Has anyone managed to connect to this router at wired gigabit speed? So far I've tried 3 different routers of the same model and none of them will work with any of the gigabit gear I have. These are all "known working" devices/cables as well.
I hope it's just a firmware issue and not a permanent flaw within the general hardware of all the RT-N56U.

I am having issues as well. Upgraded firmware, exchanged for a new router. All didnt help. Guess have to wait for dd-wrt or blast their support centre again...

I have no problems with my wired Gigabit PC (Realtek PCI GBE) & laptop (Netgear GA511 card) to this router. Using CAT 6 wiring. Orange lights on the LAN ports and Windows confirms 1.0 Gpbs link.
Using latest Asus firmware 1.0.1.3. Very stable and a fast router indeed. _________________ E3000 (converted from WRT610NV2)

Just managed to fix my problem.
Needed to disable IPv6.
Apparently that causes some problems with various routers.

Hmm...my PC with Vista64 has IPV6 on by default and it still connects at 1.0 Gbps. _________________ E3000 (converted from WRT610NV2)

Hello,
is this router enough to handle 100/100mbit fiber, pressing torrents with alot of connections 24/7?
If your network connection is supported by the N56U at all this router will very likely be your best shot at wirespeed performance with many connections except for some dedicated high end routing devices.
The performance claims of Ralink and Netgear regarding the HW NAT are -- as you probably can imagine -- somewhat tricky to verify except by trying in a real life environment. ;)
I'd say give it a shot and please let me know what you find.
I have asus 56 router. In the beginning I thought that this router is very good. Every thing worked great. But now I can find the attached usb hdd with my boxee or PS3. Download master does not work as it can't find the usb device. Maybe someone here knows how to solve it?

sry to say, but will have a computer running as firewall in a day or two... I got tired of trying out different routers that do not work, so this will be a nice conversion =) hope you find your answer.
Anybody here have any similar issues as me? I am having frequent disconnections such as below and its really driving me nuts. I am using the latest firmware and Windows 7.
Mar 19 21:42:48 RT-N56U: udhcpc starts
Mar 19 21:42:48 dhcp client: deconfig: lease is lost
Mar 19 21:42:48 kernel: ip_table: set wan_name=eth3
Mar 19 21:42:48 WAN Connection: WAN was exceptionally disconnected.
Mar 19 21:42:49 detectWAN: perform DHCP renew
Mar 19 21:42:49 kernel: ip_table: set wan_name=eth3
Mar 19 21:42:50 RT-N56U: udhcpc starts
Mar 19 21:42:50 kernel: ip_table: set wan_name=eth3
Mar 19 21:42:50 WAN Connection: WAN was restored.
Mar 19 21:42:50 kernel: ip_table: set wan_name=eth3
My ISP only allows dynamic IP hence I cant set a static IP to try and see if that resolves the issue.
Anyone have issue for LAN to LAN? I tried using VNC within same subnet but failed. Tried using port forward also helpless.
Yup. I couldn't use VNC either. What's more annoyingly though is that when my wifi is protected, my Android phones won't event see the wifi. The firmware on this is really sucky to be honest. Had to go back to my WNDR3700 until the issues are resolved. I'm hoping for a dd-wrt release for it.
I submited my req to Asus for 2 weeks also no solution yet. Hopefully DD-WRT can be the rescue.
I am using UltraVnc 1.0.8.2, and server - RT-N56U - Internet - RT-N56U - client with opening both HWNAT of RT-N56U. The connection is working fine and well.

Hi, thanks, I manage to use the VNC, is my bad, the dst server FW blocked it.
