    (DEAD) Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro $279

    Snatched a UDM-SE years ago when it was constantly OOS...but never ever opened the box. Yesterday I was trying to dust it off and overhaul my home network, and what popped out was instead a PoE switch... Coz my memory had failed me. For some reason I returned the UDM-SE for that switch...

    Help with system logs - Constant wifi drops

    I've been seeing the same with one of my 6E clients. It would remain connected for a few moments (any attempt of use would result in stutters) and then dropped with the same message. OTOH If connected via Wifi 6 (5Ghz) the connection was fast and stable. All other 6E clients function fine...

    AdGuardHome Asuswrt-Merlin-AdGuardHome-Installer (AMAGHI) cont.

    After all that's been said and done I had to sadly call it quits running AGH off Merlin... https://www.snbforums.com/threads/adguard-home-uses-97-of-ram.82212/post-839645 <- my own optimization tips on keeping it running stable. Since then my AXE11000 had mostly been fine until lately when I...

    Post in thread 'Adguard Home uses 97% of RAM' https://www.snbforums.com/threads/adguard-home-uses-97-of-ram.82212/post-839645 Recent builds (on Edge branch) seem to have alleviated RAM usage.

    GT-AXE16000 - Best Wifi 6/6e Settings

    Are you getting full speeds from LAN ports? What does your memory / CPU footprint look like? I just switched to 1 gig internet and my wifi 6E devices can reach 700M - 900 Mbps no problem while my apple devices on Wifi6 5Ghz range from 450 to 650. You can try a couple of things: - switch to a...

    AdGuardHome Adguard Home uses 97% of RAM

    I saw this thread and did as advised. However I got very inconsistent results. Sometimes I saw ~300MB free men post startup, other times ~70MB Now I’m basically forced to schedule reboots (twice a wk) to prevent router freezes from happening. This is on top of env vars + swappiness config Edit...

    [Bug] GT-AX6000 - swappiness=0 causing issues when swap is needed

    I ended up almost having to reset - Adguard home still took up an absurd AMT of memory but I refused to reboot. The swap usage stabilized at 300MB and it ran fine for couple of days...but last night AGH completely died on me and brought down Dnsmasq too. Reboot / killing process didn't work as...

    [Bug] GT-AX6000 - swappiness=0 causing issues when swap is needed

    Yeah, this is more of an experiment than anything else as I don't want to do a cold reboot. As of today the used swap seems to be growing by ~50MB daily, most likely caused by nightly blocking list updates. I'm waiting for the new Merlin build to give my router the reboot it really needs, and...

    AdGuardHome Adguard Home uses 97% of RAM

    Less than 30MB of free mem is normal...Until all CPU cores remain @100% usage at the same time. Had it happen to me twice in the past few days and on both occasions DNS resolution had stopped working completely = no internet for me. Had to make swapfile kick in to bring the router back to life.

    [Bug] GT-AX6000 - swappiness=0 causing issues when swap is needed

    Adding my data point: GT-AXE11000. Fresh setup with Adguard Home + Skynet + a couple other plugins. Had it run for more than a full day. Went home today only to get no internet connection. Went into router web portal and found out free mem @ less than 30MB + all CPU cores at full usage. At...

    GT-AX11000E - Random DNS Resolution Errors on Wireless Devices - Where Should I Look at? DNSCrypt or DNSMasq or Else?

    Update - I ended up factory resetting my router and wiping the entire external drive that hosts the scripts. Switched to adguardhome and all is well again. Never felt so smooth and stutter free. I'm guessing it's either DNSCrypt-proxy (90% likely) and / or Diversion that was the culprit. Right...

    GT-AXE11000 Region change

    I think when it comes to phones the region is set by the client devices - at least on some Android phones the modem firmware dictates whether 6Ghz bands can be seen. OTOH, I do find this particular model's 6Ghz implementation wonky. As of the latest Merlin beta build the 6Ghz band is still...

    GT-AX11000E - Random DNS Resolution Errors on Wireless Devices - Where Should I Look at? DNSCrypt or DNSMasq or Else?

    Hi All, I upgraded from AX88U to AXE11000, and had been having issues with random DNS resolution errors since the beginning. I installed Diversion for adblocking and DNSCrypt for DNS resolution / encryption. I had noticed that on my wireless clients, once every several minutes I would...

    Windows / MS Device Connecting to WiFi - Needs Authentication Redirect From Time To Time

    After 3 days of head scratching all of the sudden the router seemed to have sorted itself out...Neither of my MS devices is complaining now. Hope this lasts long. Thanks all the same!
