Agreed, this my decision!!

They didn't make that change to prevent saving the password. They made it because the old architecture was very easy to exploit through crosssite vulnerabilities. Look at their changelogs for the past 12-18 months, notice the amount of XSS security fixes they had to do. The new token-based system resolves almost all of these, as well as future issues of that specific nature.
This is a very welcome security improvement. It still has a few rough edges to sort out (such as the logout issues when changing anything on the System page), but these can be resolved.

Actually, it's a very smart decision on their part, and shows they are taking security seriously. Something a lot of home-enthusiast routers have neglected for far too long.
For my part, I told my browsers to never save *any* passwords long ago. If you do want to make it a little easier, I suggest using an encrypted password database program like the freely available KeePass.

Some posts ago Rmerlin mentions terminal code to qry the various temperatures in the unit.
qcsapi_sockrpc get_temperature
However this returns a value not found on the Performance Tuning page or SysInfo page.
"temperature_bbic_internal = 60.0" in my case.
Is it possible to put this on these pages and what part of the unit is this temp from ?
Also the 2.4ghz temp does not show with this qry , nor with cat /proc/dmu/temperature.

in tools menu i see temperature_rfic_internal not bbic. In my case i see in telnet
in tools menu i see 69C for 5GHz
btw. what is bbic ??
Code:
admin@RTAC87U:/tmp/home/root# qcsapi_sockrpc get_temperature
temperature_rfic_external = 0.0
temperature_rfic_internal = 69.1
temperature_bbic_internal = 75.0btw. what is bbic ??

No idea, that's all there is in the Quantenna SDK:
Code:
/**@addtogroup StatisticsAPIs
*@{*/
/**
* @brief Get RFIC temperature
*
* Get RFIC temperature
*
* \param temp_exter Buffer to contain the returned RFIC external temperature.
* \param temp_inter Buffer to contain the returned RFIC internal temperature.
* \param temp_bbic Buffer to contain the returned BBIC temperature.
*
* \return 0 if the command succeeded.
* \return A negative value if an error occurred. See @ref mysection4_1_4 "QCSAPI Return Values"
* for error codes and messages.
*
* Note: Use the following method to convert a value returned from <c>temp_exter</c> or <c>temp_inter</c>
* or <c>temp_bbic</c> into degrees Celsius.<br>
* @code
* float rfic_temperature_extr, rfic_temperature_inter, bbic_temperature;
* rfic_temperature_extr = temp_exter / 100000.0f;
* rfic_temperature_inter = temp_inter / 1000000.0f;
* bbic_temperature = temp_bbic / 1000000.0f;
* @endcode
*
* \callqcsapi<br>
*
* <c>call_qcsapi get_temperature</c>bbic was only added in a later revision of the SDK.

Searching for BBIC Quantenna gets me this pdf:
http://teknowrite.com/qt/QHSRFIC3_QT1518_1002Rev1.0_Datasheet_012210.pdf
I think looking at below picture it is the temp of Quantenna soc.
So we have the temp of 2,4Ghz , 5Ghz, CPU broadcom, Soc Quantenna or so i think ..
I know it is not the latest chip and not the chip used here its just for the picture.

Sorry,
I was under the impression that you didn't know what bbic meant.
But a while back in this thread this was already discussed:
http://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-rt-ac87-firmware-official-releases.18385/page-40#post-160466
Anyway, is it possible to include the socs temperature in the web gui ?

It's on RMerlin's firmware, I'll suggest it to the stock also.

As far as i know it is not on merlin fw. I am running that, and the one i mentioned is not shown in the gui. The other ones are in the gui though.

I have sent yesterday an e-mail to the contact I have. Hope he has something to share, because ASUS@SG hasn't share anything yet.

Did you check with ASUS and they allow you to check?

What? Sorry didn't understand your question.
They usually share me betas, and they don't have any problem with me sharing it.
But usually ASUS@SG shares betas earlier than them.
