Features are the same across all hardware when running the premium firmware. Generally speaking, WRT1900ACS is faster than the Newifi-D2 we had earlier, which in turn is faster than the C7. Our new WiFi 6 router seemed to have better WiFi performance than the WRT1900ACS.

If you want to connect wired access points, then WRT1900ACS and our new WiFi 6 routers are better choices.

It will be back next week.

@susan Log in to the router admin site. What is displayed on the Status page?

Split tunneling is for destination domains/IP addresses. For example, if you set up a VPN client to tunnel all traffic through the VPN but want to exclude netflix.com, then enter netflix.com in the excluded domain list.

In your case, you want to set up two VLANs, one with VPN, the other without VPN. Connect your TV to the one without VPN.

For example, you can have LAN going through VPN (by checking the “enable for network” checkbox), but leave X1 out of the VPN (by leaving the “enable for network” checkbox unchecked). Connect the TV to the X1 VLAN either by wire or WiFi.

To recap, your phone displays the 2.4 GHz SSID sometimes and your TV doesn’t display the 2.4 GHz SSID at all? But other devices can see the 2.4 GHz SSID all the time?

You may want to enable mDNS under the Security section.

Currently we have the CF-WR619AC in stock which is functionally equivalent to the Newifi-D2. The CF-XR11 will be restocked soon.

It should be pretty stable. You’ll have the LITE version of pcWRT after you install the firmware. You can upgrade to the full version by buying a one-time license from our store.

The preferred way is to use the check boxes on the Network Settings page. The checkbox on the WiFi Settings page isolates clients connected to the same SSID but not clients on the same VLAN but different WiFi bands or clients connected by wire.

The ports are numbered 1-4 from left to right when you look at the back of the router, irrespective of the labels on the box. I.e., the port next to WAN is port 4.

You’ll need to turn off WiFi on the pcWRT and set your Google mesh in bridge mode. The setup is similar to one discussed here: https://www.pcwrt.com/forums/topic/connect-pcwrt-to-orbi/. But first please check that Google mesh supports bridge/AP mode.

1. It should be compatible if they are using the standard protocols. For OpenVPN, we need the .ovpn files. IKEv2, server certificates (if they use self-signed certificates). For WireGuard, you’ll need the server hostname, public key, and the client private key.
2. We’ll restock our hardware soon, in the next week or two.

We don’t know about the sites you mentioned. Please check back with us in the next few days.

[support]

Yes it is. You can use OpenVPN and IKEv2 protocols.

[support]

No WRT 1900AC. We have a build for WRT 1900ACS.

Create a profile, add a calendar with no allowed time to the profile. Then add the device to the profile.
