    PSA - Check TrendMicro Signature

    Not a big item, but since my system has been stable for a while I have not gone into the device for a few weeks. I did this morning and noticed my TrendMicro Signature was on version 2.388 (Early Feb) and since then, even after updating to 386.12._6 a few weeks ago. A manual check triggered...

    Simple Route Add Command

    I'd like to be able to reach my Fiber / ONT's internal web server from my internal network. ONT is only a Bridge/Media Converter. It's web page listens on 192.168.0.254; I verified by connecting a laptop directly to it. My RT-AC86U's WAN port is (obviously) plugged into the ONT. My...

    Scribe Help Tweaking crash.log parameters

    The default crash.log doesn't capture all the events, I'm looking for ideas to enhance it but not pull in stuff it shouldn't. Example - with the occasional asd faults, I end up with the entries below... Ideally the 5 entries that went to the system log should go to crash.log. I was thinking...

    RT-AC86U Thermal Upgrade Guide

    TL;DR Re-did the thermals on my two RT-AC86U with new Thermal Pads AND switch to Copper Pads for the CPU. Temps dropped from 90-95c to 75-76c. This is not a message to rehash the problems, perceived design defect or other opinions about the RT-AC86U. I just wanted a guide like this so I didn't...

    How is Crashlog.log supposed to work?

    I have only an occasional (dare I say rare) crash but when I do, I can never find /jffs/crashlog.log - as I would expect to find. I see this... May 5 01:05:06 kernel: [JFFS2 DBG] (1) jffs2_sum_write_data: Not enough space for summary, padsize = -427 May 5 01:05:06 kernel...

    Scribe Logging stopped - for no reason

    Since 386.2_2 things have been stable with my setup since a fresh install with the latest. I've ignored my router for 4-5 days, I went in this morning just to scan the logs and see if any issues were logged. Logging Stopped 5 days ago. So frustrating. I was away on Saturday, we had a number of...

    Scribe Logging stops after changing Router System settings

    I've noticed that logging is stopping after I sometimes change/save a setting in the System section. For example, I turned off DNS monitoring in the System. I know this bounces a few services, etc. However I know I have an issue when I see this as the last item logged. Mar 23 11:46:40...

    Issue since starting over - 386.1_2

    At random, multiple times each day my log shows what appears to be a WAN bounce. Because of the randomness I'm not able to watch and see if the WAN LED goes Red. I have no speed or latency performance issues, I don't see my work VPN connections reestablished, no streaming is ever interrupted...

    v386.1_2 Fresh Config from Scratch

    (edited to simplify my TL;DR original post) I've done a couple a couple of full resets and manual reconfigs over the past month. Both with v386.1_2 and v386.2b2 to test some variations. @RMerlin I think there's a timing or sequence issue with dnsmasq. When wireless restarts, there's this...

    uiScribe Log Goes Here

    I had a odd issue with my RT-AC86U running 384.19 a few weeks back. I only run scribe, scmerlin and conmon. I had not checked the router for a few weeks and when I decided to log in and take a look at the logs, the web interface reverted back to the standard syslog view. In summary, after...
