    I recently cloned and successfully compiled a copy of the asuswrt-merlin.ng // src-rt-5.02hnd for the Asus GT-AC2900 router using amcfwm. I did some search/replace on the amcfwm script to acknowledge my AC-2900's existence. The newly compiled firmware matches the file size of the merlin...

    Asus GT-AC2900 Owners -- Do u have Wifi Radar Issues?

    Just purchased an Asus GT-AC2900 router. It's using stock firmware (3.0.0.4.384_82072). Was wondering if anyone noticed any peculiar behavior with the built-in Wifi Radar? The issues relate to the 5 Ghz frequency. Problem #0: Wi-Fi Radar doesnt always refresh to reflect the current AP...

    Could all AX devices / stations connect via AC at 160 Mhz?

    I'm considering purchasing the Asus GT-AC2900 over the Asus RT-AC86U since it supports both DFS and 160 Mhz channel width (both hardware are identical but only the GT model reveals this extra). But as far as i can tell no smart TV or phones support the 160 Mhz channel width. For future...
