    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: >...

    I had lots of issues to connect to my RT-N66U with stock firmware from my mobile (2.4 GHz). Even my Canon printer started to choke on the access point. Factory resets of the RT-N66U helped for 1 or 2 days maximum. I was thinking of a hardware problem and already searching for a replacement...
