    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.4 is now available

    386.4 doesn't process custom files for dnsmasq any more on my RT-AC88U. I changed forth and back to 386.3_2 and 386.4_0, and I toggled "Enable JFFS custom scripts and configs". It works in the old version but not in the new one. These lines are simply missing in the syslog of 386.4_0: >...
