2441 TopicsSelective VPN for specific devices?
Hi all. Asus router have a feature called VPN Fusion. It allows set up of multiple VPN networks and the ability to select specific devices on the network that use the VPN. Does Netgear have a similar feature on their routers? And if so, which specific models (preferably from the mesh network range) actually have this feature? I need to set up my VPN service on the router and only have 3 devices on my network use it.307Views0likes1CommentEAX20 intermittent?
I have a Nighthawk R7800 on the lower level of my home. A few years ago I added a Meross WiFi device for my garage door. Because of an apparent weak signal, I later added an EAX20. All was well until the past week when my video doorbell started going offline (it’s about 15’ from the EAX20). After much messing around, the doorbell somehow got connected to the router instead and all is well again. The EAX20 clients are mostly IP cameras and have never gone offline. Is the a means to select which AP a device connects to?280Views0likes1CommentC7800 upgrade?
I have a c7800 midem/router that is aging. My home is 2,000 sqft, my internet provider is Xfinity and I have their 500gb plan. I have about 20 devices connected to my network. What is a reasonable combo upgrade that will cover my requirements but not break the bank.554Views0likes4CommentsHaving connection issues with my Nighthawk XR1000
I've been having issues with connecting to my Nighthawk XR1000, and I was wondering if there is a device limit to the number of devices that can connect to his router? My nighthawk has two wifi signals, one for the regular wifi channel and one for 5G, and I've been having difficulty connecting to one or the other signals. I had a new room mate move in recently who has added a number of new devices to our wifi, and I'm wondering if that's overloading the router?291Views0likes2CommentsOrbi RBR50 parental controls not working
I have an RBR50 and two RBS50 satellites that work great. I purchased a Parental Controls subscription about 2 years ago, and I noticed in the last 3 months that it no longer works. I have been attempting to fix this issue for a few weeks now but to no avail. Specifically, I have reset my Orbi system several times, and I have updated my firmware twice. The router and two satellites are now running the latest v2.7.5.4 Completely stumped and frustrated…551Views0likes1CommentMR60
I'm looking at buying the MK83 mesh wifi for my home, I currently have the MR60. I was wondering if I keep just the satellite from the MR60 will it work with the MK83? If it will work, does it automatically sync or do I have to manually add it and what does that include? Yes I have a need for 3 satellites and 1 base. I'm trying to get signal to parts of my house that are faraday caged so to speak and moving the metal isn't an option.Router web software to manage individual devices.
Hello, I am looking for a router that would have the ability using either a browser or mobile app, that would allow me to restart the wi-fi on an individual device. Right now, the router I am using I have to turn off wi-fi for all devices in order to restart the wi-fi on 2 cameras that have issues (long story). So I would like to just be able to select the device that would "appear not online" and restart the wi-fi, avoiding having to do this for the entire wi-fi system. Right now doing that with these 2 cameras fixes the issue. i can only control the priority of internet on these cameras, but i want to control the wi-fi connection to it. Does any router in the Netgear (home) space allow this to happen?451Views0likes3CommentsProduct recommendation for an RV AP with Wi-Fi backhaul.
Hello, I am looking for an AP for my RV that would allow for Wi-Fi backhaul to another local AP. It needs to have an external antenna connector or a removable 2.4 or 2.4/5 antenna. I am thinking that a range extender could work but I would prefer to have my own SSID. A Mesh system would only work if the far AP was the same product. Do most AP's allow for non wired backhaul? Possibly one solution would be a range extender to the far AP along with a local AP using the extender's link as backhaul. ?522Views0likes1CommentNightHawk CAX 30 NAS100 & NAS200, CAC 30S NAS 100
Hello, Please explain the differences between CAX 30-100 NAS and CAX 30 - 200 NAS and CAX 30S. I am replacing a NG NH C7000 that is over 5 years old. I am job hunting so on a limited budget and am confused as to which of the combo modem routers is best for me. My provider is Comcast and my mbps is 800 but my brother says to get ready for > 1 GBPS and buy a modem router that will last > 5 years. Thank you, MaryAnn1.5KViews0likes3Comments
