[Teaming Port] How to setup link aggregation on RT-AC87U
Note. RT-AC87U only supports WINDOWS 8.1 multichannel SAMBA, does not support 802.3ad.
Steps:
1. Remove 802.3ad configuration from the NAS (device).
2. Connect either of the two LAN ports on NAS (device) to either of the two LAN ports on RT-AC87U with two RJ45 network cables.
3. Set the NAS (device) with different IP address for LAN1 and LAN2 (For example, LAN1 IP as 192.168.1.20 LAN2 IP as 192.168.1.30).
4. The data link from RT-AC87U to the NAS (device) will be combined by two RJ45 network cables for Link Aggregation.
Suggestion:
For higher Over-the-Air throughput performance, please use LAN1 and LAN2 on RT-AC87U
For higher file transferring performance from USB, please use the combination pairing from LAN2 to LAN
