    Diversion Blocking percentage

    I recently moved from running AGH on a Mac, to Diversion on my RT-AX86U. I am running the same blocking list, OISD large, but I see that my percentage of blocked destinations is much lower on Diversion. OISD running on AGH blocked about 7% of traffic, but on Diversion it is only 1.2%. Any...

    ControlD with Merlin

    I have been testing ControlD DNS with encryption. I have been entering the server settings directly into the Merlin interface for DOT. Results have been unstable. One of the developers at ControlD says I should use DOH by installing their daemon onto the router. Their reasoning for wanting me...

    Using DOT DNS breaks ECS

    I noticed that if I use the DOT version of Google DNS servers in the WAN settings, that ECS data is not being passed to Google. If I turn off DOT and just use unencrypted 8.8.8.8 then ECS data is properly sent to Google. Is this a limitation of DOT in general or the implementation of DOT in Merlin?

    Problems with Sophos RED behind RT-AX86U

    I work from home managing 120 Macs across the country. To connect to my companies network I have a Sophos RED VPN device. My work Mac is connected directly to the RED and the RED is connected to the RT-AX86U. I use Apple Remote Desktop to remote into the Macs. Every now and then I lose all ARD...

    ntpMerlin Time not syncing between devices

    I installed NTP Merlin on my RT-AX86U 3 days ago and it is running properly as far as I can tell, but today I started getting warnings and errors from various devices on my network that they were off time. Some by a few seconds, other by several minutes. Is there any thing in particular I...

    5ghz wifi randomly slow/laggy

    I am trying to help a neighbor who has a RT-AX1800s router. He says that it randomly becomes very slow on 5ghz and lags so bad he can't stream movies. Wired devices have no issues, so we ruled out his ISP (ATT Fiber) Changing channels or restarting helps for a day or so and then it slows again...

    Recall Config after factory reset

    Is my thinking right on this, if I do a factory reset to clear any cruff out of my two year old AX86U and then recall my saved config I will get all the cruff back? I really think after two years of updates and setting changes a reset would be a good idea but the thought of having to re-enter...

    Correct DNS settings to use AdGuard Home

    I am running AdGuard Home on one of my machines and I want to make sure that all DNS requests go thru AdGuard. These are the settings I did. It seems to be working properly but I want to double check. Router WAN points to the local machine running AdGuard for IPv4 and IPv6. DNS Director set to...

    Diversion Pixelserv profile

    Hoping someone can help me. I used to use Diversion and installed the pixelserv profile on my iPhone. At some point the profile got removed but the SSL certificate is still stuck on my phone. I am told the only way to get rid of the cert is to reinstall the profile and then delete it. Would...

    NextDNS CLI problem

    I installed the latest version of the CLI on my ax86 and I’m noticing the router has started to throw unassigned buffer errors and other issues. Then today the CLI stopped working, and had to be reinstalled. Are there any known issues with NextDNS and Merlin 386.5?

    Help with IPv6 issue and local streaming

    While this is not specifically a ASUS/Merlin issue I hope that some of the more network savvy people here may have an idea. I run an RT-AX86U on Google Fiber. On my network I have a Channels DVR server running on a 2011 MacBook (High Sierra) It the only thing that MacBook does. When I enable...

    Ethernet Flow Control

    Is there a way to turn off Pause Frames (Ethernet flow control) in the AX86? I have discovered this is the cause of random pauses on my network but not all of my devices allow me to turn it off at the source, so I am hoping to stop the pause frames in the router.
