiadne webstránky aj keď som tam zadala iba facebook. Skúšala som rôzne kombinácie ako "facebook", "facebook.com", "www.facebo

TP-Link Routers Could Be Banned In the Next Year, Affecting Nearly 65% of Internet Users in the US

So far CNET is the only source I found that says that the router vulnerability was a result of a default password. The password spray attack was an attack by the router botnet on Microsoft. Remote management isn't even enabled by default on the tp link AX21 router which is the main one I know of bei

Logia 5-in-1 WiFi not connecting fix

I had tried everything to reconnect my 5-in-1 Wireless Weather Station (LOWSC510WB). Reset multiple times to no avail, spent hours researching how to download firmware updates (didn’t figure it out).

Until I realized that we got a new router. Turns out, this station won’t connect when the router s

Having trouble with your Lumen internet? Not satisfied with your 360 WiFI / Premium WiFI and Quantum Fiber / My CenturyLink app experience? Or do you want to use your own 3rd party router so that you have more control over your network? Here are some helpful instructions.

Today, I used this guide to get QF set up at my house. I am using an TP-Link Archer AX21 as a router and I was using CenturyLink prior to QF. Everything is working great. This guide was great for getting things set up. A few things I want to note in case anyone is going through something similar. I

Support for TP Link Archer AX1800

This is a few years late, but... for anyone who thought it would surely be finished now: TP-Link AX1800 AX21 router uses the Broadcom BCM6755 system-on-a-chip(SoC). Broadcom is problematic in the best of times, but this SoC is especially "un-open". So it won't ever be supported in the foreseeable fu

Anything equivalent to Asus' AIMesh?

If you don't need parental controls or deep control over your system, then go for TP link Deco. Over the summer, I was searching for a new router to replace our Xfinity gateway. I went with OPNsense at first, but couldn't get it set up, and I didn't feel like I wanted a router that I had to spend mu

Suggest me a good router for Self hosting that doesn't lag or hang.

I've been happy with all TP-Link routers I've used. I'm currently using the Archer AX21 and have no complaints. It even has a built in dynamic DNS feature that has been working well for over a year.
