    Different DHCP options per SSID

    Currently I have my (non-ASUS router based) network setup to provide a different set of DNS servers via DHCP depending on the SSID that the client connects to. For e.g. SSID1: 8.8.8.8 SSID2: 8.8.4.4 Trying to accomplish the same thing with an ASUS+Merline router, but I'm struggling to figure...

    Guest networks and DHCP

    I haven't been able to get it to work. With this I don't get DHCP on the guest network. pid-file=/var/run/dnsmasq.pid user=nobody interface=wl0.1 interface=ppp1* bind-dynamic no-dhcp-interface=ppp1* resolv-file=/tmp/resolv.conf servers-file=/tmp/resolv.dnsmasq no-poll no-negcache...

    Guest networks and DHCP

    Just curious if this is still the best solution to this problem. I have run across it myself recently. Thanks

    AC66U Media Bridge stability issue

    You said: I must have misunderstood what you meant when you said they behave exactly the same. Yes, these are different modes. They all behave differently with pro/con to each mode. TBC, no one is pissing on Repeater mode, just pointing out 1) Media Bridge mode doesn't work properly 2)...

    AC66U Media Bridge stability issue

    Repeater is stable, Media Bridge is not. Always has been that way. As noted before they are quite different. There is a measurable bandwidth hit in actual throughput (i.e. make sure you use a tool that actually runs traffic across and measures it over time), this is a measurable and...

    AC66U Media Bridge stability issue

    You must have missed my review :). Despite this issue, I still really like the HW (although TBF Merlin's customization plays a large roll in that) - it's what I choose to use. Also, a lot of other vendors/devices have issues with bridging as well. Unfortunately it just isn't tested well enough.

    AC66U Media Bridge stability issue

    No. I run my 2nd RT-AC66U with stock FW. Merlin's build is slower in bridge and repeater mode [last time I tested]. Based on my testing, it's not just broadcast traffic. The router starts ignoring all traffic from discrete bridged MAC addresses (i.e. some clients will work, others will not...

    AC66U Media Bridge stability issue

    Media Bridge is unstable on the AC66U. You have to use Repeater. It's unfortunate, but Asus doesn't seem interested in fixing it.

    OpenDNS Dynamic IP Update

    Is it possible to update OpenDNS along with asuscomm.com when the WAN IP changes? OpenDNS supports DYNDNS' API so it shouldn't require much effort to implement. Thanks

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 Beta 2 is available

    I didn't realize it followed a different path. Is it impossible to make custom DNS work like a predefined alt DNS?

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 Beta 2 is available

    How does it work with the other alt DNS providers? Is there no redundancy there as well?

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 Beta 2 is available

    Would it be possible to add support for specifying multiple DNS servers in the same custom variable using a , or ;? e.g. 1.1.1.1;1.1.1.2 Thanks

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 Beta 2 is available

    Thanks. Guess I'll have to leave my "US" WAP running :).

    Asuswrt-Merlin 374.40 Beta 2 is available

    Thanks for adding this feature. I have 2x AC66U, one acting as a repeater. Unfortunately because the repeater seems to funnel all traffic through its MAC, individual DNS assignments don't work for clients that are attached to the repeater. Is there an option besides assigning DNS behavior to...

    RT-AC68U + RT-AC66U for Media Bridge. Is this possible?

    That's why I asked :). If it were actual, I'd want to know how to reproduce it.
