    Are ASUS remote connetions Secure

    For #1 and #3 you could try https://hqt.ro/owncloud-through-lighttpd-entware-ng/ (if you put chrooted debian from the same site guides it can be installed with apt-get) and use it trough it's web interface. For #2 possibly it's android client would be useful but as far as I remember that piece...

    Urgent help needed please

    Geez...setting google's dns servers instead of "Connect to DNS Server automatically" solved all my issues. Including transmission-daemon issues which I noticed reported by others too here for example...

    Urgent help needed please

    Hi, I have an RT-AC56U with Merlin 384.4_2 now. I have chrooted debian where I install pretty much everything I want including transmission-daemon. Everything worked pretty well for me for years with this setup until I installed the latest Merlin - probably cause I didn't changed anything else...

    PPTP VPN server question

    This could be a more general PPTP question but as I'm trying to do everything from the router's web config with Merlin I post it here. I noticed that when I use a PPTP server all internet traffic is routed trough VPN ("tracert google.com" gives the router address on the first line). How can I...

    Make devices that are via wifi extender act as if in guest network

    As I sayed, I need the extender connected to the main wifi in the router. It's a D'Link DCH-M225 and I need it's DLNA features in the main network, but if other DLNA devices connect trough it they don't function properly and I don't want to add another wifi. I would actually want to remove the...

    Make devices that are via wifi extender act as if in guest network

    Hi, I have a extender which I need to connect to the main wifi. The extender is very dumb so there's not much I can do from there. I want to set the extended SSID/pass as the ones of my guest network but this way devices connected trough it do have access intranet resources (unlike guest...

    Kernel on AC56U

    Maybe a stupid question but, since Merlin doesn't touch the kernel, would there be a way to flash DD-WRT which comes with a newer one, backup the new kernel or something, flash Merlin again and somehow get the newer kernel from DD-WRT along with Merlin?

    DLNA number of files limit?

    I actually added 964 children stories in mp3 format (there are duplicates but didn't got a chance to clean it, as I just got a wifi speaker with DLNA support) just before I noticed this. That beside the movies/series I have.

    DLNA number of files limit?

    Hi, Any chance that the DLNA server that you configure from the web ui has a limit for the number of files it can index or something like that? My latest files added are not seen neither from windows (10) media player nor the LG's SmartShare (WebOS) which I usually use. If go by folder from the...

    Should I attach this Seagate Expansion drive to a router?

    First of, I don't know if this is the best sub forum for this but I couldn't figure better. I have an ASUS RT-AC56U and a 2T Seagate Expansion http://www.seagate.com/gb/en/consumer/backup/expansion-hard-drive/ which I want to connect to it's USB. This may be a silly question but is OK for such...

    Dropbear around 50% CPU normal?

    Well, using top I was connected. Attached is a picture from the administration GUI (I don't know how I could see CPU% other then logged in). Around the red line (on pic) I killed the ssh client and it doesn't seem to improve. But also while I was connected top didn't reflect the close to 100%...

    Dropbear around 50% CPU normal?

    Hi, On my AC56U with merlin 378.65_2 I just noticed this: PID PPID USER STAT VSZ %VSZ CPU %CPU COMMAND 18232 29338 admin R 1172 0.4 0 49.2 dropbear -p [XXX] -s -j -k Where [XXX] is the port I use as SSH service port. Is it normal that %CPU as it never seem to go under 45? Thanks

    Hard disc plugged in both USBs

    Hi, I have a cable with 2 USBs in one end (the one for computer). My feeling is that the disk I intend to use with my AC56U works better on a computer when I attach both those. Would it be safe to do that on the router in it's both ports (running Merlin if that matters)? Should I expect any...

    AICloud 2.0 worked but not anymore

    A restart made it work. Still the additional questions remain. Also: how can I properly block WAN access to AICloud and allow only LAN and VPN?

    AICloud 2.0 worked but not anymore

    Hi I was able to successfully start AICloud and connect to it on my my RT-AC56U running merlin. Then I wanted to see if it's supposed to work only with either Cloud Disk or Smart Access enabled so i started to disable those. Now, without doing anything else it won't work anymore when I enable...
