    Diversion UDP and arpa blocking - Just trying to understand

    Hi all. So with the recent Diversion update, I figured I'd take a look at my setup and follow the log file. I've noticed that diversion blocks the following; _dns.resolver.arpa lb._dns-sd._udp.XXXXX (the "XXXXX" is my "router domain name" ) This only happens when I launch my apple home app on...

    Best way to support snbforums

    I’ve really come to rely on snbforums a lot and would love to help support the site as much as I can. @thiggins I don’t know how amazon commissions work, but I do use amazon a lot these days but I’m outside of the US. Would love to be able to make sure this site gets a commission from my...

    Blocking TLDs - Skynet/Diversion/Dnsmasq?

    Hi folks. I’m running Merlin’s 384.14 on an 86U with Skynet and Diversion and pixelserv. Wondering if there’s a way to block off a whole TLD? From what I can tell, the only option is to create a ‘dnsmasq.conf.add’ as Skynet and Diversion doesn’t allow something as drastic as blocking a whole...

    OpenVpn server on router being blocked by router itself

    Hi all. Been trying to get the openvpn server running on my 86U so that I can vpn back into my router when I'm out. I'm running merlin 381.13 on a 86U with diversion and Skynet installed. So 'I've followed all the great guides posted in here and it seems like I've been able to get the server...

    M&M config resulted in something strange.

    Hi all. Decided to do a M&M config on my 87U. Was on 384.11_2 and flashed the same firmware back on. Followed the M&M instructions to the letter. Also did a NVRAM reset. All seemed fine but I now cannot access the wireless settings page for some reason; it does not fully load (refer to screen...

    Router not seeing USB during boot.

    My router does not seem to recognise a usb thumb drive during boot. After booting up, it does not see the drive until I yank it out and put it back in, then it works fine. The thumb drive has Diversion and entware on it. Tried another drive, same issue. Tried a third drive and... still the same...

    'b/g protection' greyed out and wireless mode is not effecting changes made.

    On my router the b/g protection checkbox is checked and greyed out. Without getting into a discussion about if I need this setting or not, shouldn't I have the ability to select that setting myself? I'm in 2.4. wireless settings. Another issue I see is that despite setting the 2.4 band to 'N...

    Dual WAN ipv6 settings

    Heya. I’ve been messing about with my setup again and would like to confirm behaviour that I’m noticing. I have a dual WAN setup and if I turn on ipv6, the settings for ipv6 would affect both WAN the same correct? For example, one of my ISPs does IPV6 natively and the other does a dual stack. I...

    WinSCP alternative

    Not exactly a router specific question but related (apologies if this isn’t the place to post this.) I see WinSCP being the recommended application around here. Anything similar for macOS? I’ve googled, downloaded and tried but nothing seems to work; ie, they don’t connect and I can’t access...

    Have a 87U running Merlin’s 384.5. Recently the 2.4 radio has been intermittent, it’ll disappear and reappear when I use a guest network; set up a guest network and the radio disappears. Delete the guest network and it’s back. Have tried an intitilize and fresh install of the firmware. Radio...

    Wi-Fi country code

    Hello folks. Wonder if anyone can help explain this issue that I’m experiencing. I have an ASUS 87 that’s my main router. I also have a Linksys that I set up as an AP. The funny thing is that whenever I use any of my Apple laptops or desktops to connect to my Linksys, they show the Wi-Fi...

    NAT acceleration yet again - FA specifically

    Hi everyone. I’ve searched this topic and as far as I can tell, FA seems like voodoo. It recently seems to have just disappeared. I realise that one has to turn off QOS, STP. That enables CTF and I do have that running, but no FA. Consensus seems to be not to worry about FA as CTF is more...

    What a brilliant firmware. Merlin, you really are a wizard!

    Just wanted to say thank you to Merlin for his brilliant firmware. Yesterday my ISP dropped off a new router; a Linksys “smart” router. Fired it up and my gawd! What a rude awakening. I’ve gotten so used to Merlin’s brilliant firmware that I’ve taken for granted the kind of power and control his...

    Possible to keep the same mount point?

    Apologies if this has been asked or if the thread title is confusing. Basically, I'm wondering if it is possible to get the router to mount external hard drives at the same mount points after rebooting. For example, I have a usb3 drive connected and the router mounts it to sda. I also have a...

    Is something wrong with the site?

    Is something up with the site? Was trying to access it yesterday and couldn't. Checked it with 'downforeveryoneorjistme' and it wasn't just me, site was down. Tried it today and couldn't connect either. Checked it with 'downfor...' and the site was fine, just I couldn't access it. Used my VPN US...

    HFS+ disk shows up as NTFS. Huh?

    My apologies if this has been discussed but a search did not turn up this issue. I'm using the RT87 with OS X Yosemite. I've formatted an external HD (seagate backup plus 4TB) as HFS+. Plugged it into the 87 and turned on Samba share. From OS X, I can see the drive but cannot write to it...
