On 3004.388.10_2 the Wake on LAN GUI command does wake up a Dell Precision workstation running Ubuntu. (FWIW: to get WOL working I had to set workstation BIOS wake on lan setting to "Enable with PXE").

Upgraded my RT-AX86U from 3004.388.9_2 to 3004.388.10_2, performing a full factory reset (clean install). I kept the same SSID and WiFi password as before. Despite that, all devices needed to be reset — HomeKit devices required hard resets, and iOS/macOS devices needed to forget and re-add the...

Thanks: agreed it could be an add-on script issue. DDNS certificate: Issued to : RT-AX86U-24F8 Root Certificate 20240101000028 Issued by : RT-AX86U-24F8 Root Certificate 20240101000028 Expires on : 2044/1/2 Is this a "new" cert? I'll keep an eye on memory usage. System Status for RAM is...

Unexpected reboot happened after 5.5 days uptime. System Log does not show a reason/cause. Jun 24 01:34:43 hostapd: eth7: STA 14:7d:da:30:d1:4e WPA: group key handshake completed (RSN) Jun 24 01:34:43 hostapd: eth7: STA 84:94:37:b8:d7:ef WPA: group key handshake completed (RSN) Jun 24 01:34:43...

Overwrote Asus stock firmware with a hard reset, then flashed Merlin .9_2, and did one more hard reset. Manual config including changing the WiFi passwords (i.e.: did not re-use old passwords). Will update this thread if unexpected reboots happen.

Started the migration. On Merlin .9_2 I removed USB drive (swap, scripts etc) then did a Hard Factory Reset. I flashed latest Asus stock FW version RT-AX86U_3.0.0.4_388_24339-g43ebc76_pureubi.w On reboot the router GUI was missing icons. I did a Hard Factory Reset then all looked good. I set...

No unexpected reboots after 80 hours since reinstalling conmon (before this I saw 5 unexpected reboots in ~2 months, and there could have been more, so needs more testing). UPDATED: #N hours Thanks for the suggestion: it was stable through the 80 hours of testing. However I decided to do a...

Asus AX-86U running Merlin. System Log shows this roughly every two hours. I don't know who this is. Jun 14 16:16:49 ovpn-server2[2371]: TCP connection established with [AF_INET]204.76.203.208:36116 Jun 14 16:16:49 ovpn-server2[2371]: 204.76.203.208:36116 TCP connection established with...

Thanks - worth a try before I destroy this setup in a few days. Done.

Yes: amtm, diversion, conmon, vnstat, Entware packages, disk check script, format disk, swap file. With these add-ons, I don't remember having unexpected reboots for the following earlier Merlin FWs. 3004.388.8_2 3004.388.5 3004.388.4

I'm seeing occasional unexpected reboots on Merlin 3004.388.9_2 - see post. Summary: Earlier I had flashed .9 then ran a hard factory reset, then setup manually connecting newly formatted usb drive . I did a "dirty upgrade" to .9_2 without running a hard factory reset. This release came...

Adding log after a new reboot. Default message log level: notice Log only messages more urgent than: debug The router rebooted at 21:16. About 20 minutes earlier the log shows a "possible active attack on TCP link" for the OVPN Server 2 that failed - I doubt this caused the router reboot...

I'm using the Authentication Method "WPA2-Personal" for both 2.4G and 5G radios: after install of .9, followed by a hard factory reset, "WPA2-Personal" was the default method. I do have a mixture of devices including older 2.4G devices that probably do not support WPA3, plus I think my...

Did you factory reset before flashing RMerlin or after (or both)?

Thanks for sharing - I haven't been on Asus stock since buying this router four-five years ago and immediately flashing with Merlin 386.x
