[Important Notice] How does iOS 14 Local Network permission affect ASUS Router app’s functionality?

With the new launch of iOS 14, Apple introduced a number of privacy changes. One of them is local network permission. When an app needs to access devices on your local network, it must now ask for permission to find and connect with devices on the local network.

To discover and communicate with your ASUS router(s) via ASUS Router app, you have to approve this permission request. Without this permission, this app will fail to connect to your local network. If you have seen the following notice, please enable Local Network permission on your Apple device.
