A complete overhaul new firmware with lots of new features + functions + really nice UI !!
As promised, ASUS delivered the new UI with UniFi support, thanks & credit to ASUS team !!
Shall we call this the ASUSWRT ?!
I purposely disconnect & re-connect with new IP to start the following testings.
Traffic Manager (QoS)
A complete re-write QoS engine, with respective down/up load bandwidth setting, by IP/Ports/Protocols, even comes with some pre-configured QoS settings, impressive !!
Choose User-define QoS from the drop-down
and define QoS rules manually as wishes !
Comes with the following pre-configured QoS for easy selection & setup
with graphical display !
USB Application - Torrenting!
Another completely re-write torrent downloading application, finally a full feature torrent client ! Read further to discover what's the torrent application ........
After I plug-in a Seagate 640GB USB external 2.5" HDD, the USB Application will comes up automatically, click "Install" for new HDD installation process.
The device auto-detect the USB HDD, click on the HDD to continue installation.
Yes, there is no need to download or install anything on your PC already, the device will install packages onto the HDD directly, sweet !
Installation completed
Go back to the USB application again, noticed the Download Master appeared, click on it to continue
Enter the device user ID & password
Wah-la, full feature torrent application !!
Quickly threw some torrents, full speed on my VIP5 !!
I set the following down/up load to limit torrenting and preserve some bandwidth
Guess what, it runs on Transmission 2.21
Samba will also be installed automatically, browse Network and found the device without any problem
Noticed the 2 folders created
Application installed
Torrent download folders
IPv6 Setting
IPv6 setup is now available !
WiFi
Test copy a 10GB movie from NAS wirelessly, speed is excellent & stable, hovering between 8.1~8.6 MB/s
Tested & using it for more than 3 days without any issue, still the same IP !
Overall the firmware is stable, with loads of new features & functions, strongly recommended to upgrade !!
