Mara_22515,
Thanks for the reply …
(WRT32X) was getting to be a time consuming loss of effort.
Plan "B", now implemented. Ordered a new WRT3200, on the way.
Now to I overwrite DD-WRT operating system with a fresh copy of WRT32X to factory Linksys operating system?
Please advise.
Thank you.
H Jones
So what brand is everyone buying now that Linksys has gone discount. I run a small business and cant survive with the lack of customer support we are getting.

Like you said if I leave it to auto, mtu will default to 1492.
But if I want to set it manually, maximum allowed value on the router web interface is 1492... it cannot be set to 1500..
Linksys should allow the user to set an higher value if this is really what he wants
The increase is only 8 bytes or .005% of a packet.
I had been trying the wired setup all along so I continued trying that. The router created an SSID called Ciscoxxxxx (xxxxx = numbers). I connected to that open network but didn't have interent so I couldn't access the router's web interface.
Then I tried the wireless setup. On my desktop I connected to the Ciscoxxxxx network but still didn't have internet. A screen popped up advising me to insert the Cisco Connect CD, which I did. The installation was successful using my existing home network name and password. Then I plugged in the cable from the router to my desktop and the router reset and "Network 2" was created again. I even tried this wireless method on a laptop. No luck.
At one point,Cisco Connect advised that my internet connection had been lost and instructed me to power cycle my modem, but I don't have one (I'm on a a fiber optic network). So I powered cycled the gigabet switch provided by my ISP but that didn't even work.
I'm getting a little bit frustrated, it shouldn't be this difficult to just replace an old router...
I'm having a hard time getting a solid answer to my questions.
1) Can I install a new Linksys wireless router without having to create some 'smart wifi' account? I just want to log into the router and configure it.
2) Do any support LACP?
3) Do any support sending entries to a syslog server?
Thanks in advance.

I have my own DHCP server on my network (Pi-Hole)... so I disabled the DHCP server in the router.But even after disabling the DHCP server in the router, it was still giving out IP address which caused all sorts of problem on my network.
If this was true then this would be major firmware bug.
I will see if my EA9500 still hands out IP Addresses with its DHCP disabled.
Did you use Wireshark to analyze DHCP on your network?
I didn't use wireshark (or any other tools).
I saw this problem after rebooting my router... one of my devices (my Mac mini) got a new IP address on wireless and ethernet... and when looking into this, I saw that dns and dhcp server where pointing to the linksys router. Also my pil.hole was seeing these IP addresses on the network... and they were marked as not going through pi.hole. I saw some of my smart devices also getting new ip addresses without going through my pi.hole dhcp server.
I renewed the IP addresses on both interfaces and it got it's old IP address back from my pi.hole dhcp server.
Besides my pi.hole,I have no other devices capable of giving out IP addresses on my network.
After seeing this, I enabled the DHCP, rebooted the router, disabled it, rebooted again... and it has been working fine since then even after multiple reboots.
I never had the DHCP server on the linksys router enabled on my network... I just had it enabled when doing the initial configuration with my laptop... I disabled it before connecting the router to my network... so I don't really know where this bug is coming from. It might have something to do with when I upgraded to latest firmware... I should have done a factory reset after this upgrade.

If you choose Manual setup options you don't need to create a smart wifi account.
The EA8300 supports LAG on LAN ports 1 and 2. No mention of LACP but I would assume that.
I only know the LRT224/214 supports sending logs to a syslog server.
Thanks, that's helpful information.
I would recommend downloading and installing OpenWRT. You will at least get responses to issues.
This is the status quo for commercial support in the USA. You can pay through the nose for awful support, or you can get the same awful support for free. All large companies have jumped on the "let's use unpaid users as support employees" bandwagon, so may as well use an OS that said employees have written themselves versus one they cannot fix or alter.
You'll get a ton more features too, many of which are business-oriented and only available for routers costing $1,000+
I should add that the base hardware specs of the 1900ACS are pretty good ... strong CPU, 512MB RAM, dual partition.
It's one of the better base hardware machines you'll likely be able to get for the money.
I have iPad 6th generation it will not stay connect to WiFi always dropping signal. how do I update EA6700 firmware? The lastest firmware version 1.1.40.172250
Saya meyakini, kebiasaan orang Indonesia yang suka berkomentar tanpa membaca dulu secara lengkap tulisan atau unggahan (di medsos) terkait erat dengan rendahnya literasi masyarakat kita. Setidaknya ada 2 penelitian atau jajak pendapat yang menegaskan betapa rendahnya literasi masyarakat Indonesia.
Pada tahun 2016, Survei World's Most Literate Nations yang dibuat Central Connecticut State University, Amerika Serikat menempatkan literasi masyarakat Indonesia di posisi ke-60 dari 61 negara yang disurvei.
Di tingkat lokal, survei Asesmen Kompetensi Siswa Indonesia (AKSI)/Indonesia National Assessment Program (INAP) yang mengukur literasi matematika, membaca, dan sains siswa kelas IV juga menunjukkan hasil mengecewakan.
