    Ahh ok, I found that this is firmware was a newer build than the ddwrt stuff and figured it pretty much did the same thing but more. Chalk it up to my noobiness lol. Can I flash ddwrt over this upgraded John's fork build? Or will it brick when I attempt to?

    Yes I want to use it as a repeater. I just recently moved to a new location and do not have internet setup here. At the moment my Xfinity account is still active but because of wiring or some BS I can't use the modem here. Getting them to schedule a tech appears to be a issue because there is...

    After a factory reset the green broadcasting icon and the yellow exclamation are lit. When I click the green broadcast (wifi) icon it shows me the wifi channels. When I click the yellow exclamation mark it wants me to change the default network login credentials and encrypt the wifi networks...

    That's a no-go. I tried connecting to Xfinity wifi as repeater but it only gave me an option to create 2 new APs but never asked me to login to Xfinitywifi. I feel like I'm so close but so far away. What am I doing wrong? * I can see that the Merlin lts firmware is successfully installed but...

    I was able to go in and enter my Xfinitywifi credentials but that doesn't give me any connection so I just switched to the NEW repeater mode option and am going to try connecting to Xfinitywifi that way.

    Router is rebooting now... Sorry if my step by step posts are annoying you guys. I just really would like to be a hero around here by actually getting this to work. Thank you to all that are helping me on this journey.

    I'm looking through the readme now but I guess I do that by holding the reset button for 10 secs?

    The reboot is done and I can connect to the router without logging in. When I go to 192.168.1.1 it's asking for username and password. What do i use?

    My router's firmware version is 3.0.0.4.270 so I don't think I can use the tool. When I try to load the zip it says invalid ip address.

    After I extract the trx file, is that what I upload to the router? I tried to just upload the zip file but that failed.

    Copy that! I come from a background of flashing ROMs on Android and such. So it's just alot of new jargon to get used to. I'm probably overthinking it as usual I'm just glad that I was able to find you all!

    Yeah sorry Grisu, I was going to rush into it when I posted that. Since then I've reread the OP a few times and even fell asleep with YouTube videos about flashing Merlin playing. I'm still a little lost but I'm gonna spend my ride to and from work today listening to more videos and hopefully...

    Ok so my Rt-Ac66r uses 39e3 or 39l3? I'm tech inclined but this is my first time messing with a router.
