    Solved *SOLVED* Asus RT-AX86U Pro on latest Merlin 3004.388.4, cannot get RT-AC68U (on any firmware) to connect as a AI Mesh Node

    Hello all, so I recently upgraded my router to the AX86U Pro. Loaded the latest Merlin firmware on it 3004.388.4 and then loaded the latest Merlin 386.12_0 on the AC68U. I have also tried loading the most recent stock firmware FW_RT_AC68U_300438651665 onto the AC router since it will just be a...

    I work from home and have an Asus (Merlin flashed) RT-AC68U router running Skynet and Diversion if any of that matters for potential implementations. My company uses various methods to remote in for maintenance and such, including RDS and Cisco Any Connect VPN client. Not sure what other...

    Home network monitoring software

    Can anyone recommend software (free preferred) I can install/run on my Win 10 laptop that will give me more detailed traffic monitoring than what I get just using the Asus router interface? Like I'd like to see, in real time, packet loss/data rate, etc... of each port on the AC68U's integrated...

    Family Controls missing from Merlin builds?

    On 384.7_2 on RT-AC68U and I have access to Family Controls on the android app, but unable to find it in the interface in Chrome on laptop. Additionally, when I set up rules that say for instance block a device from 00:00 to 06:00 Mon-Fri (like my daughter's phone) it blocks it but randomly...

    Asus router log entries

    So is there a resource "for dummies" on how to understand all of the various entries in the router system log? Like this: kernel: Init chrdev /dev/detector with major 190 Jul 30 18:47:49 kernel: tdts: tcp_conn_max = 8000 Jul 30 18:47:49 kernel: tdts: tcp_conn_timeout = 300 sec Jul 30...

    Impressions after implementing new security..

    Prior to this I just had the AC68U running Merlin firmware with default settings, just basic WPA2 security password enabled. Otherwise there were no security features in place. Things worked well but I have recently become aware that my situation wasn't the best. So I decided to update and...

    MerlinWRT 380_65_2 schedule reboot not working

    No matter how many times I toggle it on or off, reboot router, change day or time, the RT-AC68U running Merlin 380_65_2 refuses to automatically reboot. Is there some sort of dependency elsewhere in the firmware for this to work? Thanks

    Flashed 380_65_2, web gui unavailable

    My RT-AC68U has been flashed by me to MerlinWRT 380_65_2 successfully and was running great. After a week or two I went in to check a setting using web browser. It rejects the request to the router IP. Tried multiple browsers, clearing browsers cache, all the stuff I read here recommended...

    Why upgrade to AC class router?

    Hi all first post. Yes I have been searching and aparrently the issue I am having isn't commonly inquired about. I consider myself more competent than the casual home user capable of and having flashed multiple WRT54G routers with DDWRT and configuring a relatively crowded home network with...
