Hi,
I'm new to Merlin, and have it installed on an RT-N66U.
Why is the temperature readout under Administration called Performance Tuning?
Thanks,
Anton
Because during early development of the RT-N66U (the first router based on Asuswrt), Asus were considering implementing a cooling fan. That page was containing the temperature, fan speed, and settings to increase the wireless output power. All of these together were related to performance tuning.
The cooling fan got scrapped before the product launch, so Asus removed the page. I added it back to keep its temperature monitoring features. Everything else was scrapped.
Do you know what the temperature parameters are for the RT-N66U router are?
Just look at the performance tuning. I'm gonna guess it's 80~90F.Sorry, I mean what the temperature range is for normal operation, ie. what's the hottest the router should get if it's in healthy condition.
