my dnsqmasq.log gets flooded with dropbox-related messages and all sorts of other dhcp-messages at the pace of about 100MB/day. how can i stop this? log excerpt: Jan 4 00:41:37 dnsmasq[20449]: cached api.dropbox.com is <CNAME> Jan 4 00:41:37 dnsmasq[20449]: cached api.dropbox-dns.com is...

My router's DHCP address space is 192.168.12.xx Lately, my Raspberry Pi is listed as 169.254.145.95 on my network map, even though it is actually connected at 192.168.12.108. The 169.xx address makes no sense whatsoever, and I wonder where it comes from. Additionally, the Pi's Icon in the...

The current space values were: NVRAM usage 77057 / 131072 bytes JFFS 47.28 / 48.00 MB The main space hogs in /jffs/.sys: 4,5MB WebHistory.db 12,3MB nt_center.db 28,4MB TrafficAnalyzer.db-journal 31,5MB TrafficAnalyzer.db I've checked the traffic analyzer "Statistic" page, and it showed...

when i woke up this morning, none of my smart home devices worked. i found it was my router's fault. the dnsmasq tables were empty, so were the ovpn keys. restoring from a nvram backup fixed the problem. but i would like to know what caused the nvram content to "disappear" overnight. i have...

When I access my AC-86U's file system via SFTP, I can't find the JFFS folder anymore. But when i access the file system with SSH, the folder is still there. And all scripts are properly running. JFFS used to be visible in SFTO, too. Does anyone have a clue how to fix this? SFTP Client...

on AC-86U, eth5 (2.4GhZ) and eth6 (5GhZ) did the trick for me.

oops, sorry... RT-AC86U with Firmware Version 384.9

i would like to check in a shell script if a given mac address is present on the network. wl -i eth1 assoclist does not work, i get the error "wl: wl driver adapter not found" i therefore will have to use arp-a. which commands can i use to check if $MAC_ADDRESS is present in the output of...

My Asus 87U connects the internet via PPoE through a Draytek Vigor 130 modem set to bridge mode. I would like to access the Draytek's Config Page in this configuration. There's a how-to page provided by Draytek, but it refers to a Draytek router's settings...

Heureka! It works. Thanks a lot!

Thanks! I assume I can work off the built-in script for my ddns provider. does anybody know if i can find the built-in scripts somewhere on the router‘s file system?

@ColinTaylor: totally makes sense. thank you so much! I guess then I have to grab the script for my DDNS provider (selfhost.de) and modify it to use the WAN ip? where on the router can i find that script?

the DHCP/router functionality on the cable is disabled. when DHCP on the cable modem was on, the address assigned to my asus router was in the 192.168.0.xxx range (the cable modem itself was on 192.168.0.1). the LAN ip range on my asus router is 192.168.12.xxx

My LAN router (ASUS 86U with Asus-Merlin) connects to the Internet via a cable modem that has been set to bridge mode by my cable provider. When I poll my own WAN IP from my LAN, then use a machine on the WAN to connect back to my LAN, it works seamlessly: i get a 37.xx.xx.xx address to access...
