    amtm amtm 3.2.x - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu

    Since I last posted I've been having random disconnects to in-game and streaming traffic. Ping tests pass straight through without packet loss and monitoring my connection shows no signs of disconnects or high latency but the disconnects kept happening. In the end I used process of elimination...

    amtm amtm 3.2.x - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu

    No matter what USB disk I try my AC-86U just seems to drop USB connection. It can sometimes last 10 days before it does it. If I re-insert the USB it detects it again. If I reboot the router it detects it again. I have enabled dcl and this is my log: (original check, when I first installed...

    amtm amtm step-by-step install guide - L&LD

    Thanks for your help! I actually have a home server for data, I don't really know why I called the USB data too but it's only being used to install entware (and entware packages) too via amtm. I have various USB drives, some SanDisk from 3 different eras, some Corsair but they are all doing the...

    amtm amtm 3.2.x - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu

    Thanks for the update. If I'm not mistaken the latest release is 3.10 not 3.20? I've reinstalled twice now after updating but I'm only getting 3.10 on my AC-86U.

    amtm amtm step-by-step install guide - L&LD

    Thank you for this guide! I have a frustrating problem. Perhaps someone has encountered similar? I've been having a strange issue with my USB 2 port (power side) on my AC-86U running the latest Merlin firmware. I have two flash drives hooked up, both prepared according to the guide. The one...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.12 is now available

    A lot of people are mentioning WiFi issues but is it really WiFi that is the issue? I have an 86U and at first I thought after the update I was getting WiFi issues but as it turns out its something to do with certain requests being blocked. To give an example, browsing the internet can work...

    5 Things To Know Before You Buy A Draft 11ax Router

    Yeah I realise its got nothing to do with AX but I just wish there would be focus on more standardisation rather than new standards completely, if you browse several GUIs of AC routers its confusing which channels they are going to use. Its far more complicated than N where you can just choose a...

    5 Things To Know Before You Buy A Draft 11ax Router

    I just want to see more flexibility on products that are actually sold by different manufacturers. Right now I have two AC routers and 1 range extender (won from a competition here on SMB) and none of them have a matching way to set 5ghz channels. My Netgear R7000 doesn't work with valid DFS...

    TL-PA9020 KIT x2

    Today I thought it happened again (after running without the problem range extender for now) but it was something else. This time my computer had the familiar "connected no internet" symbol. When I checked my router that was also connected to the same powerline adaptor it also mentioned it...

    TL-PA9020 KIT x2

    I want to get an electrician to test things out but I fear the moment I mention homeplugs to him he will roll his eyes and probably start spouting the conspiracy theories you often hear about with them. What exactly do I need to get him to check? I can tell him I was getting shocked from one...

    5 Things To Know Before You Buy A Draft 11ax Router

    Great article! Just shows those shrewd with their money (and reliability) should stick to existing standards. I learnt back with the draft N standard not to invest in draft standards again and whilst it may not be exactly the same now, there is next to no reason currently for me to spend...

    TL-PA9020 KIT x2

    But how should these issues present themselves? Surely if it was something with the electrics then it would be failing all the time rather than once a week suddenly going from a decent quality connection to nothing?

    TL-PA9020 KIT x2

    Indeed but this happened only on another outlet and the problem disappeared after a while so I don't think its related. I struggled to understand that problem back then too.

    TL-PA9020 KIT x2

    I'm lost with this now, I thought before I had resolved it and found the culprit but the problem seems to be back again a week later. Red light on a different TP link adaptor (same model). Last week I found that after resetting all adaptors and re-pairing close together that there was never a...

    TL-PA9020 KIT x2

    From England so no extreme weather, its been hotter than usual so maybe that killed it off. For a while once every couple of weeks it was loosing connection before this happened, maybe that was its way of telling me it was dying!
