I am in the process of planning my wired network/Ethernet. I got the Asus AC2600 but don't plan on using the wireless connection. I am looking for detailed and specific settings for the wired connection. I am listing the following areas that I have questions, whether the settings would be required for the wired connection or not. I reviewed the user guide and picked those sections for now that I think may or may not affect the wired connection.
The guide for the AC2600 describes in details about establishing the physical wired connection but then describes about the wireless settings for the wireless connection for the rest of the guide. Each section, it doesn't say applicable or not applic
Configuring the General Settings
From the navigation panel on the left side of the Web GUI, right below where it says “General”, there is an option for the “Network Map” screen. From this option, to the far right there are 2 tabs to configure the following for the wireless dual bands:
-SSID,
-Security level
-Encryption settings
For wired connection, this is not required. Is this correct?
--------
For wired connection, does AiProtection apply?
When scanning for the Network Protection, will the Router Security Assessment display results for the wired connection?
From the “Router Security Assessment” page, will the “Secure Your Router” selection work with wired connection?
--------
From the navigation panel, right below where it says “AiProtection”, there is an option for the “Traffic Manager” settings. From this option, there is the “QoS” tab:
“Quality of Service” lets you set the bandwidth priority and manage network traffic.
Do the bandwidth priority settings apply to the wired connection? Are bandwidth settings only for dual bands and not wire connection/Ethernet?
Configuring the Advanced Settings
From the navigation panel, right below where it says “Advanced Settings”, there is an option for the “Wireless” settings. From this option, there are several tabs:
-General
-WPS
-WDS
-Wireless MAC Filter
-RADIUS Setting
-Professional
Which tab requires settings to be filled in to configure the wired connection?
-------------
Below the “Wireless” option, there is the “LAN” option. From this option, there are several tabs:
-LAN IP
-DHCP Server
-Route
-IPTV
-Switch Control
Which tab requires settings to be filled in to configure the wired connection?
