    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.6 is now available

    Yep, same here: After update to 3004.388.6 (coming from .5) I found dnsmasq not working anymore. See syslog entries: /tmp/syslog.log May 5 07:05:04 dnsmasq[1193]: illegal repeated keyword at line 59 of /etc/dnsmasq.conf May 5 07:05:04 dnsmasq[1193]: FAILED to start up By looking into the...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.5 is now available

    I run spdmerlin on my AX88U for long time and no issues with all the latest firmware versions from Merlin - maybe it's an issue with your setup / incompatibility of add-ons?

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 is now available

    "DFS Out of range (OoR)" is defined by the formula "DFS OoR = The * Router² / √Does * Not * Sniff³ * It" - this is the exact scientific definition of DFS OoR! 🤣

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 is now available

    Strange! My AX88U runs stable until I decide to reboot (for what ever reason). Sounds to me like a hardware issue or shortage on memory (if you would run additional stuff and USB-Sticks/Disk).

    Unexpected troubles when swapping from official to Merlin firmware

    Long story short: The firmware update/downgrade to Merlin did not work. I had this behavior during previous updates from one Merlin version to the next one on my AX88U (not Pro). The "solution" was to factory reset the router BEFORE the firmware update and do an absolute minimum config (no...

    ax88u custom configuration script

    On which router model do you have this issue? Typically the update fails due memory shortage - unplug the USB-Stick(s) and reboot - try the update immediately after reboot (without USB-Sticks). To clear memory cache without reboot you can use this commands on the command line (SSH login): free...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 beta is now available

    And now on Beta3 - still all good on my main router (AX88U)! 👍

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 beta is now available

    This is the reboot FINISHED message, saying that the time server (NTP) got the actual time - you need to post the log BEFORE reboot to find the reason. The reboot starts with: So we need to know what happens before that. You can easily copy the log entries from the web interface by Ctrl-A and...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 3004.388.4 beta is now available

    And always remember: unused memory is vested memory (and money) - let the Linux kernel use all the memory you have! :cool:

    Router and client show different IP addresses for client

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    The Client Status page always was (and still is) a fluffy list of devices - better it would be removed to avoid this kind of confusion. If you like to see the wireless connected devices you go to System Log / Wireless Log for a reliable information - the rest (fixed line) of devices you can...

    Should I use QOS on a 500mbps connection?

    Same here: Not needed on my 500/50 connection - as it never gets much loaded!

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.2 is now available for select models

    Updated my AX88U this morning from 388.1 to .2 - all good during the day! 'Feels' smooth and fast - especially OpenVPN raised in speed!

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 388.1 is now available for all supported Wifi 6 models

    Deepl.com says: "How come ASUS ET12 is not in the list of 388.1?"

    Merlin thought that you should see this

    Au contraire, mon frère! He is doing it with 0 used Swap - what a waste on the usb device: defining 2gb of space, but not needing it! Nevertheless interesting: The AXE16000 does not even need/use 50% of the RAM - so clearly no need for Swap at all!

    AX88U Roaming Assistant not works since 386.8

    In my case roaming work like a charm between the AX88U (running 386.8 firmware) and the Access Point AC87U (running stock firmware). As stated by @Tech9: Looks like your issue is not related to the actual firmware...

    Future predictions - which AX router will be supported longest?

    The AX88U is also my bet (see footer) - given the latest SDK and GPL updates, the quotes are raising at my local bookmaker... :cool: ;) It runs now over 2 years and counting - so my initial bet is starting to pay back! :) On the other hand, my crystal ball is getting quite foggy, when I try to...
