    Force LAN port 4 to use the Guest network for Asus/merlin RT-AC68U

    I have found that it's necessary to check for the existence of my custom VLAN before creating it because the firmware sometimes does not clear out the Ethernet bridge tables before calling firewall-start. EXAMPLE: /jffs/scripts/firewall-start # RT-AC68U: create vlan14 only if it does not exist...

    Guest Network Different DNS Server

    I would like to know this too. FYI, the router has two bridge tables. ebtables -t filter -L ebtables -t broute -L

    RT-AC68U high reported temps

    On mines I use a bungie cord to hold 2x large USB-powered fans to the back of the unit. RT-AC68U overclocked to 1200MHz. CPU temp is 52C. Ambient 21C.

    Force LAN port 4 to use the Guest network for Asus/merlin RT-AC68U

    I'm not the forum expert on vlans and bridging. That said, I would probably have to guess at it. For your RT-AC87U will it work? Type 'brctl show' Pick a vlan in the list you want to modify. For you it's probably vlan1. Type 'robocfg show' to see the ports for the vlan1. For you this ports...

    USB 3.0 + Solid State Disk problem

    I cannot use my 120GB SSD on the USB 3.0 port of the router because of this problems. See the attached syslog below, complete with a kernel stack trace. However, the SSD works fine when plugged into the USB 2.0 port. Soon I will test it with an externally powered USB 3.0 enclosure. Maybe...

    DuckDNS Setup

    If you must use telnet, try this: telnet 192.168.1.1 user: admin password: admin cat /jffs/scripts/ddns-start cat > /jffs/scripts/ddns-start Now copy script to clipboard and paste into the telnet window. CTRL-D to save changes CTRL-C to exit without saving changes chmod a+rwx...

    SSH Connection Issue

    Sometimes dropbear crashes and there's no way to login remotely. Here's way that could automatically restart dropbear, when it is not running. /jffs/scripts/services-start #!/bin/sh cru a CheckSSHD "*/5 * * * * (/bin/pidof dropbear 2>&1 >/dev/null || /sbin/run_sshd)"

    [RT-AC87U]: question on my set-up

    What is the Subnet mask for the LAN? What is the Gateway address for LAN? I don't use PPoE, but maybe your ISP is somehow assigning a Subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 which would put all your devices on the same network?

    Shared HDD on AC66U keeps reverting to read-only

    I had this similar problem and it was a bad SATA III to USB 3.0 cable for my SSD. What made it worse is that MiniDLNA would automatically try to rescan the media folder everytime it happened. So it would spike the CPU and bog down the router at arbitrary times. Just use a good shielded cable...

    RT-AC68U - Interrupts only handled by core 0 & router slowness

    Maybe the mtdblock3 indicates JFFS reads, not writes? You are running a web server on the router, that is reading web pages from JFFS, but it is not writing back to JFFS? Here's my htop: PID USER PRI NI VIRT RES SHR S CPU% MEM% TIME+ Command 254 admin 20 0 0 0...

    Use AC86U as a webserver

    No USB stick is necessary for simple web pages. The router already has a simple web server that you could extend. Make a user web page on the router: echo "<b>This user web page is stored in the router's RAM.</b>" > /var/wwwext/mypage.html Access from browser...

    TOR as a DNS resolver?

    I tried this and it worked, but is it a good idea? TOR can make secure DNS lookups, similar to Dnscrypt. I could use TOR as a DNS resolver for my entire network? /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add no-resolv server=127.0.0.1#9053 # tor

    Dnscrypt from opendns

    Success. I compiled Dnscrypt 1.4.3 for ARM, dependent only on the firmware, just like yours. Are these file sizes too big? Can you please say how did you remove the bloat? Do my './configure' lines have too many unnecessary switches? I used the ARM toolchain of the Asuswrt-Merlin firmware...
