![]() If it's the other way around where clients that are authenticated to your WiFi router are trying to reach a VPN Server on the OUTSIDE then there is no port forwarding involved the router will let the packet out.īut you are stating " Incoming Clients" then you have to point that Packet to a VPN server if that's what you are doing. ![]() "Now when I'm trying to open it, it asks for a local IP but I need it open for every IP that is going to access the WIFI router" I state I think your confused here because as I read it. In general a Router with a built in firewall lets any packet that ORIGINATES from the inside to the outside, and it will drop ANY unsolicited packets that originates from the outside to the inside unless you specifically create a port foward, port trigger or an Access Control List that tells the router exactly what to do with the packet. You don't port forward Outbound to External IP Addresses. It's called Port Forwarding for a Reason, you forward packets destined for a specific port # that is hitting your routers external PUBLIC IP Address inbound (as in forward) to a specific Internal (NAT'd) IP address which can handle the packet for a specific port, in this case a VPN Server. UDP 500 is used by the ISAKMP portion of the IKE negotiation which is used by IPSec to build the VPN tunnel. I think you're confused on exactly what Port Forwarding is.īUT, If you have a VPN Server behind the router that your Incoming Clients need access to using some kind of VPN Client to authenticate and establish the connection to that server with, then yes you'll have to port forward UDP 500 to THAT servers Internal IP address. The RT-N66R is a 1-year warranty.Are you using the Router itself as your VPN Endpoint? If so the Video above explains nicely how to do that and there is no need to Port Forward UDP 500 in this case. The RT-N66U has 8GB of memory and up to 100GB of storage. The Asus RT-N66R has 16GB of memory and up to 1TB of storage. The RT-N66R does not have a built-in VPN server. You can use it to connect to a VPN server when you want to access the internet via a VPN tunnel. ![]() The Asus RT-N66U has a built-in VPN server. This seems to be substantially lower than that of the RT-N66U, which may consume up to 27 watts under load. The official specifications of the RT-N66R list its power consumption at around 18 watts. The Asus RT-N66R is marketed as “energy efficient” wireless networking device. You can turn on the gaming mode on the RT-N66U and the RT-N66R. Do they have gaming mode features?īoth routers have gaming modes. ![]() The Asus RT-N66U is compatible with the WPA and WPA2 security protocols. The RT-N66R has a slower AC Speed but an average WiFi Speed. The Asus RT-N66U has a much faster AC Speed. The RT-N66R on the other hand is a bit more complex to set up. You plug it into the power and it is ready to use. The Asus RT-N66U has a firewall by default and is easy to set up. You can set a firewall to protect your device from viruses. The Asus RT-N66R does not have a firewall by default. The Asus RT-N66U has a wider area of coverage. The Asus has two antennas on either side of the router, while the RT-N66U has one on each side. The Asus RT-N66U has only three LAN ports but six USB ports, which are all USB 3. The Asus RT-N66R has a total of four LAN ports and two USB ports. The Asus RT-N66U on the other hand is a newer standalone router that supports the latest standard of WiFi, the 802.11ac, using antennas for more powerful connections. Some of the drawbacks of the Asus RT-N66R include that it does not support 802.11ac WiFi standard, has only one Gigabit WAN port, and lacks some of the features available with newer routers like Asus RT-N66U. The Asus RT-N66R is an older router that can be found at a more affordable price. Though both models are designed to support many connections at once with high speeds and solid coverage, the RT-N66U has a few additional features that help it stand out from its less expensive counterpart. Between these two models, the RT-N66R (the “R” stands for “router”) is more affordable, but also not quite as robust. It’s no secret that when it comes to wireless routers, Asus is among the most popular.
