    ASUS DDNS hostname... already Registered

    This worked almost instantly for me: First, I entered the previous router's DDNS name in the new router DDNS UI. As expected, the result was that the DDNS name was "Inactive" and the notice that it was already registered by someone else. I switched the WAN connection to the old router...

    "Best" new router that supports Merlin?

    Yeah, I jumped to the wrong conclusion. I should have paid more attention to the example pics, which are of the app.

    Ok - Thanks for that clarification.

    "Best" new router that supports Merlin?

    Does anyone know when GT-AX11000 Pro will be available in North America? I read that December 2, was the release date, but apparently that was for Japan and maybe some other locales. And I see that at least one online store in Italy is offering it.

    "Best" new router that supports Merlin?

    Thanks for implementing the ROG colors, too. It does looks like it could add a lot of work to maintain both versions, so I'll bet most will understand if you have to drop it. The ASUSWRT 2022 page (https://routerkb.asuscomm.com/?page_id=9) referenced in the Asus support download site for the...

    New router

    On my phone, about 15 ft away from the node I'm connected to, fast.com got 650-750 Mbps in 3 tests, and Analiti 450-700 Mbps in 3 tests (while streaming a 4K movie on TV). I haven't used Analiti before, so I've got some exploring to do. (Edit: Your 36 Mbps on fast.com seems low to me when your...

    New router

    I, too, have been considering the AX86U to replace my AC88U, although the comments I've been reading here seem to be lukewarm about the AX86. I thought I'd add a positive observation about a mesh system, in case it helps in any upgrade choices: My main router is an AC88U running Merlin for 5...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.14 (and 384.13_2) are now available

    I've been using Let's Encrypt on my RT-AC88U, 384.13, with only HTTP authentication (LAN access only). It provides a valid certificate for AiCloud which, of course, uses HTTPS. Now, 384.14 requires HTTPS or "BOTH" for the LE section to work (although it sticks on "Updating..."). Am I off base...

    Disabled WMM APSD for Stable Android Device Internet on Wi-Fi

    Guess I jumped the gun. Disabling this setting wasn't a panacea, at least not for the Motorola Xoom. It still gets disconnected from the Internet over Wi-Fi when it's been idle for a while. There were early versions of firmware that kept it connected to the Internet. However, Internet stability...

    Disabled WMM APSD for Stable Android Device Internet on Wi-Fi

    Thanks to redpants comments in this thread, http://www.snbforums.com/threads/rt-n66u-dropping-my-laptops-5ghz-connection-to-the-internet.21448/, I solved a long time problem over many versions of firmware of my Android phones and tablet losing Internet connection sporadically over Wi-Fi. My...

    RT-N66u dropping my laptops 5ghz connection to the internet

    Did that solve your problem? It certainly solved mine of android devices getting dropped from the Internet! (Separate thread I'll post)

    User NVRAM Save/Restore Utility (R26.2)

    That's really what I meant when I said "an attached USB drive folder" -- attached to the router's other USB port. I've had a small HDD running off my RT-N66 since the beginning, although I haven't really utilized it much. So I should be able to operate the utility from it and manage it using...

    User NVRAM Save/Restore Utility (R26.2)

    I also think this thread should be a sticky or stand out in some way. I used R9 a few weeks ago to upgrade from -45 to -49.5, and it worked great. However, I did have a couple of hiccups executing the process. It seems to me that the final step in the restore instructions is missing...

    I keep archives of older firmware and I have 26b, but not just 26. Sorry.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 376.45 is out

    I'm having the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. It periodically tells me the Internet is unstable on my RT-N66 connection and switches from the 2.4GHz connection to 4G or to the 5GHz connection. If I turn off the automatic switching on the phone and forget the 5GHz connection...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.32 is out

    Thanks - very helpful details. I think I'll give your 374.32-SDK6 a whirl since the latest Asus firmware is working for me (although the experiences of others on that thread are sure mixed). I've seen some commands referenced in the past to export and import settings into NVRAM. I wonder if...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.32 is out

    Thanks for the encouraging tip. It worked to stabilize my Android connections with no loss of speed (actually faster). I posted results in the "RT-N66U firmware 3.0.0.4.374.720 released" thread. (Now that I think about it, I've been having this web freezing issue on Android devices for...

    RT-N66U firmware 3.0.0.4.374.720 released

    With only a few hours under my belt with this firmware (up from Merlin 374.32), no problems yet. Both 2.4 & 5 GHz connections to Android devices are stable. Signal strength is about the same as before for both bands (around -65 dBm for each, opposite side of house from router). Using...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.32 is out

    A different wireless driver might help, but I understand that this 374.32 has the same driver that 270 has. I didn't have this problem of web pages not loading on Android devices with 270.26**. So I'm thinking the problem is caused by something other than the wireless driver. Instructions for...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.32 is out

    Nope. Forgetting then rejoining on my phone didn't fix it. For example, I can open Google News once or twice, then close it. Try to open again and it stalls, eventually saying that the webpage is not available (even though Internet is fine with wired access). The last time, my phone got...
