ROG Rapture GT-AC5300 Support

[joemoney]

Hello! I'd like to get Asuswrt-Merlin running on my GT-AC5300. I've been using the firmware for a long time on my AC-66U and would like to get it running on my new router since the AC-66U isn't being supported anymore.

I tried flashing the RT-AC5300 firmware to see if it would work but I got an "Invalid Firmware Upload" error message. Would it be possible to modify the RT-AC5300 firmware to run on the GT-AC5300? I looked around the forum but didn't find anything. Any help would be awesome!

Sorry, it cannot be done.

Q: Will you support the GT-AC5300?
A: No, because of infrequent GPL releases from Asus (mandatory for proper support by Asuswrt-Merlin), the amount of work involved in supporting this specific model, and its low popularity due to its high price.
