    Samba Resharing Function

    A shot in the dark: I have an older NAS that supports only SMB v1. Modern devices (iPads, Mac OS) seem to not support it and only support SMB v2. Is there a function where the router connects to a NAS via SMB v1 and exposes it to the network as a SMB V2?

    New Asus Router Upgrade Recommendation

    Merlin, I ordered the ac66u b1 and was looking at differencea between the 68u . 68u has mesh support where it's not listed for the ac66u_b1. Is that a firmware difference that is resolved with flashing your firmware or is there an actual electrical/mechanic difference? Thanks, Zhenya

    New Asus Router Upgrade Recommendation

    Folks, I have an n66 and it's been lovely with Merlin. Lately I've had many issues like Google Assistant search not going through, streaming dropping etc so I figured maybe this is a good time for a new router. What are folks running now that's stable and fairly modern? Obviously Merlin...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 380.62_1 is now available

    Flashed this over _58 on N66. No reboot and seems to be working perfect. I did not expect my stupidity to pay-off so well.

    Is someone trying to hack into my wifi??

    I have thought about this quite a bit. I have the tools necessary to see if my network is being attacked but the knowledge to expose it. It would be fantastic is we have a tab in the network tools that helped expose suspicious connections. This would help novices learns how to spot these kind...

    .56 development?

    Merlin, Is this delay standard for the n66? I am starting to get nervous that they are slowly dropping support for the old workhorse.

    Wireless Webcam for Merlin

    Hi All, I am expecting a baby in the coming month :eek:. My wife and I would love to have the ability to monitor the baby from a different room. Most of my colleagues and friends love the dropcam/nestcam but I am absolutely opposed to having a 24hr video and audio feed of my house to someone...

    USB HDD Spontaneously started unmounting itself

    All, I've had my N66 with .50 Merlin running for a while without an issue for a while now. Since the update I have had almost zero issue with the attached USB HDD (wall-powered). In the last two days, the drive has been unmouting itself - here is the log that could possibly be showing the issue...

    Core consistently @ 100% and [Core load in SSH does match System Status]

    Guys, thanks for the replies. I reset the router and redid all the settings - I'm still pegged @ 100%. Is it possible that the 1.5 TB drive is somehow really taxing the router? I'm concerned that 1) I will have a hardware failure if I continue to run this router @100% 2) that I am not...
