XB8 with Asus router

My XB8 wifi doesn't extend to my garage. I ran a RJ45 from the xb and connected it to an Asus router. There is a printer connected to wifi on the asus. How can I use that printer from a computer connected via wifi to the XB8. Thanks. Don [Edited: "Personal Information"]

Tech says He's seeing 1967Mbps Download speed at XB8, so why am I only seeing 600Mbps at my Router?

Here's the story. Any advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from 1G to 2G and had to rent an XB8 to get the upload speeds (Another story).

unexplained increase in data usage

Since upgrading to a higher speed with new modem (Arris S33), my data usage has increased dramatically even overnight. My wifi router and windows 11 network disagree usage with what Xfinity shows as data usage. Somehow, Xfinity shows me using about 1 GB an hour even when no one is using the network.
