    [Fork] Asuswrt-Merlin 374.43 LTS releases (Archive)

    John I've recently switched my N66U into AP mode and turned off the wifi since I was forced to buy a new router with an internal modem to upgrade my internet connection. This router has AC so that's why I'm using its wifi. At this point is there even a difference for me if I use vanilla Merlin...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 376.44 Beta 1 is out

    Thanks for the quick answer. I guess I'll have to wait till they upgrade the internet in my area since I wanted to update my router then. Hopefully will only be a few months and maybe the price of the AC87U will go a bit down by then ;)

    Asuswrt-Merlin 376.44 Beta 1 is out

    Is the new QoS system already in place? And if it is can I use it with a N66U?

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.33 is out

    I use both bands in general but for streaming to the TV I use 2.4 GHz since the WiFi stick doesn't do 5Ghz.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.33 is out

    Since someone was asking I just wanted to mention that downgrading to the SDK5 version of 33 fixed my streaming issues.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.33 is out

    For the most part out of convenience. The TV isn't mission critical so I don't need maximum speed or low latency. I mean as long as the transfer speed is high enough to stream HD video. So I'd rather not add another cord into the room which is full of them since the PC and equipment for it are...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.33 is out

    For me the wireless performance with the latest version on my NT-66U is really bad. I've mostly seen it when trying to access media files on my NAS or when I try to access the internet with my phone. Especially on the NAS it's really slow to navigate files and when a video file is started it...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.354.27 Beta 1

    I had some connection problems earlier when I read about the 150Mbit thing and was trying things out. I did have trouble reconnecting at that point to the 5Ghz net. It's fine right now though. Btw the link speed seems to be getting reduced to 150Mbit eventually. Also I am noticing that I can...

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.354.27 Beta 1

    I have the RT-N66U. Interesting, I just played around with connecting and reconnecting that I noticed that the link speed for the 5Ghz network seems dynamic. It's 216Mbit right now.

    Asuswrt-Merlin 3.0.0.4.354.27 Beta 1

    I can confirm this observation. It's 150MBit on 5Ghz and 300Mbit on 2.4Ghz when it should be 300Mbit on both. Only difference is that I have a Intel Centrino 6300 in my laptop. I guess it hasn't been seen much so far because a lot of laptops and wifi sticks only come with single link support.

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    So to end my story I finally managed to actually grab log info and Network Map info before and after power cycling. Maybe there is something useful in it or maybe not. I'll try an older firmware on the weekend before finding out and fiddling with cronjobs. I'll just attach it as txt file so...

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    That's not what I said. I said the router has difficulties detecting the change. The modem reconnects to the ISP just fine. I even confirmed this by looking into the modem's WebUI. I guess if my last tries don't achieve the desired results and trying an old firmware doesn't help I'll have to...

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    I'm not sure if anybody remembers but I was here before with trouble regarding my pppoe connection. A suggestion was to replace my old router that was serving as a stand in modem with a proper DSL modem. So I got the DSL-321B by D-Link which was suggested and unfortunately it didn't help. To be...

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    Thanks I think I'll get the modem. I wanted to buy a new NAS server anyway so I might as well just chip in the additional 20-30€. Let's just hope that will bring a solution until the Telekom decides to upgrade my house to VDSL or fibre.

    Asuswrt-Merlin - custom build of the Asus RT-N66U firmware

    Why I think that the Passthrough is working is because I can establish a PPPoE connection with the N66U in the first place. And after I restart the N66U I get my connection back again too. It's still possible that there is an issue on the 701's part but I think that's improbable. As for why...
