I had a similar problem in which I was running older hardware with ddwrt rock solid then when I upgraded I started having problems. I never got dd-wrt to be stable for multicast at the time that I tested. It sounds like you are running a much newer version than the one that I tested. If they...

If you have your 66u's wan port connected to the 87u's lan port then devices connected to your 66u may be on a different network. Generally in this configuration I would disable dhcp on the 66u and instead of connecting it to the 87u using its wan port I would connect it using the lan port. That...

You didn't say how the 66u is connected to the 87u. Either way you are probably having the same problem we are having. I've tried all the combinations of igmp snooping on/off and different firmware (Stock, Merlin, DD-WRT) and I could not get it to work. I had other routers which I also installed...

I tried DD-WRT, Stock firmware, and Merlin builds. None of them worked. DD-WRT seems to have the same issue regardless of what router you install it on. I am currently using a netgear AC 1450 that has been flashed to AC 1750. Its using the latest stock firmware and is rock solid...

Sorry to hear man. I gave up on asus for media bridges. I now use a netgear with stock firmware as my media bridge and it works fine. I still use my AC-68U as the main router.

This is pretty frustrating. I don't know what else we can do at this point.

Dlna discovery works sporadically in one direction only. AirPlay is even worst. I tried merlins build but I had the same problems with it.

I'm sorry to hear Shelbrain, looks like asus didn't fix our issues after all. malazaba, In media bridge mode it seems there is a problem passing IGMP traffic which is what allows the discovery of Airplay/DLNA devices. Once connected, the traffic is UDP unicast. So if you are seeing dropouts...

Anyone had any luck with the new firmware? It made no difference for me.

I have IGMP snooping disabled everywhere and that seems to help with it connecting but it still seems to be random. The problem could be with the linux library/implementation that these routers are using. I had the same problem with my ddwrt ea6500. My plan is also to revert my bridge to the...

The only hope I see right now is the new firmware that asus announced. There is a discussion here: http://forums.smallnetbuilder.com/showthread.php?t=21632

Did you ever figure this out? A few of us still have the issue. IGMP snooping doesn't fix the issue. See: http://forums.smallnetbuilder.com/sh...ia+bridge+mdns

I'm having the same exact problem. I have two AC68Us, one is my main router, the other is in my living room acting as a media bridge. TV/Stereo Receiver -> AC68U (media bridge) -> AC68U (Main Router) -> PC/Wireless devices My stereo receiver supports airplay; however, it does not work when...
