Where's my Asus Router?

I am so ready to throw out this stupid Firewalla Gold.   I detest its interface already.

So I installed it between a Spectrum modem and an Asus gaming router.   Put the Asus into AP bridge mode per instructions.   

I can get out on the internet as before.    But where is my Asus router?  I want to get into the Asus admin page to manage the WiFi components.   It is no longer at 192.168.1.1 like before.  (Yet the Charter modem is at 192.168.100.1 as before0

 

GROWL!

  tap on "devices"; you will see Asus units listed there;  tap on it (them) to get the IP

  Nope, but thanks for replying.   There are ZERO devices shown with Asus.   Of the 12 devices shown, all are accounted for (known).   None are Asus or even Unknown.   Yes, I know the Asus is there and working, because it is handling the WiFi normally.

  Almost like Firewalla moved it to someplace else.

   

  So frustrating.    I want my Firewalla Blue back

  Do you happen to know the MAC address (starting bits) of your asus router? if you do, tap on devices, and then search for that.

  So far, with all the known router/AP units, we've never seen one unit (AP or bridge mode) that hides itself inside the LAN.

  I want to smash this Firewalla to pieces.   Going to remove it, factory reset the router, restore it back to normal pre-install, then decide if I should epay this junk or not.    What a waste of time and effort, all because Firewalla Blue was end of life.  Sigh.      Needless to say, I will not be recommending Firewalla anymore.    Such frustration

  Sorry about the experience. May I know if you can find the Asus router? It is really not possible for the firewalla to hide Asus router ... likely something else is going on. I have created a ticket for you, and our support can help you out.
